Rihanna on hating drama…and perfection…

“I hate drama. But at the same time, nothing bothers me more than when life’s perfect. And that’s the sick part. I just love a challenge, whether it’s a relationship, my career, clothing…”

Rihanna on her attention-getting sense of style…

“Getting dressed, I want to pick the most bizarre pair of shorts so I can figure out how to make it look right, or work an outfit that will make people go, “What the hell is she wearing?”

Rihanna on dealing with how messy life can get…

“I think honesty is the ultimate liberation in life. People want to shy away from the truth and keep sweeping it under the rug. But after a while, you pick up the rug and there’s just way too much dirt, so you might as well just be up front about it.”

Rihanna on being a role model for young girls…

“In the beginning of my career, it was really strict for me. I couldn’t wear pink or red lipstick; it was just bizarre. We had a young fan base, and they were trying to keep me fresh. But I just really wanted to be myself. I wanted to be sassy, the attitude, all these things that I am.”

Rihanna on being a role model for young girls…

“I want to set the right example and, at the same time, live my life….I feel like pop stars can’t be rock stars anymore because they have to be role models, and it takes the fun out of it for us, because we just want to have fun with art.”

Rihanna on liking dominant guys in the bedroom…

“I play a very dominant role in my life, in every aspect of it. And I like to feel like a lady still, at some point. I feel like that’s the time when a guy really gets to be a man, and I get to be a woman. And if I’m being a man in the bedroom too, there’s nothing really in it for me.”

Rihanna on her fellow female musicians…

“There’s a pack. It’s me, Gaga, Katy Perry, Beyoncé…who else? Ke$ha, for sure. Women are definitely dominating music right now, and that’s because we are competitive beings. I feel like music hasn’t been this exciting in a while.”

Rihanna on her friendship with Katy Perry…

“All my friends are guys, to be completely honest. But when I met her, it was such a breath of fresh air. I just couldn’t believe this chick had no edit button…. Katy and Lady Gaga came out of the gate exactly the way they think, the way they wanna dress, the way they wanna speak.”

I totally love how she took control of her career. She wants to be a rock star, she's defiant, she's intelligent…. it sets her apart, and it shows. She's incredibly easy to like.

        We must consider that this single is chosen by RADIO STATION ( Z 100) …Last two months they barely played man down and ckb….they still played S&M….they just wanted another rihanna radio smash and they sudenly started with cheers….The Biggest station already added it, so others will just follow that….Cheers is going to smash…It has great chances 4 TOP 10….and with good music video and PROMO maybe higher….we just have to request
        
        Cheers: Text "REQUEST Cheers" to 55100 for Z100 & text "Cheers" to 41027 for KIIS FM

I love this interview, and she told the truth, in the beginning of her career I wish her stupid label would have given rihanna the control, it was more of her being the new artist but they didn't see that she had a vision from the beginning? but I'm glad she took full control in 07 because I don't know how far rihanna would have come, her label probably regrets having control of her in the beginning now seeing how successful she is.
