After her raunchy performance at the NBA All-Star basketball game in Los Angeles this week – we’re not surprised that Rihanna’s bagged herself some admirers.

But while the ‘Rude Boy’ star’s skimpy costume and shock crotch-grabbing antics may have set pulses racing across the globe - RiRi's long-time pal Usher says the only place he’s interested in getting close to her is in the studio!

"I would love to work with her. I think she's an incredible artist,” he told UK TV show Loose Women.

“We've been friends and our teams work together and we've talked about working together in the past - but it could potentially happen.”

Although he’ll have to get in there quick, as rapper Lil’ Kim has her eye on the Barbados-born star too!

The outrageous singer told Perez Hilton,

“I would love to collaborate with her. She’s my favorite pop artist right now. I think she’s just phenomenal.”
