The Grammy Award singer Rihanna, is blonde on the cover of November British Vogue in her Armani dress.
Here are some highlights from the interview:
On her sexed-up image:
" That’s not me. That’s a part I play. You know, like it’s a piece of art … I just want to make music. See, people especially white people – they want me to be a role model just because of the life I lead. The things I say in my songs, they expect it of me and being a role model became more of my job than I wanted it to be. But no, I just want to make music. That’s it. Look, God doesn’t give any more than you can handle. I had to get through a lot of ups and downs big downs and a lot of trial and error to get where I am now. "
On Her Favorite Designers:
" Stella McCartney is so much fun and so inspiring, I adore her. Oh my God, when I first woke up to Christopher Kane with that collection he did with gorillas? I was like, who on earth is making this perfect sh-t? He is the best! "
On Her Style:
" I don’t ever want to be a theme because then it belongs to someone, and that’s not right. I want to cultivate something that’s part of my personal swagger whatever my mojo tells me, that’s what I’m going to do. "
On Loving The “ C-Word ”:
" It’s funny. The word is so offensive to everyone in the world except for Bajans. You know African Americans use the n-word to their brothers? Well that’s the way we use the c-word. When I first came here, I was saying it like it was nothing, like, “Hey ****,” until my make-up artist finally had to tell me to stop. I just never knew. "
