As many heard or know , Rihanna has a new man and he’s hawt…its Matt Kemp who plays for the Los Angeles Dodgers. Rihanna and Matt decided to hit Cabo for a little mini getaway but those damn paparazzi’s couldn’t help but follow the new couple all around Mexico and we just cant help but to talk about it. Matt Kemp is definitely putting a smile on her face and rubbing on the booty as he does it! People magazine wrote 5 things we should know about “Hottie with a body” Matt Kemp, check it out inside!
1. His Bat’s Silver, His Glove’s Gold, His Wallet’s Fat
The Los Angeles Dodgers paid Kemp $5 million last year in what was the starting outfielder’s breakthrough season. He had 26 home runs and 101 RBIs in 2009, winning the Silver Slugger award for his stellar hitting and the Golden Glove for his fielding prowess.
2. He’s Nicknamed “The Bison”
During his second major league game in 2006 against the Atlanta Braves, Kemp stole second base, prompting TV announcer Don Sutton to say Kemp looked like “a big buffalo running around the bases” – and a nickname was born.
3. He’s a Country Boy at Heart
Behind Kemp’s impressive 6-foot-2, 230-pound frame lies a guy with down-home sensibilities. He hails not from L.A. but from Midwest City, Okla., population 54,000, which means the entire town could fit in Dodger Stadium (capacity 56,000) with room to spare.
4. Pearly Whites Impress Him
What has Kemp been searching for in a love interest? “Independent, pretty, good teeth,” he told Young Hollywood. “I like good teeth.” Seems like he’s found all three qualities in Rihanna: a knockout star with a successful music career – and a famous smile!
5. He Has a “Mini-Me”
Number 27 has his own Bobblehead doll that stars in the online video The Adventures of Lil’ Matt with a cameo by Snoop Dogg, who holds the Kemp doll in the palm of his hand and promises to write the Dodgers a new theme song if they win the championship.
