She's trying to control her accent people. That's why she takes a while to talk. Her accent is super strong so if she talks fast no one will understand. If you actually take the time to really listen to her you can tell she's doing it purposely.
Ok for all the people who are going to ask why she talks so slow, she is Bajan, and their accent is actually extremely hard, so if she wants to be clear she has to talk slow so her accent doesnt take over
I really like Rihanna. I don't like all her songs, definitely don't own a complete album of hers, but I like her as a person. She's so honest, chill and so real.
The accent she has is new to me, I like it... Not sure if it's American or Caribbean (Barbadian), or a mix of both... I'll just call it Rihannaan in honour of her great soul
we all know her singing voice is great! but her normal voice is so sweet and cute and great as well :) can hear her speak all day. has such a cute laugh and giggle as well
Mariah is the greatest female songwriter and vocalist in the world. It's not surprising that she actually look up to her. She even sang HERO in a contest a couple of years back. she's talented and creative in her own ways, so her taste should to be the best.
Rianna is biracial in the same way Mariah is biracial just the opposite way, Ri Ri has one black parent one half white half black parent making her 1/4 white and Mariah has one Full white parent and one biracial parent ( her father ) mariahs father wasn't FULL BLACK he was half black and half non black Venezuelan and the reason i say " non black Venezuelan " is because.... you have black Venezuelans, however the Venezuelan part wasn't black, it was of mestizo origin which is native Indian mixed with white . So that makes Mariah 50 Irish 1/4 black 1/4 mestizo so she is not Half black she's 1/4 and if that's enough to make Mariah biracial why not ri ri ? And yes the average black person has some admixture and some some have 25 % from slavery but you have to go all the way back and claim a white slave master to prove it ri ri can look at her white grandparent and claim them most black people don't have a white grandparent you have a white master that's as close as your going to get to claiming being part white. And also the study they did to get their average of white blood in the average black person in America.... they applied the one drop rule meaning they was doing the study on first generation biracial people too and mixed the biracial peoples results in with the results from the people who had 2 black parents hiking up the admixture of white blood found in the average for black Americans, they shouldn't have included first or second generation biracials in that study .
It's not the same. Biracial means each parent is a different ethnicity. Rihanna's FATHER is biracial and mother is black but also probably has white ancestry. Mariah's mother is white and father is black Venezuelan not half black and half Venezuelan. Mariah is actually more like Rihanna's dad ethnically and Rihanna is like Mariah's kids.
When she diets, unfortunately shes not as lively. If you look at her 2011 and 2016 interviews on Ellen where shes at a regular weight, she is more upbeat.
She love Mariah Carey! i love when young artist like her truly look up her idol as one of the biggest star in the world and inspired her to keep on miving and make so many records kudos to Rihanna
Rihanna is not biracial. ...her dad is a light black man who may be considered mixed and her mother is black. It kills me how everyone tries to consider themselves "mixed" because they aren't proud of being fully black. Our ancestors died because they were black, and yes some of them were "mixed". We as black people have a long way to go to overcome our issues, all of which come from Post Traumatic Slave Syndrome
Kreshenda Jenkins ...Please read this linking: about Loving vs Virigina (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loving_v._Virginia) case resulted at U.S. Supreme Court in 1967! ...It means one of three bad and racist laws (1. Anti-Miscegenation (United States: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-miscegenation_laws_in_the_United_States International: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-miscegenation_laws) 2. One-Drop Rule () 3. Racial Integrity Act of 1924 (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racial_Integrity_Act_of_1924)) that One-Drop Rule law is illegailly now! ...Rihanna (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rihanna) born in Caribbean Islands and their laws is different from here, United States and their old law is "One-Drop Rule of Europe Blood" while here in United States it was "One-Drop Rule of Africa Blood" ...We, Americans, have our rights to identify our variety of our heritage according to our DNA test resulted while Rihanna can be as Multiracial-Barbadian (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbadian_people)! PERIOD! :-? :-\ :-|
Caribbean's are just as racist as Americans in history. There were slave ships sent there as they were here. Rihanna is not biracial, if she is, all African American are who have two black parents that have European blood in them. That's my stance, I respect your opinion but I disagree
Corianna Givens That's you're opinion....to me your statement doesn't make sense. If there were someone who was saying they were another race when they blantantly aren't society would look at them like they were crazy. To me, you have the ignorance, and I don't mean that disrespectful I mean you don't know or understand where I am coming from.
I love her to death! I cannot wait until April 12th for you to come to VEGAS baby! Gosh she's so talented! So glad I saw you at the iHeartRadio here! (:
Exactly. And her mom is black and her dad is "mixed." But that makes her 75%/mostly black. People just can't be happy with being black. Everyone has SOME mix.
+ily Mia she is biracial. shes afro-caribbean mixed with indo-caribbean. u do realise that a lot of people in the islands are natives, not african. just like native americans
ily Mia shes mixed. just because u feel like she is completely black, she isnt. and im glad that she choses not to ignore her native bajan heritage as it is something that seems to have been forgotten about in the mainstream media
ily Mia people like you are probably the reason she identifies with mariah carey so much because guess what? mariah carey is as much black as she is, he dad was black. but she was seen as a white person because of her appearance and just because rihanna looks black doesnt mean that she doesnt have native bajan in her blood!! why do people like you feel the need to ridicule her for this
I love Riannah's laugh, and I also like her a lot more now I've seen her in an interview, I like her more because I think she seems much more genuine and nice.
Who would hate on Rihanna?! All I said was she does not look mixed at all. Her features look African so does her skin tone, just because it's lighter doesn't mean it's "mixed". She just looks like a light skinned black girl and there is NOTHING wrong with that SMH. Be happy with who you are. End of story. #Dismissed
how do you know? they said the same about Madonna and Angelina Jolie and they seem fine. She's young and enjoying her life, she has plenty of time before she decides to be a mom. She seems like a loving and focused person, I think she'd be just fine.
Rihanna can get any guy she wants, but she only wants Chris because they love eachother. Not every woman who gets beaten suffers from BWS, she's a strong independent woman. Chris probably wasn't the big, bad abuser that people made him out to be. They were abusive towards eachother according to her, it just got WAY out of hand that night. Doesn't mean he's a bad person. They both had issues they needed to address, they took some time off to do that, and now they're back together
I NEVER KNEW RIHANNA HAD AN ACCENT! Her accent is just so...... I don't want to be rude, but it's just so..... New to me! It makes me look at her in a totally new view.
Rihanna has always said she isn't a role model, she lives as she pleases, so why would parents want her to be one? Parents should be role models to kids, not celebrities.
hahaaa hows about Shut The Fuk Up Haterz! Shes doin her thang n she doin it well... Shes killing it.. Why? Because she is an absolutely amazing artist. Whenshe speaks, everyone stops to listen.. her clips speak to ppl, her songs touch their souls.when she sings its like she singing on behalf of u.. and the whole while maintaining her BADASS attitute & keepin it real. Ppl dont know about her..she was rollin arnd with cars n guns when she was like 13.. daaam ppl she grew up in Barbados! She an O.G
She's trying to control her accent people. That's why she takes a while to talk. Her accent is super strong so if she talks fast no one will understand. If you actually take the time to really listen to her you can tell she's doing it purposely.
+Lee stevens my daily struglle
We get it, thank you.
Also for anyone who is still there, Rihanna is an introvert. And it takes a longer time for them to articulate themselves
@@milanihall8698 is that what she told you?
Rihanna's talking voice is so unexpected - it's so different then her singing voice
i love seeing Rihanna childish and relaxed.
Almost 10 years later, she’s going to be a mom🥰
She deserves it
A mom of two !!!
i love her voice
She's so sweet and soft spoken, and her laugh is adorable
Ok for all the people who are going to ask why she talks so slow, she is Bajan, and their accent is actually extremely hard, so if she wants to be clear she has to talk slow so her accent doesnt take over
speaking out experience since I moved to Barbados
I really like Rihanna. I don't like all her songs, definitely don't own a complete album of hers, but I like her as a person. She's so honest, chill and so real.
The accent she has is new to me, I like it... Not sure if it's American or Caribbean (Barbadian), or a mix of both...
I'll just call it Rihannaan in honour of her great soul
+Sean It's Bajan accent
she alters her barbadian accent just a bit for interview purposes. it's a small hint of both Caribbean flavour in it
Vaudenoir its def Barbadian she's just speaking slow so y'all can understand
Her laugh is just perfect!
I love her accent
Her laugh is like the cutest thing ever hahah
Rihanna is always so well-spoken and likable in interviews.
I love Rihanna's laugh. Soo cute!
I didn't even know that Rihanna was only a year older than Taylor Swift!!
ikr she seems so much more mature/older. maybe its their demeanors.
because Rihanna is precede her age in fame and success .
+kokokinu because rihanna doesnt still make music for teenage girls
Jordan Williams a
we all know her singing voice is great! but her normal voice is so sweet and cute and great as well :) can hear her speak all day. has such a cute laugh and giggle as well

She's soo god damn beautiful!

Her dad is mixed so shes black but not full black.
I LOOOOVE THE WAY SHE TALKS!!!

we want the whole interview! :D
When she diets, unfortunately shes not as lively. If you look at her 2011 and 2016 interviews on Ellen where shes at a regular weight, she is more upbeat.
I love how Rihanna talk
Ellen: "I gotta be more naked or something" HAHAHA the best line!! Anyway, Rihanna is SO gorgeous, thinner, but still looking great!
She love Mariah Carey! i love when young artist like her truly look up her idol as one of the biggest star in the world and inspired her to keep on miving and make so many records kudos to Rihanna

I meant the Caribbean's have a history of racism just as Americans, not that they are just as racist
you cant tell someone that the race the identify with is wrong. that makes you ignorant.

Thanks ellen so much for invite rihanna i hope you'll invite rihanna every week
People always talk about accent, That shit is irritating, god, Just because someone has a accent is not a human?
She was so little around this time! She looks so amazing at any size, beautiful woman 😍
So she want kids cool I sign for the father role :D
Not accepeted
i really adore Rihanna ! Love her so much and respect her in every way !
"I gotta be more naked or something" LMAO
I'm here Riri, I'm here! ^^
nationality isnt the same as race. hbajan isnt a race either lol poor baby. her mother is a black guyanese and her father is half white/ black.
I love her to death! I cannot wait until April 12th for you to come to VEGAS baby! Gosh she's so talented! So glad I saw you at the iHeartRadio here! (:
I love the thick Rihanna ❤
i love her voice when she speaks she sounds kinda amazing idk
She's NOT biracial just light skinned. Big difference! Stop the self-hate Rihanna!
She is biracial
um no.
For rihanna Her dad has irish in him thats why she has green eyes. Idk about mariah.
For all you guys FYI Mariah Carey is half black and half white okay.
Jessica De Los Santos
just because her dad has Irish doesn't mean that's why she has green eyes.
Exactly. And her mom is black and her dad is "mixed." But that makes her 75%/mostly black. People just can't be happy with being black. Everyone has SOME mix.
me too lol
FULL INTERVIEW PLEASE !!!!
She is high.
I try to go study for my exam, then I click on one ellen video. Then it doesn't stop. DAMN.
LOL Rihanna black ! Stop this madness.
+ily Mia she is biracial. shes afro-caribbean mixed with indo-caribbean. u do realise that a lot of people in the islands are natives, not african. just like native americans
+J P Williams yes. At the end of the day she is black though.
ily Mia shes mixed. just because u feel like she is completely black, she isnt. and im glad that she choses not to ignore her native bajan heritage as it is something that seems to have been forgotten about in the mainstream media
+J P Williams I'm not saying she isn't mixed. I'm just saying at the end of the day she is black and what people see is black.
ily Mia people like you are probably the reason she identifies with mariah carey so much because guess what? mariah carey is as much black as she is, he dad was black. but she was seen as a white person because of her appearance and just because rihanna looks black doesnt mean that she doesnt have native bajan in her blood!! why do people like you feel the need to ridicule her for this
get adblock it is seriously the best. I was skeptical at first but decided to give it a try and It is one of the best things ever.
I love Riannah's laugh, and I also like her a lot more now I've seen her in an interview, I like her more because I think she seems much more genuine and nice.
its the advertisement that plays before the clip starts.
God I was born in '89 and I just sit in front of my computer watching Ellen's videos and what does she do? She's an international superstar. Wow.
She can get inspiration for things other than her music..and I'm pretty sure she writes some of her songs.
Love this, ellen and Rihanna in the same video "heaven"
i love her laugh at 1.36 :)
I love rihanna and her and chris brown are back together. I just hope he doesnt hurt her again and leave this girl alone karrueche
Mariah~ the queen who inspires everyone
it's like that with a lot of other singer too. Singing has more to do with memory&presentation than actual thought process. It's like acting.
Who would hate on Rihanna?! All I said was she does not look mixed at all. Her features look African so does her skin tone, just because it's lighter doesn't mean it's "mixed". She just looks like a light skinned black girl and there is NOTHING wrong with that SMH. Be happy with who you are. End of story. #Dismissed
i love her laughter and accent
I second this! works for me like a charm and always has.
she shines bright like a diamond
me too! i thought they meant when jb asked her out but i still didnt know...
So much better than last year.
how do you know? they said the same about Madonna and Angelina Jolie and they seem fine. She's young and enjoying her life, she has plenty of time before she decides to be a mom. She seems like a loving and focused person, I think she'd be just fine.

I NEVER KNEW RIHANNA HAD AN ACCENT! Her accent is just so...... I don't want to be rude, but it's just so..... New to me! It makes me look at her in a totally new view.
I'll be dating you anytime. I'm not intimidating by her at all. I could handle her pretty well, trust me.
lol true. She looks healthy. Everyone is not meant to be the same size.
omg I love rihannas. shes my idol
Rihanna has always said she isn't a role model, she lives as she pleases, so why would parents want her to be one? Parents should be role models to kids, not celebrities.
