“I flirted with Rihanna once,” the “Levels” singer told The Sun. The good thing is he didn’t say Rihanna walked off on him, but she still wasn’t interested. But for Nick, there may still be hope.
“It didn’t work – but it didn’t not work. It didn’t go anywhere but it was a great conversation. It laid a good foundation,” he said. That’s the spirit!
Even more surprising than a budding relationship between Nick and Rihanna is what he found the most captivating about the “Work” singer. We would think he would swoon over Rihanna’s sultry accent or killer fashion sense, but it was her scent that won him over! “She smells amazing, that is one thing I can tell you,” he recalled. “Everyone says it, but I have actually smelt her now and it’s amazing.”

Okay, so it doesn’t look like a romance between Nick and Ri will happen anytime soon, but that didn’t get the singer down. And that’s because he’s with some one else. Nick confirmed that he’s been seeing another gorgeous star, Lily Collins, 27. The two have known each other for years, but recently took their friendship to the next level. “We went out a couple of times. She is amazing,” he gushed. Aww! Nick and Lily would look so cute together.
But nothing is official right now. Nick is just enjoying being single after his split from his Miss Universe girlfriend, Olivia Culpo, 24, in 2015. “I’ve enjoyed meeting different people and spending time with people with all the cards on the table. All people need human interaction at some level,” he said. “And at my age too, dating is important, getting to know yourself by meeting different people, seeing what it’s all about.”
And Nick has definitely had his fair share of ‘human interaction,’ even scoring a couple of dates with Kate Hudson, 37. So maybe further down the line, Rihanna will give him one date too!
HollywoodLifers, do you think Nick has a chance with Rihanna?
