Rap-Up.com || Rihanna Speaks on Britney Spears ‘S&M’ Remix, ‘X Factor’ Rumors

Rihanna called into Ryan Seacrest’s 102.7 KIIS FM show this morning, sharing what it was like to collaborate with fellow pop powerhouse Britney Spears on the remix to “S&M.” “She was very, very great, very professional, and she worked really hard at it,” shared RiRi. “I think it’s very unexpected to see two artists of similar genres like that collaborate and get together.”

The 23-year-old singer also addressed reports that she was in talks to become a judge on Simon Cowell’s “The X Factor.” “It’s something I would have loved to do, but our schedule doesn’t allow,” she regrettably said. “We’re going to be on tour for the rest of the year.”

She was originally planning to perform “S&M” on tomorrow’s “American Idol,” but decided to go with “California King Bed.” “With those lyrics, it would have been really uncomfortable for me to perform them in front of six year olds, knowing that four year olds are watching,” she explained. “I decided to go with ‘California King Bed.’ Something a little more subtle.”

She will, however, open next month’s Billboard Music Awards with her raunchy hit single.

Have you notice that Tamborine commented before any of Rihanna’s fans. I swear they are obsessed with Rih. Can’t say I blame them she is so unpredictable and never boring. I am so happy that Rihanna is breaking so many records.I am so proud to be a fan.Keep doing your thing Rih and let the hate fuel/motivate you to exceed expectations. Cute interview.

I like Rihanna and the whole Loud album, but the remix was not good at all. Britney’s voice doesn’t go well with the beat and whoever mixed it should be ashamed…

To (um.well.sure.)…That hole between your crack is not the hole you listen through! Britney sounds H-O-T HOT on the re-mix. Don’t be jealous, it’ll be o.k.! Like I’ve told other PATHETIC, DESPERATE, JEALOUS LOSERS LIKE YOURSELF…Please give us a list of all your albums and songs that have been #1 so we can all go to YOUTUBE and watch your videos so you can show us how it should be done. Hrmmm…
THAT’S WHAT I THOUGHT-LOSER! It’s always the GROSE, OBESE, DISGUSTING, FRIEND-LESS, JEALOUSE LOSERS that hide behind their computers to write their crap without using their real name! Also, it would be a cold day in hell before you posted a full length picture of yourself because (1) you know what
people would say! But then, you don’t need us to repeat what your own family says about you to your face! and (2) I doubt you could fit your whole body on a standard 4×6 print! What a REJECT!!! IT’S BRTINEY BITCH! THAT’S QUEEN B TO YOU!!
