Chris Brown and Rihanna split three years ago after Brown's assault on the 23-year-old songstress, but now the two are secretly hooking up again, according to
Us.
After the assault, the courts made sure to keep the former couple apart. However, with the court order lifted, sources say the twosome have been getting together for almost a year. A music industry exec tells the mag:
"They can't get enough of each other. I don't see it ending well."
The source close to RiRi adds:
"Rihanna loves to live dangerously, and talking to and hooking up with Chris is all part of that."
Brown, 22, is reportedly dating model Karrueche Tran. His rep tells the mag, "He and Rihanna are just friends. He's not cheating."

Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka are getting intimate in the pages of Out magazine. What a sexy twosome!
In the annual Love Issue, Burtka talks about his love for Harris. He tells the mag:
"Without him, I can't breathe. The biggest thing is that he makes me laugh, but he's also smart. He can do everything. I'm not kidding; I think he's half robot. He makes me a little more grounded, and I bring out the wild side in him."
But the two admit that things aren't always perfect. Harris adds:
"Sometimes I'm deeply in love with David and head-over-heels, and sometimes I question whether it's going to work out and is meant to be."
Harris and Burtka are dads to 15-month-old twins. Adorbs!

A quilted Chanel bag seemed to be the only classy thing about Miss Osbourne's outfit, as the gray-haired reality star tightly clutched her cigarettes, and pooch, in Beverly Hills, on Tuesday.
At the
People's Choice Awards last week, Osbourne claimed she was ditching the granny hair ASAP, telling
US Weekly, "It's not staying! I'll change it tomorrow."
What made the
Fashion Police host choose the dowdy 'do in the first place?
"I can't keep bleaching my hair and I want to grow it so I take breaks in between," she confessed. "I did it a year ago but it was more of a lavender gray, but I went straight gray this time."

It's definitely puppy love!
Miley Cyrus gifted beau Liam Hemsworth with a new pooch for his 22nd birthday, and introduced the dog to the world via Twitter on Tuesday, with the caption: "Meet Ziggy =]."

But is she carefully hiding a baby bump?
Rumors began to swirl that the celebrity fashion stylist is expecting her second child with hubby Rodger Berman, after she kept completely
covered up during a recent vacation in St. Barth.
A source told RadarOnline.com that Zoe is "just past the three-month mark so she's hardly showing yet at all. She's thrilled, but, quite frankly a little shocked. She didn't think she would fall pregnant a second time, let alone so quickly."
If the rumors are true, we hope it's a girl!
