RIHANNA ON COVER OF ALLURE
Rihanna is on the January cover of "Allure" magazine where she discusses her influential hairstyle, not dating Josh Hartnett, and thoughts on Beyonce Knowles.
On rumours that she hooked up with Josh Hartnett: “This is what really happened. He and my management, they have each other’s contact information. I went to (the New York club) Pink Elephant, and he came by. All of a sudden, the next day, I’m seeing that we were kissing and hugging up each other. You can’t even go out with a friend who’s a celebrity and have a good time without people making (bleep) up. Well, at least he’s good-looking, right?”
On Beyonce: “She’s Beyonce, and I’m (his) new protegee. When we see each other we say hi. We’re not enemies, but we’re not ‘friends’ friends.”
On her edgy new ‘do: “The label didn’t want me to do this look. But cutting my hair, it made me stand out as an artist. I don’t care who likes it — this is me.”
On being bullied at school for being too ‘white’: “I was a little confused as a kid because I grew up with my mum, and my mum is black. So I was cultured in a very ‘black’ way. But when I go to school, I’m getting called ‘white’. They would look at me and would curse me out. I didn’t understand. I just knew I saw people of all different shades and I was light. Now I’m in a much bigger world.”

Damn, what's with darker skinned black kids wanting to beat up the lighter skinned kids? That happened to me being mixed. Parents, teach your kids that we are all in this together no matter what are shades of black is. I feel U Rihanna!
