Over the holidays, and even during filming, I realized that I actually like my body, even if it's not perfect according to the book. I just feel sexy.

If someone is right for you, you'll know it. (Rihanna)

I love reading people. I really enjoy watching, observing, and being able to figure out a person, the reason they wore that dress, the reason they smell the way they do. (Rihanna)
I always keep my guard up with guys and I guess that can get in the way sometimes. I can make them go through hell. (Rihanna)
I hate going to the gym and doing it the old-fashioned way. I hate anything that's too straightforward, too routine, too familiar. I get bored really, really quickly. (Rihanna)
