Leonardo DiCaprio is suing a French magazine that claimed he had knocked up Rihanna.
There have been rumours for months that the Wolf of Wall Street actor and the Umbrella singer are having a secret relationship.
Now French gossip mag Oops reported that 27-year-old Rihanna was pregnant with DiCaprio's child and that the actor didn't want a part in bringing up the baby.
The celebrity tabloid featured photos of Rihanna and DiCaprio with the cover line (in translation), "Rihanna pregnant with Leonardo's baby: He doesn't want the baby."
Gossip Cop reported the 40-year-old was upset about the story that appeared on the cover of the mag on May 13 and was seeking the maximum by French law of 18,000 Euros (NZ$28,360) in damages and legal fees.
According to Gossip Cop, the owner of Oops, Frederic Truskolaski, acknowledged that the magazine knew its "scoop" was untrue. He said his staff read some stories "saying they were together," but noted "we didn't know" if Rihanna was pregnant.
At the same time Truskolaski was shocked by DiCaprio's move. "Why is he doing this?", he asked.
