Extra’s Renee Bargh headed to Hawaii to talk with singer Rihanna about her acting debut in the action-packed summer movie “Battleship” — and how the pop singer is playing by her own rules.

She released two remixes with her ex, Chris Brown, earlier this year that had everyone talking, but Rihanna explained:

“Doing what you want means moving forward with the way you feel and living your truth… sometimes there are a lot of people who won’t agree with you, but it has to be your truth.”

Rihanna also laughed about her mother’s sense of humor regarding her daughter’s rumored love life:

“I took a picture with someone at the TIME 100 gala and I showed her, and she said, ‘Oh I thought it was Ashton! I thought it was Mr. Kutcher!’ She’s funny. She’s crazy. I love my mom.”

As for her big debut in “Battleship,” Rihanna still thinks it’s “weird” being called an actress:

“That doesn’t even sound right. That’s so, so weird to hear actress next to my name.” Rihanna plays a Navy cadet who must battle an armada of unknown origin in order to discover and thwart their destructive goals. The songstress said: “I never thought that I would have had these experiences, you know, shooting the weapons and all that cool stuff, especially not in my first movie.” On training for the role, the “We Found Love” singer said she paid “close attention” to her diet, but now, “I’m not careful with what I eat, because I’m trying to gain weight… just a little bit.”

Rihanna has released a sexy new video, “Where Have You Been.” She explained:

“Nothing about this video is raunchy. It’s all thematic, very artistic. There’s more dancing than there been for a long time, so that should be exciting and new for my fans.”

Check out Rihanna’s kick-ass moves when “Battleship” docks in theatres May 18.

Reb’l Fleur, Rihanna’s first signature perfume, was launched yesterday (March 5) at Cave Shepherd in Bridgetown, Barbados.

Ri’s mother Monica Fenty unveiled the fragrance.

Representative for Reb’l Fleur, Tina Hamilton, said the perfume was already launched in three countries but Barbados’ launch was the biggest.

Via The Sun: Her dad’s treasured photo shows a pretty teenager dressed for a carnival in Barbados. Thirteen-year-old Robyn Fenty smiles warmly in an outfit emblazoned with musical notes and the number one.

Only now can we appreciate the significance.

For Robyn – known to millions by her middle name Rihanna – has blasted from humble beginnings on the Caribbean island to become the biggest female pop star in the world. Just four years before the cheery carnival snap was taken, Rihanna had walked in on her dad doing crack in their modest home in Bridgetown – and vowed her life would be different. That moment, and her father Ronald’s descent into hopeless addiction, helped spur the streetwise girl on to global success – and an estimated £143million fortune.

The Sun tracked down her 57-year-old dad to Rihanna’s old home town, where he sells clothes from the back of a car. And standing outside the tiny bungalow where Rihanna grew up, Ronald Fenty, who says he is now drug free, showed off his snaps and revealed her early talent.

He said: “The first time I heard her sing she was three years old, lying on her bed with a hairbrush for a microphone. Then, when she was seven, I heard her singing with our neighbour and I was amazed. She was doing the Aladdin song A Whole New World – it was so pretty I couldn’t believe it.” He added: “I made sure she went to school and did well. She liked to dance and had natural rhythm but she wasn’t doing all the school productions and stuff. So her success came a bit out of the blue.”
