It blows to be Rihanna

Rihanna at the 'Good Morning America' Times Square New York
Rihanna has revealed that gossip almost ruined her friendship with Jay-Z.

Rihanna told Guardian Weekend that claims she had given the rapper a blow job to secure a record contract made her feel weird around him.

‘It was like, “Of course she had to give [Jay-Z] a blow job to get that deal,”‘ explains Rihanna.

‘That rumour was everywhere in Barbados, and it was so disgusting, it made me feel really weird – I would even be weird around Jay-Z. I wouldn’t be able to look him in the eye.’

Jay-Z has supported Rihanna through the gossip.

‘One day, he called and he was like, “Yo, you can’t buy into these rumours, you can’t let people move you with anything they say,”‘


‘The rumours started getting very funny to me after that.’

It must really suck being a star, especially when these kind of rumours are flying around.
