Is Rihanna hinting at a possible rekindled romance with former flame Chris Brown?

The singer once again tweeted cryptic messages this week, questioning the possible backlash once a secret affair goes public.

"When they see me with you, wonder what the crowd would say? When they find us together, what will all the people say?" The lyrics are from Beres Hammond's song "They Gonna Talk."

Could she be preparing fans for a major relationship announcement that involves her ex? Brown pleaded guilty in 2009 of assaulting his then-girlfriend.

Rihanna also gushed about Brown in a recent interview with Ryan Seacrest, calling him "the hottest R&B artist out right now. However, she also went on to say their recent musical collaborations were professional. "It's music, and it's innocent."
