Chris Brown and Rihanna were allegedly spotted ‘making out’ in New York hot spot, Griffin on Monday night.

The former couple were reportedly spotted “hugging and kissing” at the  New York City venue with an onlooker telling Celebuzz that Brown approached his ex-girlfriend, who was sitting at a neighbouring table, and “climbed over the centre to get to her”.

Brown was apparently seen “dancing on the table for Rihanna” and the two appeared “very smitten” as they were “hugging and kissing, and they went to the back of the club alone together”.

Further reports allege the pair were locked in a bathroom together for 30 minutes while two bodyguards guarded the door.

They hooked up. I wasn’t in the bathroom with them, but I know they f***ed around and whatnot.

“They were in the club partying hard… one thing led to another and that was that… he wanted her just as much as she wanted him.”

Brown was sentenced to five years’ probation and 180 days of community labour for assaulting Rihanna in 2009.

However, the pair have reportedly kept a close friendship, and appeared to share a kiss at the MTV Video Music Awards in September.

Brown’s girlfriend Karrueche Tran tweeted on Tuesday morning (October 3): “there’s a difference between a man and a boy. I prefer men (sic).”

When a Twitter follower told her to “Let it go for your own good”, the model replied: “oh baby I am.”

A representative for Griffin confirmed that both Rihanna and Brown were at the club on Monday evening.
