The Capital Weekender with Kem Cetinay 7pm - 10pm
The 'S&M' singer says her raunchy antics are all just an act.
Rihanna, who was recently asked to cover up by a farmer in Northern Ireland during her video shoot for 'We Found Love', compared her racy antics on and off stage to an acting role.
"That's not me, that's a part I play, you know like it's a piece of art, with all these toys and textures to play with," she told Vogue magazine.
"See people - especially white people - want me to be a role model just because of the life I lead. The things I say in my songs, they expect it of me and [being a role model] became more of my job than I wanted it to be. But no, I just want to make music. That's it."
RiRi features on the cover of the November issue of Vogue, her second cover shoot this year.
The singer is due to kick off her 'Loud' UK tour with Calvin Harris at London's O2 Arena on Wednesday, 5th October.
