Shia LaBeouf has finally owned up to briefly dating pop star Rihanna — two years after rumors of a romantic relationship between the two first surfaced.

The Transformers star admits he had one date with the “Umbrella” hitmaker in 2007, but claims the two failed to hit it off as a couple.

A mutual stylist introduced the young stars when Shia was filming Indiana Jones & the Kingdom of The Crystal Skull in Hawaii, he says in the June issue of Playboy.

“(I was) filming a sword fight when I got the message. I said to myself, ‘Can this be my life?’” Shia later texted Rihanna and they set up a dinner date, but alas, it was not to be.

“It never got beyond one date. The spark wasn’t there. We weren’t passionate about each other in that way, so we remain friends.”
