Rihanna's 'see you next Tuesday' slip of the tongue

Last week she was being told to cover up by a farmer, this week she's been told to watch her mouth, Rihanna has official become the good girl gone bad.

The We Found Love singer, who is the cover girl of the November issue of Vogue UK, has told the fashion bible of her fondness for using the 'c' word and why she just wants to be left alone to make music.

"That 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," the Barbados-born pop star said.
Her mentor, Jay-Z, wasn't the one who pulled her up on her foul mouth but a member of her entourage.

"When I first came here, I was saying it like it was nothing, like, 'Hey, c...,' until my makeup artist finally had to tell me to stop. I just never know."

The 23-year-old graced the cover of the magazine wearing a short blonde wig and adorned in never seen before Armani Prive couture.

She also spoke about how different the real "Ri Ri" is from her onstage persona who sings and thrusts about on stage in barely-there costumes to her chart topping hits including S&M.

"That's not me. That's a part I play. You know, like it's a piece of art, with all these toys and textures to play with," she added.

"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."

The in-depth interview, her first in a number of years, also touched on her turbulent past and the highly publicised relationship with R&B singer Chris Brown.

"I saw too much. I was too mature for my age," she said of her upbringing in a broken home, shattered further by the effects of domestic violence.

"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."

Rihanna gets waxed at Madame Tussauds

Rihanna has been immortalised in wax.

The Loud singer was honoured with her own waxwork at London's Madame Tussauds museum where she took centre stage at the attraction's interactive Music Zone alongside Britney Spears, Kylie Minogue, Lady Gaga and the late Amy Winehouse.

The model of Rihanna - who is famed for her sexy outfits - is wearing the raunchy long black dress she donned to perform her duet with Matt Cardle on the UK final of The X Factor last year, complete with a bright cherry red hair-do.
Liz Edwards, PR Manager at the attraction, said: "We are thrilled to welcome Rihanna to Madame Tussauds London. Her inclusion couldn't be more timely as her Loud tour arrives in the capital this week. We are sure she will hit the right note with our guests as demand for her figure has been huge since her appearance on The X Factor 2010.

"Rihanna is one of the biggest music stars of the moment and is a perfect addition to the 'diva dream team' of female artists we have here at the attraction."

The figure took four months to complete at a cost of £150,000 (NZ$307,000).

Other stars to have waxworks at Madame Tussauds include Justin Bieber, David Beckham and Brad Pitt.

Rihanna Says C Word Is Offensive To Everyone Except Bajans

Rihanna reveals just what she thinks about her cunt necklace. (see below). Rihanna also has a real issue with being a role model, as a matter fact she loathes the responsibility. The Rude Boy singer saw her sexy wax figure on display in the UK this week alongside Amy Winehouse and Lady Gaga. Rihanna’s wax figure flaunts her envious shape while showing off just enough skin to tell you she’s no saint of a rock star.

Rihanna is also on the November cover of British Vogue and finally speaks on that darn cunt word necklace she insist on wearing. We’ve stated before we think it’s part of her image and works quite well.
The S&M singer did admit that she’s playing a part and her antics can be summed up as such. But the c-word necklace may be less of a marketing ploy and more of Rihanna’s familiarity with the word.

She tells UK Vogue,

“That 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,” Rihanna explains. “When I first came here, I was saying it like it was nothing, like, ‘Hey, c–t,’ until my makeup artist finally had to tell me to stop. I just never know.”

It’s hard to believe as the Ambassador for Barbados tourism that the island wants to be associated with wholly believing that cunt is an interchangeable word for friend/girl. But Rihanna is making one point clear, she knows how everyone interprets the word and yet she continues to wear it – so there – take it or leave. Is it also unfair for parents to assign role model titles to pop stars???

Rihanna Says She's Pregnant By...

Rihanna tweeted that she's pregnant! The "We Found Love" singer was spotted leaving the Clarence Hotel after her concert in Belfast, Ireland over the weekend.

Earlier in the day a fan tweeted Rihanna saying, "Wanted to buy Rihanna CDs had to stop when someone told me that she is the princess of illuminati and she sold her soul for fame."

This is pretty hard for a sane person to believe, so since the fan was willing to believe anything, Rihanna replied:
"When will u idiots ever learn? She didn't tell u I'm also pregnant with a polka dot zebra??? Its too easy..."

So there you have it, Rihanna is going to have a baby by a polka dot zebra! We believe her too, because she's the princess of the Illuminati! #Sarcasm#

'I'm Playing a Part' ‎

POP diva Rihanna has compared herself to a “piece of art”.

The What’s My Name? hitmaker told Britain’s Vogue magazine that, with her sexed-up image, she’s just playing a part.

“That’s not me,” she said.

“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.
“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…”

Meanwhile, it’s been claimed Rihanna “fancies the pants off” British boxer Dudley O’Shaughnessy.

The star — who previously dated singer Chris Brown and baseball star Matt Kemp — chose the hunk to take part in her new music video for single We Found Love and while shooting in Northern Ireland she has been particularly taken with him, even sitting on his lap during one break.

“Rihanna was making no secret that she fancied the pants off Dudley. They hit it off straight away. She had seen his modelling shots and other pictures when he was a boxer,” a source said.

“Rihanna took every opportunity to get close to him and at one point she was sitting in his lap during a break from filming. She’s very tactile anyway, but this was something else.”
