Okay, hold the phone for one fucking minute. I’m glad that Rihanna has moved on and I’m overjoyed that she’s not going back to Chris Brown. Everyone should have love in their life, but Rihanna is dating Dixon from the new 90210? Really? This dude’s name is Tristan Wilds, but really he’s just, well … Dixon from the new 90210. (He was also in The Wire and The Secret Life of Bees, but still … Dixon?)
This new romance came to light this weekend when Rihanna held a small going away party for a friend. Tristan was there and it was apparent that they were a couple. Together. Dating. To make things worse, a “source” says that he’s going to join RiRi on the road once his 90210 filming has wrapped up.
I’m sure Tristan is a delightful, if boyish and ill-dressed, young man and really, as long as he doesn’t know Rihanna’s lights out, he’s a step in the right direction.
Good luck, kids!
Before signing over his soul to el nuevo 90210, Tristan Wilds wowed in HBO’s gritty cops-and-drug-dealers series “The Wire.” If you haven’t seen it, it’s an absolute must. Filmed right here in “Charm City,” aka Baltimore (I’ll go ahead and let the irony on that one sink in.)
He really has “Prada” written on the lense of his glasses?!
that was the FIRST thing i noticed, hahah.
did this guy steal the frames from a lens crafter’s showroom and now can’t figure out how to etch of the Prada label? LOSER!!!!!
Haha, love it. I wonder how much he got paid to wear them? :)
that’s better than what it thought originally, at first look i thought he was trying to pull of some kind of Alex DeLarge homage
better than what *i* thought
(not only can i not see, but apparently i can’t type either)
That’s the plastic sticker that comes on new glasses. How can anyone take him seriously? Has she not learned her lesson about staying away from bow-tie wearing douches? Unless homeboy has on a tuxedo… Whatever, I’m just sensing that she’s got a “type.”
OMG! She’s dating Louis Farrahkan, Jr.?!
Must be off to a slow day if this is all you got! So she’s going a little nerdy, what’s the big deal?? You kids might not remember Urkel but remember when he used to turn “hot?” It could happen…
Stefan!
He really should have taken that sticker off the glasses. That is worse than leaving the sleeve tag on a suit.
i know that when you wrote ‘know’ you meant ‘knock’, right, Wendie? ..
typo was punishment for trying to type such a tasteless joke.
He really should have removed that sticker. It is even worse than leaving the sleeve tag on a suit.
and he doesn’t look like chris brown one bit…
totally. doppelganger. bleh.
Finally!! I was like, did NO ONE else notices this?!
Clearly she has a type.
When I first saw the picture, before I read anything I thought “she’s dating Chris again?” Seriously… he looks like his brother at the very least!
I know! I was surprised no one else commented on the resemblance..
Isn’t Chris Brown doing that whole nerdy glasses thing now too? He is copying this guy’s look, lol
clearly you’ve never seen “the wire” if you identify him as dixon and not michael. it’s actually somewhat difficult to take him seriously as dixon because i only see his character from “the wire” each time he comes on screen.
Yes, he had a great role as Michael in The Wire. Hard to see him with that goofy outfit and glasses.
Oh lawd.
Do you smell that? That’s the smell of Chris Brown shitting himself over this.
i would have liked to see her with drake post breakup. whatev anything is better than chris
The fact that the Prada label is still on the lense means that the lenses haven’t been switched out and is how they were sold. It means they have no prescription in them and he’s wearing them as an accessory. Most people would have switched them out for clear lenses though. It’s like leaving a tag on a sweater. Perhaps someone should have clued him in?
He looks like Chris Brown! Like a nerdy version but still.
Ri won’t have to worry about getting her ass beat by that squirrel. He might have to worry though if he pisses her off.
Is he in a Halloween costume or something? I can’t judge until I see the guy in normal clothes.
Don’t hate, Tristan is a gangsta.

Well, at least the worst thing he’ll ever do to Rihanna is squirt her with water from his trick clown tie.
He looks like a gay doofus.
I know he looks like a total doofus in this picture, but if you had ever seen him in the wire you would be in love. He is a great actor and is actually very sexy. Definitely not in this picture though.
come on guys, he seems sweet. cut him a break, just because he looks like her ex doesn’t mean he’ll act the same. maybe he’ll treat her well.
come on! he look gently and i hope he is a great guy in all aspect
WOOOOOWWW tristan is uglyyyyy ewwww he’s a neird duhhhh uglyness ewww y don’t rihanna date jay-z instead of tristan….
TRISTAN BALL SHIT!!!!!!
