After their explosive breakup, Rihanna was nowhere to be found at Drake's all out thirtieth birthday party. Even though a couple of sources say they are still speaking to each other, it seems that Riri has a very good reason for not wanting to be at her ex's party. Here's why.

Drake, who recently turned 30 and Rihanna, 28 are done. And although the used-to-be power couple is still on talking terms, she still has some pent up anger, enough to be a no-show on his Dirty Thirty shindig!

"It would be a lie if Rihanna didn't want to be at Drake's party last night," a source tells HollywoodLife exclusively. "She did. She absolutely wanted to be with him and celebrate but her pride wouldn't let her." Aw, we've all been there.

"She's still mad at him for many reasons, mainly because he's such jerk who won't commit and wants everything his way," the source continues. "But they are talking. She hit him up and they're planning to celebrate," the insider reveals, "But she feels salty about how shit went down in their relationship." We don't blame her!

Other media outlets reported that Riri wasn't the only gal pal of Drake who missed the big day. Apparently, Nicki Minaj declined the "One Dance" singer's invite, although unlike Rihanna, she was with a man at home who was not too happy to hear that his girlfriend was part of the party's guest list.

That's right, Meek Mill, Nicki Minaj's boyfriend, totally lost it when he heard that Drake invited Nicki. So, instead of going, she stayed home to avoid further insult to the injury.

Meanwhile, for those of you, who didn't score an invite to one of the fall's hottest parties, don't worry, there were only around 170 people in attendance and E! News have all the details about what went down inside.

The report said that Taylor Swift showed up in a trench coat from Meshki with some friends before singing happy birthday to Drake. Friendly exes John Mayer and Katy Perry "spoke throughout the night" while other guests including Jamie Foxx, Shay Mitchell, and French Montana sipped on Drake's whiskey.

"It was a very intimate party with just friends and family. It started around 9 p.m. and went until after 3 a.m.," a source shared with E! News. "When he came in he had a big smile and was really happy. He said hi to everyone and gave everyone hugs."
