Rihanna not ill, OK?
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 8 June 2012
One from the ‘Not In The Pop Hospital’ file now, as Rihanna has denied rumours that she has delayed a trip to good old London town because she’s ill.
The singer has cancelled some UK activity, including, seemingly, involvement in a planned fashion-based reality TV programme due to be made for Sky Living. But, says the singer on Twitter, Sky’s sister newspaper The Sun was way wrong when it said that she had quit the telly project because of ill health, brought on by months of partying far too hard.
Writing on the tweets, Rihanna said yesterday: “Nonsense, I’m not sick! I pushed my trip to London back to go spend time with my family! Sorry kiddos”, before adding: “The Sun newspaper is like a fuckin ass hair, full of shit!” What a lovely image, thanks for that Rihanna.
Meanwhile, the singer’s later than planned arrival in the UK will not affect her headline booking for this year’s Wireless festival on 8 Jul, organisers of the Hyde Park event confirmed yesterday, and she’s also still set to play Radio 1’s Hackney Weekend later this month.
