Sexy Rihanna Does Complex: Pictures & Interview
Good Girls Are Boring
Relatively speaking, at least. In this age of blog-a-go-go voyeurism, we tend to forgo staid-and-playful for the more controversial sedated-and-unstable. But if a good girl goes hot, then all bets are off. Rihanna’s latest album, her third in two years, is titled Good Girl Gone Bad - and judging from her skintight clothes and angular haircut, the corruption is well underway.
Not that the physical frame could ever be accused of being boring; in that regard, the Barbados native (born Robyn Rihanna Fenty) is downright fascinating. So much so, in fact, that you’d (hypothetically) let it slide if you found her as (hypothetically) manufactured and vapid as you might have (hypothetically) expected to. Well, pump your brakes, you cynical bastards. For a multiplatinum recording artist with an aggressive tour schedule, an entourage, and a glut of major endorsements, Rihanna’s as low-maintenance as they come. Jay-Z’s protégée laughs easily, riffs deadpan in her island lilt, and even if she is as steadfastly nice as Winnie Cooper, the fact that she likes guns and loves comic book movies makes her win. So forget the fallen starlets and rehab babies - we’re wishing on a good girl.
So, I see you’re sporting a different look. You’re like an assassin or something. [Laughing.] Thanks. I wanted something new.
Well, you were on All My Children last year—if you get more into acting, you could always play a mercenary.
I’ve read a few scripts. I haven’t gone for anything yet, but I’d really want to do an action movie. Like an Aeon Flux or Matrix or Underworld. I love those movies.
Who would you want to work with in Hollywood?
What’s that guy’s name who was in that movie with Jessica Alba? Paul…umm…
Wait, who?
Fast and the Furious…Paul something…
Paul Walker? You could work with anyone in Hollywood and you choose Paul Walker?!
[Laughing.] I think he’s really hot.
Did you see 300?
[Deadly serious.] 300 is one of the best movies I have ever seen. The choreography, the fighting, the costumes, the production—phenomenal. I make everybody watch it.
So you didn’t think it was too violent.
Oh, not at all. That was the good part. I’m the oldest child with two brothers. We talk all the time now, but we used to fight—and when I say “fight,” I don’t mean arguments, I mean physically fight.
Who won?
I hit the older one in his face with a glass bottle.
Rihanna’s Very Sexy “Umbrella” Performance at the 2007 MTV Movie Awards
In the video for her hit “Umbrella,” Rihanna shows off her new haircut – and her newly buff bod. But she says she never tried to shed pounds.
“It wasn’t so much losing weight as being fit and toned and healthy. I just didn’t feel great,” the singer, 19, told PEOPLE while rehearsing for her Sunday night performance at the MTV Movie Awards in Los Angeles.
“Now I’m working out and trying to eat healthy. That’s making me lose weight without even thinking about it. I’m not intentionally trying to get skinny.”
Her fitness regimen includes lots of cardio and weight training two or three times a week. “I work with a trainer,” she said. “We work on the arms. I don’t want manly, muscular arms. We work out my butt because I love my butt. [But] my legs are my main focus. I’m obsessed.”
She’s also watching her diet, eating lots of carrots, lettuce, cucumbers and egg whites and snacking on fruit all day, and drinking plenty of water. “I like carbs,” she said, “but at the end of the day, carbs are the enemy.”
And though she said she likes to flaunt her back and hide her stomach, she hardly looked self-conscious in a Dolce & Gabbana S&M-style corset dress during her performance with Jay-Z at the MTV awards.
Her duet with the rapper was a hit, but there was one other person in the audience whom Rihanna – who says she’s planning to take acting lessons – is dying to work with: Sacha Baron Cohen. “He is so funny!” she said. “I could watch Borat every day and not get tired of it.”
