Rihanna Says “Getting Dressed I Want To Make People Go ‘What The Hell Is She Wearing?’”

Here are more quotes from Glamour:

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.”

Wow, she likes a dominant male. So maybe she’s the one wearing the dog collar and Drizzy is holding the leash?

Nice of her to include Beyonce in that list of female musicians running things (she forgot Nicki Minaj though). BeyBey could learn a few things from Rih about giving a good interview. That perfection business can get really boring.
