Rihanna’s Goes Topless For GQ, Plus 5 Interesting Facts…
“When a good girl’s gone bad, she’s gone forever” – Jay-z
Rihanna poses topless in a new cover for GQ Magazine’s January Issue. Lately, with all the press she’s been receiving (good and bad), I skim the articles to see if there is anything “new” to be learned and I will tell you, it’s worth the read. Here are five interesting things I learned from reading the interview:
She didn’t graduated from high school
No. I wanted to. I just got really busy.
L.A. Reid thought her cover shoot was too risque
At one point L.A. Reid came into the shoot, and he was like, “Rihanna, put some f*cking clothes on!”
That scar on her lip is not from herpes
It’s a f*cking scar. On my lip. That’s there every day of my life. At first I was like, Are you serious? First I thought people were gonna definitely know that that’s not…But when I read it, and I see that people just buy into that…Like, the minute they see it, it forms something in their head.
There’s is alot more she probably wants to say about the assault incident but can’t…
I never blamed myself, but I wondered what, what did I do to provoke it?…
….I didn’t call 911. No. I know everybody thinks I did, but it was someone else…It was…
GQ Editor’s note: Rihanna looks at the Hovering Manager and then mutters something about having just spoken to Diane Sawyer about all this. But here’s the weird thing: You get the feeling that Rihanna still has a lot to say. Her eyes are wet when anything Chris Brown-related comes up. She has a tendency to stare off into the distance when she talks about It—but then she meets the glare of the manager. Maybe she does want to go there—and can’t. Or perhaps it is dawning on Rihanna that to really step out and be the kind of advocate she says she wants to be is another burden altogether.
She feels misunderstood
They just don’t understand me. I just think people straight up don’t know who I am; they just know what I look like, they know the idea of me. But—they’ll learn more this time, because now I let my guard down, and I’m more comfortable just being myself. That’s exactly what I want to be. And even on the album, you definitely get a gist of my personality.

New 9ff GT9-R could be the World’s Fastest Car
THIS SHIT IS CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!! 254 MPH WHOAAAAAAAAAAA
If you’re looking for the world’s fastest car, this very well could be it. It’s called the GT9-R, and it’s the latest product from Porsche tuners extraordinaire 9ff. Although based loosely on a Porsche 911, little of the end product is shared with the existing sportscar. Instead the GT9-R packs as much as 1120 horsepower in a lightweight custom body for a top speed in excess of 414 km/h (257 mph), making it arguably the fastest car in the world – faster even than the Bugatti Veyron.
