10 Things You Didn't Know About Rihanna

You better have her money, else RiRi's gunna get real mad...

Feisty singer Rihanna has recently made headlines in a legal battle (that no one can really believe is actually happening) against DC Comics in an attempt to trademark the name Robyn. Why is this, you ask? Well, you may not know this, but Rihanna's first name is actually Robyn. She's filed a trademark request for the name in order to use it as a title for her upcoming fashion and cosmetics franchise. As if this woman hasn't got enough money already... Regardless, she's going ahead with it. Thing is, DC don't like it, because the name Robyn is too close to that of Batman's sidekick Robin - and they're fighting against the threatening trademark in case comic consumers confuse Rihanna's make up with their own boy wonder. Like Robin himself would be selling his own brand of mascara. The whole thing seems utterly ridiculous, but there you have it: one new headline for the media to slog over. Anyway, in light of the legal fight and the news that Rihanna isn't actually RirR's real name, it seems fitting to learn a few more new facts about the songstress - which hopefully aren't as antagonising as the Robyn fiasco.

I love Stephen King and music festivals; I eat my toast upside down; I daydream about getting married probably a bit too much; and I wish every day for a pet sausage dog puppy (who never materialises – sob).
