Last night at the MTV Video Music Awards, Rihanna was seated close to Drake and Lil Wayne, maybe a little too close for comfort.
It wasn't that long ago that Chris Brown and Drake had a bottle throwing brawl in New York City. After confessing to the world recently that she is still in love with Brown, it would be understandable if the singer wasn't a Drake fan these days.
TMZ caught what they think are Riri's true feelings for the Young Money camp on camera.
When Wayne, Drizzy, Nicki Minaj and company went to the stage to accept the VMA for Best Hip Hop Video, Rihanna appears to turn towards a person sitting next to her and say, "I hate these a**holes."
TMZ also notes that Rihanna refused to clap and turned her head so she wouldn't have to look at Drake and company.
Check out the video below and tell us what you think.

Five friends died senselessly this past weekend after one of them got behind the wheel of a car they were all riding in and drove drunk and recklessly, all while tweeting about it.
21-year-old Jonathan Watson was driving his 2005 Nissan Sentra at a high rate of speed after leaving a party in Ontario, California on Saturday, September 2nd.
Watson's Twitter timeline detailed his state of mind at the time.
Not soon after sending his last tweet, Watson crashed.
“The driver of the vehicle was 21 years old and the other four occupants ranged in age from 20 to 23 years old,” Ontario police Cpl. Bill Russell told KNX1070’s Ed Mertz.
“We do know that the vehicle was traveling at a high rate of speed and did run a traffic signal just prior to colliding,” Russell said.
The car following the crash.
The car rolled over at least five times before smashing through a cement pillar and landing in the backyard of a home.
Witness Rowley Barre told CBS2's Jeff Nguyen that the Sentra “ran a red light. Then he swerved and crashed. The car is flipping over and they hit a brick wall.”

Killed were 23-year old Marquell Bogan, 23-year old JuJuan Bennett, 21-year-old Ervin McKinness, 20-year-old Dylan George and the driver Watson.

After the success of his strip club anthem "Rack City," Tyga has decided to take it one step further and will produce, direct and appear in his own adult film.
Rack City: The XXX Movie will star smut divas Jada Fire, Ice La Fox, Havana Ginger, Kristina Rose, London Keyes, Skin Diamond, Daisy Marie, Stacie Lane and Austin Taylor.
The movie picks up where the music video for "Make It Nasty" leaves off.
"I just felt like now was a time that I wanted to be involved in the sexual part of it—how far can I actually go without actually doing porn?" Tyga told Business AVN. "I think every guy thinks about that. Doing this project it was important for me to put something out with my vision. For young dudes like myself that are into it and to do it my own way without actually exposing myself. This movie really takes 'Rack City,' the song that I made, into the world of triple-X film. It's a real movie that people will enjoy, and I'm proud of it."
Tyga will have a non sex role in the film and is looking forward to opening his career up to a broader audience. He feels like he's taking what rappers like Lil Jon and Snoop Dogg have done in the past and going even further.
"I would just say to [critics] that sex is a universal thing," Tyga said. "I just kept thinking, well, why not do this movie? I feel like there's nobody young that's been able to—like you said, Snoop Dogg and Lil Jon were the only ones that did it, and they're a little older than me, and they were really only hosting it. This is really me, this is really my vision. This isn't something someone handed to me and I'm just hosting and putting my name on. I'm really producing and doing the whole film. A lot of people are gonna be interested in it and of course girls are gonna want to see it. They might think I'm in it [having sex], they want to see me in it, so it's going to really catch a lot of eyes. I think it's also going to draw a whole other fan base that isn't familiar with me too."
Rack City: The XXX Movie hits shelves this month through distributor Hush Hush Entertainment.
Tyga has also launched the website RackCityXXX.com with adult performer and Rack City XXX co-director Justice Young.

Kendrick Lamar has become one of the hottest names in the music industry, but he's not an overnight sensation. It's taken years of hard work and dedication to get the 25-year old Compton rapper to where he is today.
On October 22nd, the Dr. Dre protege will be releasing his highly anticipated album good kid, m.A.A.d City.
In a new interview with VEVO LIFT he explains how 50 Cent influenced his career.
"Mixtapes for me is really the start of my career," Kendrick tells VEVO. "This goes all the way back to when I was 16, and I was in my homeboy Dave garage. We was looking at what 50 Cent was doing, you know and we was seeing that no money was behind these tapes and they was just getting buzz where they was from. Not only in New York, but it came out all the way to the West Coast. And we wanted to follow that recipe. 'Let's do it too. Let's put 12 tracks on a cd and burn 'em up and pass 'em in the city and see what it do.' It wasn't on no super big scale, but it was the start and it got people to start talking about my name a little bit."

Fans have been waiting and hoping for the release of a Black Hippy album. A project featuring the foursome of Kendrick Lamar, Schoolboy Q, Jay Rock and Ab-Soulsounds like a great idea right? Well, not if you ask the group members.
Page 31TVcaught up to Ab, Jay and Schoolboy and they all agreed there will not be a Black Hippy album.
"Why n*ggas want a Black Hippy album? It's so corny," Schoolboy said. "What you want the hardest n*ggas to do an album? Why we can't just do our own sh*t? It'll never come out right. When the hardest n*ggas always get together it never comes out right. That's how I feel."
