Rihanna is the current covergirl for NME magazine and she’s got a lot to say. Check out a few key points below.
On whether she’ll ever join Taylor Swift on stage
I don’t think I would. I just don’t think it makes sense. I don’t think our brands are the same; I don’t think they match. I don’t think our audiences are the same. In my mind she’s a role model, I’m not.
The BBHM video vs. Feminists
Well I mean now we’re reaching. I didn’t think about anything that had to do with that.Wow. The bitch was the man. So I’m confused. Those are the people that didn’t get it. I’m not worried about those people. This was not a woman empowerment video. I was making a piece of art.
On Paparazzi
It’s annoying, but what’s the worse that could happen? They’re just taking pictures. A picture of every move. Every good move, every bad move, every wrong move, it’s all there. There’s no getting away from that now unless I start to completely suck at my job. Unless I completely fall off. So I guess there’s a silver lining to all this.
On Moving Out Of LA
I’d like to live in London next year, you know. I want to try it. While I’m childless, and I can run around. I wanna do it.
Where’s R8?
It’s not done! To me it’s never done until it’s done. Until the final moment. I have so many songs I love – and they’re so different – that’s it’s hard to actually put them all on the same album. No matter what I post online, within three comments there’s somebody saying, ‘Where is R8?‘ I could post anything. Nothing else matters. They don’t care about anything but that. But it makes me excited, because I can’t wait to give them something great.
Working with Kanye’s busy schedule
We just have to wait to get back in the studio together. His schedule and mine are totally opposite right now, but I think this month we’ll be back in the studio.
On Being Herself
I just have a way of breaking the rules even when I don’t intend to. You have to let people be who they are – you have to believe that that’s going to be the best version of them.
