Rihanna’s BRIT Awards Perrformance

Rihanna’s career is flying at the moment – she recently bagged a Grammy Award & has celebrated huge success with many of her singles – but the one thing the ‘Umbrella’ hitmaker is most grateful for is a Brit Award.

The singer – who turns 20 today, is bursting with pride that her music is appreciated across the pond. “I’m more excited than the Grammys,” she said. “The Brits are fantastic and I’m thrilled with my nomination.”

The pint-sized singer – who’s set to battle it out with Alicia Keys, Kylie Minogue, Bjork and Feist, in the Best International Female category, doesn’t reckon she’ll win the coveted gong – but is glad to be taking part. “I’ve got my fingers crossed. It’s a tough category,” she added.

What’s she’s most looking forward to, though, is her special performance with “badass” Brit band Klaxons.

She added to British newspaper The Sun: “They’re a badass band. I’m so excited to be working with characters like that. I was talking to Mark Ronson about our duet and he thinks it’s the coolest thing ever.

“I want to release our collaboration. It is so sick. I really wish we’d worked together earlier.”
