While many happy news come from celebrity couples during the holidays, this is not the case with Rihanna and Matt Kemp. The twosome, who had been previously hit with split rumor, has called it quits few weeks ago, latest report says.
Rihanna's representative has not responded to the report, but a source tells Us Magazine that the 26-year-old Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder "can't keep up with her crazy travel schedule." Explaining further about the reason of their separation, the source says, "Matt's sick of always following after her like a puppy dog all over the world. He wants something more normal."
It seems that the 22-year-old Barbadian beauty is not that hurt with the failed romance as the insider gushes, "She basically was just over it," and the relationship "was never as serious as it looked. It was always just [about] having fun."
Back in April, Rihanna herself admitted she was not looking for a serious relationship, "It's new, and it's fun, and it's nothing too serious, you know. I don't want anything that's going to take up so much of my energy and time right now in a bad way. I just want to have fun, and that's what it's about."
Earlier this month, Rihanna and Matt Kemp who started dating in January had been said splitting. However, a source close to them said they did not separate and were just growing apart due to their grueling schedules.

Lindsay Lohan's Parents Not to Blame for An Alleged Altercation
Lindsay Lohan's father is adamant the actress is not to blame for an alleged altercation with a member of staff at a rehab clinic, claiming the employee "had it in for Lindsay" and snapped when the star was 10 minutes late after a trip to a hair salon.
Police in Palm Desert, California have launched an investigation after a worker at the Betty Ford clinic claimed to have been hurt in a dispute with Lohan on December 12. Dawn Holland, who has been dismissed from Betty Ford for talking to the media about the incident, alleges Lohan was caught sneaking back in to the clinic after her curfew, and also claims the star had been drinking.
A 911 call was placed from the center at 1.03am on December 12 and Lohan's lawyer claims the actress called in police herself. Lohan's father Michael is adamant his daughter should not be blamed for the incident, insisting she was merely 10 minutes late on her return from a hair appointment.
He tells E! Online, "She (Holland) had it in for Lindsay the whole time. As soon as Lindsay walked in the door the woman grabbed Lindsay by the arm, and not the other two girls (she was with), and said, 'You are going to take a urine test'. Lindsay just brushed her off. That is what she told me: 'Dad, I just brushed her off.' It all boils down to that they were 10 minutes late. Lindsay had three weeks left and this woman was in Lindsay's face, constantly complaining."
Lohan's mother, Dina, has also spoken out about her daughter's troubles, telling the New York Post, "There's a mole in the place. Someone in there's trying to hurt her before she gets out."
Meanwhile, Lohan's lawyer has confirmed the actress called police from rehab on the night she is alleged to have lashed out at a member of staff. Holland alleges Lohan was in a "very angry" state when she was caught sneaking back in to the clinic after her curfew, and also claims the star had been drinking. Cops attended the scene after a 911 call was placed, and although no arrests were made, police officials in Palm Desert, California have confirmed they are investigating the case, according to EW.com.
Lohan's attorney Shawn Chapman Holley has revealed it was the actress herself who called in authorities, saying in a statement, "At this time, we are declining to comment on the underlying facts surrounding this incident, as we await the completion of the police investigation. It should be noted, however, that it was Ms. Lohan who called 911 to request police assistance at the time this incident occurred."
Oprah Winfrey Offered Chance to Be A U.S. Ambassador by Colin Powell
Oprah Winfrey was once offered the chance to become a U.S. ambassador by former Secretary of State Colin Powell.

Bush administration.
