Are Rihanna and Chris Brown together again? That’s what everyone is wondering after the superstars’ very public outing at the Lakers-Knicks game on Christmas Day. The two were seen cozying up to each other in courtside seats, laughing, talking, and then were spotted holding hands as they left. While no official comment has been released, many are speculating the on and off again couple might be back on.

And this isn’t the first time both singers made headlines for being together. Back in 2009, Brown pleaded guilty to felony assault of Rihanna stemming from a vicious fight as the couple drove home from a pre-Grammy party. Brown is still on probation from that incident.

Is Rihanna sending the wrong message to her fans and victims of domestic violence everywhere?
