In a new interview with ET’s Rachel Smith, the 32-year-old singer gets candid on how this year’s unique events (like the ongoing coronavirus pandemic) have inspired her to think more creatively.
When asked about creating and working on her music in quarantine, Rihanna responds, “It impacts everything.
It impacts the timing for a lot, it impacts touring, it impacts how feasible is it to travel or have people you want to work with travel to you.”
“It forces you to figure it out and I’m that type of girl,” she says. “I just want to figure out a solution. I don’t want to stay stuck on the problem.”
“I’m like, ‘OK, so what do we do about it?’ With COVID-19, every day has been, ‘So what do you do about it?’ Because there’s always a challenge,” she adds. “Every day there’s something different, and so the ‘what do you do about it’ aspect has come into full play during this quarantine. It’s helped a lot and it’s forced me to figure things out and get creative and clever about it.”
Rihanna, who’s fortunately stayed healthy and busy amid quarantine, says this time, overall, has been a “humbling experience” for her… a time to focus on all her passions. But to stay motivated and inspired, she also makes sure to schedule in a little self-care and fun.
“I’ve been just sitting in robes with no makeup and whatever my hair does that day,” she admits, telling ET she starts to “dial back a lot” when she feels overwhelmed. “There’s a lot happening always and when I get into those little crevasses of those huge moments, I just try to think about what I really love to do. Like, what truly makes me happy, and it’s really the littlest things.”
