Rihanna: W Magazine February 2010
Rihanna looks stunning on the cover of W magazine in a white Gucci dress. Here’s what the 21-year-old had to say:
On her preternatural maturity:
“I’ve been paying my own bills since I was 17, living in a foreign country. And I’ve always been a little older than my real age. People always said that to me, and I always felt that in my head.”
On not talking to anyone after she was assaulted by then-boyfriend Chris Brown:
“Not talking was a big thing for me. I’m glad I didn’t talk to people, because I was able to deal with things in my own way, without saying the wrong things or giving people the wrong impression.”
On her new record:
“This was a different type of record for me. It was really personal; it was from me in the most authentic way. It’s like a movie, in that when I was making this album, every day I was in a different mood. Sometimes I was pissed off, sometimes I was miserable, and every song brings out a different story. It’s still hard to listen to certain songs. Certain ones I couldn’t even record—I’d keep pushing them back [on the schedule]. When the label finally said we had 12 hours to turn in the album, I was like, Okay, I have to do it. I just drank some red wine, dimmed the lights, got in the booth and sang it.”
On her look:
“My stylist Mariel Haenn and I always try to do something sexy but never too girly—we always try to put a little toughness in there.”

If anyone helped her after the Chris Brown incident:
Nobody. Really just music. And working. ‘Cause I didn’t really want to be around anybody, for them to stare at me and stuff, and feel sorry for me. So I just—I stayed in the house a lot. Then I started to get cabin fever. I was like, I’m going crazy in here.
On whether she and Chris will ever be friends?
Mmm. Maybe in like ten years, you know? But it’s not something that I’m depending on. I’m not depending on his friendship.
If she blamed herself after the incident:
Initially? I mean…actually, no, I never blamed myself, but I wondered what, what did I do to provoke it?…

Rihanna: He Had No Soul in His Eyes
During a segment on Good Morning America, Rihanna opened up to Diane Sawyer and talked about the abuse she endured from ex-boyfriend Chris Brown.
On what happened the night he attacked her:
“I caught him in a lie, and he wouldn’t tell the truth. And I wouldn’t drop it. I couldn’t take that he kept lying to me, and he couldn’t take that I wouldn’t drop it. It escalated into him being violent towards me and it was ugly.”
On what she was thinking during that time:
He had no soul in his eyes. Just blank. He was clearly blacked-out. There was no person when I looked at him. I was battered. I was bleeding. I was swollen in my face. There was no way of me getting home. My next option was to get out the car and start walking in a gown and a bloody face. So I really don’t know what was my plan. I didn’t have a plan.”
On how she feels about Chris now:
“I don’t hate him at all. I actually love and care about him and I’m concerned about him doing well. I want him to do well, have a great career, have a great life and grow up, and just take this as something that you had to go through to grow up and learn.”
