There was an awkward moment for Rihanna and Jay Z as the pair scooped a Grammy for their collaboration 'Umbrella.' Rhianna tried to hold Jay Z's hand as the pair walked up to collect their rap collaboration award but the rapper shook the singer's hand away.
Cameras then caught Rihanna throwing her hands up in the air as if to say, 'What's wrong?'
The pair then distanced themselves on the stage as they were presented with their trophy. The scenes were made all the more awkward by the fact Jay Z's girlfriend Beyonce was watching from just feet away.
Last week Rihanna tried to quash rumors that she was romantically linked to the rapper.
The Umbrella singer told US magazine Cosmopolitan that she was horrified at the recent gossip. But she said she'd managed to ignore the whispers, thanks to Jay-Z himself.
She said: "I felt self-conscious around him until he took me aside and said that I just had to ignore it."
Internet reports had linked the Barbados-born star with her record label boss. It was claimed that Jay-Z - real name Shawn Carter - was cheating on his girlfriend, Beyonce, with Rihanna but both have denied any romance.
