A publicist lying? Yes, the publicist for record producer Polow Da Don -- who has produced songs for Chris Brown and Rihanna in the past -- lied about the so-called duet they were supposedly recording last weekend.
E! Online first reported that Brown and Rihanna were in a Santa Monica studio earlier this month recording a duet with producer Polow Da Don. Three people from TMZ then contacted Polow Da Don's publicist, who not only said the E! story was true but gave us details -- that Chris and Rihanna were engaged in "playful touching" and the session was packed with "emotion."
We've now learned it was B.S. -- Brown was in the studio last weekend, but he was not with Rihanna, and the producer is not Polow Da Don. Now the publicist says she was really referring to a song Rihanna recorded in the past -- but that ain't what she said before.
Brown's people are frustrated that people in his world are shoveling lies. They asked us to say the following: Brown and Rihanna are not married, she is not pregnant, he is not doing an animal rescue nor is he doing a mea culpa tour.

TMZ now has all the details about the secret late-night recording sessions between Rihanna and Chris Brown -- and they were jam-packed with emotion and serious drama, with some playful touching -- seriously.
The whole thing came together when they decided to reconcile shortly after the attack. Sources tell us music producer Polow Da Don convinced both Chris and Rihanna to get in the studio and record a love song stat, stressing that timing was important because the heightened emotions would translate powerfully into the music.
Both Rihanna and Chris agreed and snuck in a couple of "late night" sessions that we're told were "very, very emotional ... the feeling in the room was pure love." Clearly, love hurts.
As for how they got along, they were "playfully touching each other."
We're told the song was originally written for Rihanna before the fight, but after the beat down the producer believed the track -- which ironically focuses on overcoming difficult challenges as a couple -- would be the perfect duet.
