Rumor Put to Rest, Rihanna Isn't A Lesbian

Socialite Life debuted back in 2003. SL Flashback showcases some of our favorite content from years past.

Sorry, ladies. And horny boys alike. All those silly rumors that Rihanna is gay apparently is just a case of lame journalism.

People have been abuzz about Rihanna supposedly being quoted as saying, “All humans are born with the ability to be attracted to both sexes. I mean, I could see myself in a relationship with a girl,” when all she really did was answer a question about acting.

In an interview with the Daily Star, Rihanna was asked if she’d like to get into acting at some point. She responded by saying, “I’d love to be an assassin. Either that or a lesbian. Maybe both! Hey, a gay assassin, there’s nothing hotter than that.” And when asked WHO she’d be a gay assassin with, well folks, that’s when Rihanna said, Megan Fox.

However, the Daily Star then went on to quote Megan Fox, who was actually the one who said that she could see herself in a relationship with a girl. Instead of clearly stating that Megan said this, the oh-so-vague pronoun ‘she’ was used, resulting in utter gossip chaos.

Sorry for all the fantasies I just crushed. But then again, imagine the thought of a movie with Megan Fox and Rihanna starring as lovers AND assassins. Somebody’s got to hop on that ASAP.
