Rihanna says her love life is "non-existent" which is not "really that cool".

The Barbadian beauty was recently linked to Dudley O'Shaughnessy after he appeared in her We Found Love promo.

However, Rihanna taped an appearance for Monday's The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and cleared up speculation about her love life.

"I'm not dating anyone right now. I'm not dating at all," she confirmed. "I'm not necessarily happy being single. It's not really that cool.

"I do put a lot into my job - most of my time if not all of it. It definitely affects my personal life. My personal life is pretty much non-existent, which is not good, not for the long run. Not for me, not for 'Her'," she said, pointing between her legs.

"It's not fun."

Rihanna described her perfect man. The songstress would love a beau who takes on the traditional masculine role.

"I like men that are more aggressive, but mysterious, but I like a man to be very sure," she explained.

"I like them to be sure of themselves and know that you're the man. I'm the lady and the only way for us to make this work is for us to play our roles. You know, I can't really be the man for you. I don't want to have to be. I'm the man at work all the time."

Rihanna admitted that her lack of romance encourages her to use the internet for stimulation. The stunning star relies on her Twitter fans to keep her entertained.

"That's why I stay on Twitter a lot. So I can conversate with my fans - because I don't get any booty calls," she added.
