Rihanna takes it all off for GQ’s “Men of the Year” issue. After revealing the naked cover yesterday, the magazine rolls out the rest of the drool-worthy images. The “Diamonds” singer wears only Stella McCartney panties and sneakers by Alejandro Ingelmo in the skin-baring shoot by Mario Sorrenti. GQ tags along with their “Obsession of the Year” and gets a first-hand account of her crazy life in the spotlight.
On the paparazzi following her every move: “You’re never used to it. It’s chaos.”
On how she sees herself: “Sometimes a person looks at me and sees dollars. They see numbers and they see a product. I look at me and see art. If I didn’t like what I was doing, then I would say I was committing slavery.”
On getting a tattoo on her face: “The tattoo artist said nope, I’m not gonna do it because if you’re looking at your face, it’s right there staring at you.”
On her role in a relationship: “I like to feel like a woman. I have to be in control in every other aspect of my life, so I feel like in a relationship, like I wanted to be able to take a step back and have somebody else take the lead.”
On her music: “I want to make music that’s hopeful, uplifting. Nothing corny or supersentimental. I just want it to have the feeling that brings you out of whatever you’re going through. I want it to spark that fire. I want it to be real, authentic, and raw.”
On rumors that Chris Brown and Drake were fighting over her: “There’s no proof of that being for my love. That’s my answer to that question.”
