Rihanna And A$AP Rocky Romance? Singer Gets Animalistic With Rapper On Music Video Set [PHOTO]

Rihanna went for an animalistic look on her latest music video set with rapper A$AP Rocky Wednesday night in New York. Wearing a floor-length Tom Ford dress, the beauty was more covered up than usual, with only a hint of her calf showing.

The singer was flanked by security and walking next to her best friend, Melissa Ford, who was dressed down in all black.

While on the video set with A$AP Rocky, Rihanna changed into a more casual look as well, wearing Timberland boots, jeans and a bomber jacket. It seems the pair play love interests in the video, which is for their song, “Work” as they were quite close on the set. The artists previously collaborated on a remix of her song “Cockiness” and performed together at the 2012 MTV Video music awards. The 24-year-old artist also opened for Rihanna for part of the North American leg of her “Diamonds” tour from March to May. During that time, it was speculated that they were dating, but neither ever confirmed it.

Meanwhile, Rihanna has reportedly become hard to handle since her breakup with Chris Brown just weeks ago, says one of her employees. Brown confirmed their split last month, stating he is not with her nor his other on-and-off girlfriend, Karrueche Tran.

“We’re always sent on some errand to the middle of nowhere just to find something trivial, like the ‘right’ ice bucket or color notepad. … Rihanna has never been easy to work for, but since she and Chris Brown broke up, she’s been beyond horrible,” the staff member told Star magazine.
