Rihanna reveals her 'only regret,' and it's an enviable one
When Rihanna sat down for her April Vogue cover interview, she did it in the most Rihanna way possible: "reclining on a chaise on a veranda in the sun, taking pulls from a joint and sending wisps of smoke into the cloudless California sky," according to writer Abby Aguirre.
"I’m gonna live like tomorrow doesn’t exist!" Rihanna said. "Like it doesn’t exist!"
Fresh off the release of Anti, the Barbados-born pop star talked to the magazine about ditching the one-album-a-year pop formula to make "honest" music -- "I felt like I earned the right to do that now,” she says -- and about the Internet's tendency to pit her against Beyonce, a notion she shrugged off.

“Here’s the deal,” Rihanan said. “They just get so excited to feast on something that’s negative. Something that’s competitive. Something that’s, you know, a rivalry. And that’s just not what I wake up to. Because I can only do me. And nobody else is going to be able to do that.”
In the middle of a conversation about fashion and her new Puma collection, Rihanna also said revealed her life's "only regret," and it's the kind of "only regret" that only Rihanna would have:
She seems very comfortable in the role. Just consider the dress she wore to accept the Fashion Icon Award from the Council of Fashion Designers of America in 2014, a sheer, Swarovski-encrusted fishnet number by Adam Selman that left little to the imagination.
“I just liked it better without the lines underneath. Could you imagine the CFDA dress with a bra? I would slice my throat. I already wanted to, for wearing a thong that wasn’t bedazzled. That’s the only regret I have in my life.”
Wearing a thong that wasn’t bedazzled is your greatest regret in life?
“To the CFDA Awards. Yes.”
