He hits, he scores! Rihanna celebrates with a friend after boyfriend Matt Kemp hits a home run at the Dodgers Stadium in Los Angeles yesterday


After months of being coy about her burgeoning romance with Los Angeles Dodgers player Matt Kemp, Rihanna has made her debut as a baseball WAG.

Sitting in the front row at the first home game for the new season, the R&B singer cheered and whooped as her new love scored a home run against the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Looking like a regular baseball fan in her blue Dodgers hoodie, Rihanna, 22, watched her outfielder beau, 25, intently during the game's nine innings.

Her attendance proved to be a lucky charm for the team, who won the game 9-5.

Although she's set to kick off her four-month Last Girl On Earth world tour on Friday, she'll no doubt try to squeeze in a few games before the baseball season wraps in October.

Hopefully Rihanna will have some time later this year to support Kemp if the Dodgers hit the World Series finals - which they last won in 1988.

Also at the game was Black Eyed Peas rapper Will.I.Am, who showed off his catching skills on the field, and country singer LeAnn Rimes.

Rihanna's appearance at the Dodgers Stadium came just a week after she finally admitted they were an item.

She told a LA radio station: 'Um, he's my boyfriend. It's new, and it's fun, and it's nothing too serious, you know.

'I don't want anything that's going to take up so much of my energy and time right now in a bad way. I just want to have fun, and that's what it's about.'

The Umbrella singer's relationship with Kemp was first reported in January after the couple were photographed kissing on a yacht off the coast in Mexico.

A few weeks later, they looked animated as they attended a Los Angeles Lakers basketball game together.

In February, Kemp surprised Rihanna with a 22nd birthday party in Phoenix, Arizona.

The $5.4million-a-year player has also introduced the singer to his parents.

Rihanna's burgeoning relationship with Kemp is the first man she has properly dated since splitting from ex-boyfriend Chris Brown.

Brown was sentenced to five years' probation and six months of community service after pleading guilty to attacking Rihanna as they returned home from a pre-Grammys party in February last year.
