Rihanna's dad unhappy about her new boyfriend Hassan Jameel

Popstar Rihanna's budding romance with Middle Eastern billionaire, Hassan Jameel, has hit a roadblock. Rihanna's father Ronald Fenty apparently doesn't approve, because he is not "black enough".

Clearly, Hassan's bank balance did not impress daddy Fenty. In a magazine interview he said, "I didn't know he was a billionaire. Too little money, or too much money can't make you happy, you need something in-between. She told me she had a new boyfriend about a month ago, but I didn't know who he was. I always tell her, 'Don't date an entertainer, don't date an athlete."

Rihanna has earlier dated men including Drake, Chris Brown and Leonardo DiCaprio. Her father is upset because he found out about Rihanna and Hassan when a friend sent him pictures of the couple kissing in the pool. He said, "I was looking for someone of colour, a darker colour, but whatever makes her happy."
