On Monday, we covered Rihanna’s “natural” hair on the cover of Glamour’s November issue. Now the editorial has been released, and Rihanna’s bod is banging. Of course I am always skeptical when it comes to any hairdo on Rihanna because she’s so fond of weaves. At least these short curls look more natural than her usual down-to-the-immaculate-booty weaves. Seriously, I do envy Rihanna’s booty. If I could have any booty shape at all in the world, it would be RiRi’s.
The rest of Rihanna’s Glamour shoot pairs itself with some interview excerpts. She talks about getting her fearlessness back, which is probably about letting Chris Brown go once and (hopefully) for all. Rihanna also talks about how she loves Nicole Richie’s style, and I do agree. Then she goes off on a tangent about how Princess Diana’s style is so “gangsta.” I think she means this as a general compliment. Rihanna’s vocabulary is pretty limited and somewhat questionable. Everyone’s always a “bad bitch,” you know?
Her style icon: “You know who is the best who ever did it? Princess Diana. She was like – she killed it. Every look was right. She was gangsta with her clothes. She had these crazy hats. She got oversize jackets. I loved everything she wore.”
The runner up, Nicole Richie: “Oh my God, are you kidding me? Nicole Richie. She p-sses me off. She’s so good.”
On regaining her fearlessness: “I had to regain my fearlessness because it did go away for a little bit. My mother said something to me a few years ago: ‘I’ve seen something in your eyes I’ve never seen before: fear.’ She was like, ‘No, this is not you.’ I just got back to being OK with myself.”
She wants a family … someday: “One day I will have kids. I look forward to the day when I’m gonna be a mom. But I’m nowhere close. I don’t even have a potential baby daddy!”

Sure, Princess Di was a “gangsta” of fashion. I’m not even going to argue with that assertion because Rihanna will never understand the importance of poise and understated grace. RiRi has reined in her flashy ways of dressing lately, but I feel like it’s an all an act. Like she’s pretending to be “square.” Poor Diana had no idea her name would be evoked by a completely baked pop star one day.

She’s so beautiful, yet every time she opens her mouth, I cringe. She’s powerful, hip, strong – I just want her to be a tiny bit better than she is as a person.
That is exactly how I feel. Well said!
Agree..well said.
Totally agree.
Thank you. I’m thinking of naming it the Idris Elba Syndrome.
Perfect! We can look at the pictures only if wearing earplugs.
Agreed. I don’t think she’s a bad person, but she can definitely improve.
“baby daddy” ? Uh oh not exactly father of the year award.
She has got the prettiest eyes, looks great in the photos. I really like the short hair on her.
She is so gorgeous. Wow.
She really has one of the prettiest faces and best bodies of anyone I can think of.
I have to agree… always stunning.
She´s Beautiful! There is no other way to put it. I hope she will survive her celebrity.
Never thought I’d read the words Princess Diana and “gansta” in a sentence together. I’m gettin old
Her cover is Stunning
She’s gorgeous, no doubt about that but every time she opens her mouth I keep hearing “A mind is a terrible thing to waste” in a James Earl Jones voice in my head…sigh.
I was looking at her instagram yesterday… How exhausted the people around her must be! She takes so many selfless, and obviously makes her assistants take pics of her from every angle, all day long. Her instagram is a self made tribute to herself. It’s like, God forbid the general public miss seeing her beauty from every angle in every outfit every. minute. of. the. day. Exhausting!
Please make it stop.
well, at least they didn’t whittle her nose away to nothing in the rest of the pics…just the cover shot.
My sentiments exactly, Doofus. That is not her nose ! Do they have to photoshop the hell out of everyone…always?
She’s an idiot; I lived through that era and Princess Diana was anything but “gangsta”; this overrated pop tart’s imagination is so meager, and she’s a multi-millionaire, the farthest thing from “gangsta.”
I agree. Stop trying to reduce Diana DOWN to your thuggish level. Since when did being a gangster turn into a good thing? Look what this culture is doing. Just go to jail & get it over with. UGH!!
She’s not using “gangsta” in the literal sense.
It’s just slang. Trashy, stupid slang, but slang. Don’t take it so seriously.
I agree. You are being too literal. What Riri means is that Princess Diana was fashion forward, took a lot of risks with clothes, and WORE THEM. She was as much a compliment to her clothes as the clothes complemented her. Princess Diana was a clothes horse. She “rocked” them. There’s a little slang for you.
Instead of taking insult (on Diana’s behalf?) and/or being insulting to Rhianna, perhaps take a moment to think broader and be a bit more open-minded. After all, Riri said what she wanted to say in perhaps the only way she knew how in that moment and in her attempt to “comtemporize” Princess
Diana.
Peace.
She’s a pretty girl, but so damn rude to everyone around her. I don’t know how her team of people put up with her bad attitude and narcissism 24 hours a day. I bet she humiliates and insults everyone on the regular to deal with her self-esteem issues and her bitterness over her breakup with Chris Brown and the side piece he can’t seem to get over.
Really? I never heard anything about her being rude or mean. I actually have a theory that most of her ‘bad girl’ schtick is just an act.
On the gansta comment? Rhirhi is playing the 90s trend, and I believe they’ve up to fall of 1995 by tbe look of what’s out there. Rhianna speaks and dresses 90s all the time so its no big.
Thanks! I agree on both points. I have been trying to “pinpoint” just where “they” are and have also been trying to pinpoint what’s next.
Yes because Diana was very into twerking and wearing jean g-strings while sitting in a throne stroking herself. 🙁
Rihanna…just shut up.
Who knows what she did when not in the public eye.
I can’t believe Diana is gone and this little no-talent idiot walks the earth.
I’m curious, what great talent did Diana have that you can speak of? Apart from being the pampered princess… And please dont tell me about working with the poor and under privileged because there is so much people out there doing that and don’t get praised for it
