Rihanna reportedly called and texted Katy all throughout New Year’s weekend and is even taking her away on a trip to help cheer her up. But a new report claims Rihanna is one of the reasons for the divorce — find out why!
Katy Perry can definitely count on her best friend Rihanna. A new report in the UK’s The Sun claims Katy called Rihanna the moment news of the divorce from Russell Brand broke. HollywoodLife.com told you that although Katy appeared to be in good spirits on New Year’s Eve, that Katy is “devastated.”
“Katy is hardly speaking to anyone right now,” a source tells The Sun. “But she called Rihanna as soon as she heard Russell was filing for divorce. When Katy told her the news, she suggested flying down to Barbados to stay with her and her family.”
Rihanna planned Katy’s sexed-up bachelorette party before her 2010 wedding in India to Russell.
“Katy was embarrassed about calling her parents as they’d been so against Russell in the first place,” the source continues. “But Rihanna was a great support for her and she really helped to calm her down.”
We told you one of the reasons for the couple’s split was that Russell wasn’t comfortable with Katy’s hard partying lifestyle since he’s a recovering heroin and sex addict and the source goes on to claim that Russell didn’t like Katy hanging out with Rihanna.
“Rihanna has been there for Katy, texting her from Miami where she’s on holiday,” the source says. “Now they are planning a girly getaway so Katy can clear her head.”
Do you think Rihanna is a good influence on Katy and it’s a good thing she’s there for her right now?

Russell can’t stop her from being friends with Rihanna. And always put your friends before any guy because when that guy wants to leave u your friend will be there for u unless u choose the guy over your friend. I honestly wish i had a good friend like Rihanna. And if any of u havent seen the Part of Me video go watch it now! (:

It’s a blessing to even have a True Friend.Rihanna is a pisces and she’s Loyal by nature inspite of her going through her own daily struggles within herself and being expose to so many negative things.God put rihanna and katy perry in each other life for this moment and many more.Everyone needs a friend to be there for them especially when you’re going through a mental and emotional phase in life.Russell is a Gemini very self centered and jealous he’s been plotting this on poor katy just so he can come out as the lead player.My love goes out to them both Katy and Rihanna.

Misery loves company, and even though it is nice to have friends to talk to in times of stress, there is a fine line between allowing them to have too much influence. The best communication between couples is for the couples to talk among themselves devoid of the influence of family and friends. It takes becoming mature in the nature of relationships to figure this one out. I think Russell is extremely admirable in staying clean, and I have a feeling his choice to not tolerate Katy’s escapes into the party scene of the music biz, are actually a healthy choice he is making for himself. Katy should have known given his past addictions issues like this would have reared their head, and they should have had a plan to deal with it.

i agree 100 percent, Rihanna being thrown into the middle of this is sad. Katy is a big girl and she wants to be like Rihanna so bad it’s pathetic.

has nothing to do with rihannas life – Maybe she is being there for her just like Katy was there for her when she had her own personal troubles all over the news – if i remember correctly – Katy was by her side – and I don’t remember seeing a whole lot of katy and rihanna in the news since katy got married – influence probably not – friend – yes

Rihanna is the best. She’s trying to help and that what she did.
She’s being there for Katy even though times and that what BFFs do
They help each other through tough times and that what she did.
If I was Katy I will not ask for a better friend than Rihanna:). I love Rihanna.
