Rihanna's love life garnered plenty of attention last year when she became entangled in a domestic violence incident with then-beau Chris Brown. It's because of that ordeal that some of her fans were surprised when she debuted her newest single, "Love the Way You Lie", with rapper Eminem.
But Rihanna seems confident and self-assured when she explains why she decided to lend her voice to the track.

"The way he [Eminem] did it was clever. He pretty much broke down the cycle of domestic violence and that's something that a lot of people don't have a lot of insight on so this is really a powerful song and it touches a lot of people."
But churning out hits and touring with Eminem is not all the 22-year-old knows how to do. She's also taken on the task of planning Katy Perry's bachelorette party.

When asked how the event would turn out Rihanna insisted that it would be a rowdy time.
"Knowing Katy Perry, I can have balloons and Disney characters there and she'll still make it wild! That's just how she is."
So, will the party planner dish on what she has in store?
"Of course not, I'm not even telling her...I can't tell you!"
