Posted August 11, 200618 yr Modest Rihanna refuses to wear skimpy clothes for videos and photoshoots because she's determined to impress with her music alone - just like her idol Alicia Keys. The Barbados-born R&B star recently turned down a cover shoot for German magazine when she learned editors wanted her to go topless for the session. She says, "I don't like to wear things (that are) too skimpy... If I do shorts on the bottom, it's gotta be something very conservative at the top. If it's skimpy at the top, it's gotta be long jeans or something. I like to balance it out. I won't do short shorts and short top. That's what I admire so much about Alicia Keys. She became so successful off of just her music. She was really conservative about her style at first." Rihanna can always expect a backlash in her native Barbados if she wears anything too revealing - as she recently discovered. She explains, "I went to the beach and I had on a one-piece swimsuit with jeans, but the swimsuit, obviously, it had the back out and stuff, the sides out. They took the picture and they made it look like it was a top that was really revealing... There were call-in (radio) programs about it... It was a big deal for, like, three weeks straight - talking about I'm not setting a good example."
August 12, 200618 yr I have to say its big of rihanna ot say that and wen artists do things like that it just makes me give them more respect beacuse their musicians not porn stars!
August 12, 200618 yr I agree, but unfortunatly, many of todays female singers dress down don't you think :(?
August 12, 200618 yr Yeah most do , but Delta doesn't , hahaha!!! And Rihanna shows off just enough, especially in the SOS vid when she's wearing the green thing!
August 12, 200618 yr yeah, she gets forced to wear skimpy clothes she said once. I guess thats what you have to do sometimes to get attention for your great music! but good on her for refusing!
August 12, 200618 yr Yep I agree, females are made to wear skimpy clothes to sell records, what the world has come too -_-! It's about music not the look! lol

Other examples though are very fair and who cares? They all do it nowadays LOL but I guess she is a hypocrit. But she's no more of a hypocrit than Paul McCartenay (sp? :() :P
January 19, 201015 yr I can't imagine what Paul McCartney's pics look like :(LOL! I didn't mean that :P I meant he was a hypocrit in dissing XFactor and saying something like he'll never be seen on there or something and then BAM he was on the final this year! LOL
