Travis Scott Was Pissed When His Romance With Rihanna Was 'Exposed'

For those who didn't know, Travis Scott secretly dated Rihanna before dating Kylie Jenner back in the day. While the secret was spilled in 2015, the editor who broke the story recently revealed what happened when he let the cat out of the bag.

While on the “Throwing Fits” podcast, cohosts Lawrence Schlossman and James Harris and journalist Jonah Weiner began discussing experiences they'd had when celebrities hated something they'd written about them. Lawrence then revealed that Travis actually got pissed when he “exposed” what was supposed to be the "THE SCOTTS" rapper's secret romance with Rihanna back in 2015.

“I broke the news about him and Rihanna, which they told me not to do,” the former Complex editor said. “Apparently, what La Puma, our boy Joe the Puma [a Complex editor], told me was that it hurt Complex’s relationship with Travis. This was in 2015/16 I wrote this. But apparently, for the next couple of years, he would complain about that.”

Lawrence added, “It’s not because [Travis was] like, ‘Don’t tell anyone I’m smashing Rihanna.’ It’s because Rihanna’s like, ‘Don’t tell anyone that I’m smashing Travis Scott, please.' [It’s] obviously embarrassing as f**k.”

In September 2015, sources told Us Weekly that Rihanna and Scott were "hooking up." Adding, “They are totally together. They weren’t hiding at all.”

As fans know, Travis started dating his now on-again-off-again girlfriend Kylie in 2017.
