Rihanna's taste never changes

March 11, 2011 - IT was a case of stick with what you know for Rihanna on Wednesday night when she visited her favourite Sydney restaurant Beppi's for the fourth time in a week.

After three visits last week and an attempted meal on Sunday night (alas, the East Sydney diner was closed), RiRi returned again this week after her taping of Chelsea Lately.

This time she dined on scampi, a plate of gnocchi and pasta casareccia.

"She has a healthy appetite for someone so slim," one diner said.

Rihanna 'nervous' before Eminem collab

Rihanna has said that she was 'nervous' before recording 'Love The Way You Lie' with Eminem. Speaking to Chelsea Handler she said: 'He called me and I was completley ecstatic that Eminem wanted to do a song with me.

'(But) I was really nervous. I was such a huge fan and then you see his eyes. There's so much going on- it blows your mind to see someone with so many thoughts and emotions.

'You just want to know what thoughts are going through his mind.'

Assault incident gave edge to my music

Singer Rihanna reveals that the infamous 2009 assault by her then boyfriend has made her strong and a better songwriter.

'It actually gave me a lot of liberation. What I mean is, I was able to tap into the personal part of my music. I started to tell stories through my music that were actually my stories,' femalefirst.co.uk. quoted her as saying.
The Umbrella hitmaker was beaten black and blue by then-boyfriend Chris Brown, who is still serving his punishment for the attack. The couple split immediately after the fight.

'(In) my album before that there was still a little bit of protection, there was still an innocence to me. And what that time in my life did was kind of wake people up - it's not all a bed of roses. My life is like yours,' she added.

'It made me look at the world in a much bigger way because my life was suddenly super duper magnified. All eyes were on me. I needed that in my life to know how to say, 'F**k off!' To know how to keep my head high even in the worst of situations. I keep using the word unapologetic, but there's a freedom that has come with all of that. Where you feel like you don't have to make an excuse for being yourself,' she added.
