Rihanna graces two special covers for "Elle U.K." April 2013 and the singer opened up about her life, relationship with Chris Brown and her plans of having a kid in an interview with the magazine.
Rihanna has decided to let the past go and move on with her life and stay focused as she has made plans for her future which includes a vacation from touring and having a kid. The Barbadian singer was interviewed for Elle magazine during her infamous 777 tour.
Rihanna looks stunning as ever on the cover of Elle U.K. clad in different designer costumes by fashion houses Maison Martin Margiela, Louis Vuitton and Givenchy.
On reuniting with Chris Brown:
"I have my own reasons, very very private reasons. Very personal. Bottom line is - I know him . . . You don't have that feeling [of everlasting love] with everybody so when you have it you don't want to let go of it. I would definitely say that he [Chris Brown] is the one I have that kind of relationship with."
On letting go of the past and starting fresh with Brown:
"Now that we're adults we can do this right. We got a fresh start and I'm thankful for that. Right now that's just what we want, a great friendship that's unbreakable."
On her plans of having a child:
"I will probably have a kid. And I'm praying I can go on vacation for a good month. And I'll have set some things up so I don't have to tour for the rest of my life, even though I love touring. I want health and happiness in five years. I want to be healthy and happy."
On her inspiration to get a gun tattoo symbolizing strength:
"Everybody wanted to know what was happening in my life. Is she a drug addict? No. Is she an alcoholic? No. Is she a victim? No. That's when I got the gun [tattoo]. It was a symbol of strength. I'll never be a victim."
On her mother:
"I'm not afraid of any person in this world but my mother. I'm terrified of her! She called me two days ago and reeled me in about two naked pictures Melissa [her best friend] put up on Instagram - a sneak-peek from a photo book she's making about me. My mom, she went crazy on me. I was like embarrassed. I felt like I got my ass whupped in front of my class in school! This was like a private moment and you're just parading this around. She humbled the f*** out of me."
ELLE's April 2013 issue will hit the newsstands on March 6.
