| Date night: Rihanna enjoyed a dinner at Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica on Saturday with her rumoured new beau Karim Benzema |
They've barely been apart over the past week, but Rihanna and her rumoured new beau Karim Benzema still had time for another date night on Saturday [Jun 13]. The singer and the Real Madrid footballer were spotted enjoying a dinner at the singer's favourite restaurant Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica. The rumoured couple ensured they had privacy for their cosy meal, sitting in a private room and not leaving for four hours.
Rihanna, 27, looked dressed down for her dinner, wearing a plain black crop top which showed off her tattoo collection. She layered some gold pendants over the top while she upped the glam factor with some tight curls in her hair and a slick of deep red lipstick.
French footballer Karim, 27, meanwhile was spotted leaving the eatery separately to the stunning singer, climbing into a car with a bodyguard. The sportsman was also casual for the date, wearing a denim jacket over a white t-shirt.

The pair have done little to dampen speculation about a blossoming new romance following a series of nights out together in the past week. On Thursday evening the singer was seen making an exit through the back door of the popular 1OAK club in Los Angeles with a small entourage, moments before Benzema left through the front. Benzema, currently on a pre-season break following a trophy-less season in the Spanish capital, was joined by a group of friends as he sauntered home following his evening out.

Rihanna and Karim originally set set tongues wagging after they were seen leaving a New York diner at 6am last week, before they both jetted across country to party at Hooray Henry's on Monday night. Karim shared a photo from his private jet filled with pals earlier on Monday as he flew into the West Coast, captioning it: 'Direction L.A.' Rihanna and the footballer were first linked in June 2014, when the singer tweeted her support to the player around the time of the World Cup.
