Chris Martin, Coldplay frontman, was very “inspired” when he worked with his ‘Princess of China’ collaborator because so many other “cool” people want to record and write with her, likening the atmosphere around her to a “holiday camp” for those in the industry.He said:

“She’s a very fascinating, interesting person. She’s very mysterious. When Rihanna’s making an album she’s talented enough that lots of cool people want to work on it. So it’s not like I’m the only one. When we were working together it was inspiring because you’re around a lot of other people. It’s sort of like some kind of holiday camp for producers and musicians.”

We don’t see her out often but last night Rihanna was photographed at a recording studio in Los Angeles. On June 30 she posted a photo from the studio on her Twitter account.

No. 8 ($48 million – June 2013 – June 2014): Rihanna may be the perfect embodiment of the modern pop star. The 26-year-old Barbados native churns out radio hits like “We Found Love” and “Diamonds” and collaborates with some of the biggest names in the business like Jay-Z and Eminem. But she also uses social media better than almost anyone. Her Twitter and Instagram feeds allow her to connect with her fans in a way that feels honest and unfiltered and they love her for it. Rihanna is the second most-powerful social media user on our list after Justin Bieber.
