Is Rihanna dating rock drummer Travis Barker?

Rihanna and Travis Barker

According to MediaTakeOut singer Rihanna is currently letting rock drummer Travis Barker of Blink 182 fame stand under her umbrella!  MTO was the site that previously posted some seriously sexy pics of a topless woman they claimed to be Rihanna.  The singer didn’t acknowledge these claims until recently when she told a fan via Twitter that the images were indeed of her.

MTO is citing that two sources close to the singer are confirming this budding romance.  The report goes on to state that the two have been friends for a long time and even gave romance a run once before having gone out on a few dates “years ago.”

In addition to the romantic connection the sources are claiming that Rihanna and Travis will be doing a photo shoot together and that she will appear in Barker’s upcoming video for “Can a Drummer Get Some?”  If these reports are accurate, than yes my man drummers certainly can get some!

Here’s the audio for “Drummer” that features Lil Wayne, Swizz Beats, Game, Rick Ross and a barrage of Not SFW lyrics:
