Rihanna is currently on the November 11th cover issue of Britain's "You" magazine. For the interview, the green-eyed singer opens up about her childhood, career and being a world-class citizen.

Rihanna on her "good-girl-gone-bad" image:

“I felt I was embarking on a whole new image, a whole new journey. I wanted to differentiate myself from the past. I have come into my own and I know what I’m doing now. I’ve called the new album Good Girl Gone Bad because I was determined to do it my way, I was sick of listening to what everyone else wanted. This is the way I like to look and sound, so I became very rebellious – that’s the attitude of the entire project.”

Rihanna on how frustrating it is live alone and being a world-class citizen:

"When I'm not working, I love just lying on my patio, listening to the breeze. It reminds me of the Caribbean. I'm travelling so much, but there's nowhere like home. Sometimes I get so lonely, and it's frustrating. Most of the time I'm in a different time zone to everyone else when I call them up – but then I'm a citizen of the world now.
