Know those rumors about Katy Perry and Rihanna being frenemies now?

So not true. In fact, a concertgoer exclusively tells E! News that Katy was all about Rihanna's show Tuesday night in NYC.

Before the show, K.P. even tweeted, "Throw it [Emoji pointing up] throw it [Emoji pointing up] , that's how we [ball Emoji] #immacomintogetyouRiRi"

Also in attendance? Tyson Beckford with some ladies, and also some of Rihanna's fam!  "The concert was great!" Tyson told E! News. "I met Rihanna's grandfather, and he is the coolest man in the show besides myself."

Rihanna's family told another concertgoer they were staying with her in the city, then heading back to Barbados.

Sounds like a fun-filled night of family and friends for Miss Ri-Ri!
