Pop star Rihanna isn’t losing any sleep over the rumors circulating about an alleged sex tape featuring intimate acts between her and rapper J. Cole, who opened on her Loud tour.

Her fans quickly went up in arms when Hustler told Radara Online it was in possession of an authentic copy of a sex tape video with the pair.

Both artists took to Twitter last week to deny that such a type even exists.

“We don’t believe U, U need more people…AND of course an actual sextape!” #slownewsday,” Rihanna tweeted.

J. Cole made a few rap jokes of his own when addressing the rumors.

“Gossip, gossip, n—a just stop it,” he wrote.

Do you think something went down between the two? Or is this just another publicity stunt?

It appears everyone, but Hustler, has dismissed claims and moved on.
