Rihanna blows us away, decked out in a sexy leather-and-lace outfit in the November issue of Vogue.
The sultry siren confesses to the magazine that she needs to accept that the world will never understand her relationship with singer Chris Brown.
The 24-year-old “S&M” singer hinted that she has moved on from the night in February 2009 when Brown assaulted her — and that she wants everyone else to, as well.
“The world hasn’t let go. They haven’t seen any progress in our friendship, because they don’t see anything,” Rihanna said.
“But they’re not on the inside. They can’t see what I see, unless they’re sitting in my point of view. I guess I’ll learn to accept that.”
Brown, 23, said he dumped girlfriend Karrueche Tran this month to work on his relationship with Rihanna. The two were photographed cuddling recently at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
Rihanna, who has also been romantically linked to hip-hop star Drake, dismissed claims that the bloody brawl between Drake’s and Brown’s camps at a Meatpacking District nightclub last June had been over her.
“I wasn’t there. It had nothing to do with me,” she said.
