Jennifer Lopez present at Drake's intimate dinner, fuels Rihanna's jealousy
When news started to circulate that Rihanna and Drake were no longer an item, their fans were devastated that one of music’s hottest and sweetest couples could not make it work. But with the holiday season coming, new parties are getting in on the mix, and it seems that the “Hotline Bling” singer has his eyes set on Jennifer Lopez.

According to E! News, Drake hosted an intimate dinner earlier this week in one of Hollywood’s hotspots, Delilah. Jennifer was in attendance, which only added fuel to the rumours that the two have started dating. The speculations began two weeks ago when the rapper was seen at the 47-year-old’s Las Vegas concert entitled “All I Have.” He was again in attendance over the weekend.
A source of the publication confirmed that the two musicians are professionally working together, but could not say whether there was a romantic connection. “Jennifer an Drake are working on new music together,” they said.
When Rihanna and Drake split ways, it was reported that the two would see other people and they agreed not to be exclusive. Their busy schedules were apparently too packed, and the two could hardly find time for each other. But despite this non-exclusive understanding, Hollywood Life reported that the “Work” singer is not taking the news of her ex-boyfriend and Jennifer Lopez too well.
“She is really freaked out about Jennifer, especially because they’re friends,” a source told the publication. “She thinks of Jennifer as a mentor, so the fact that they’re now Eskimo sisters is pretty overwhelming.” "Eskimo sisters" is a term used to describe two women that have slept with the same man.
The same source went on to clarify that Rihanna knows Drake will always love her, but that this does little to curb her jealousy.

Drake will stay in Las Vegas until the new year, as he is scheduled to ring in 2017 at Hakkasan nightclub. Meanwhile, Jennifer cancelled her own New Years Eve gig, which was supposed to be for a nightclub in Miami. The mother-of-two decided to take some time off for herself and her family.
