In the upcoming issue of Cosmopolitan UK, the red-haired pop princess opens up to the UK publication about what a male suitor has to do to earn her trust.

“I’m open to love. But guys should have to earn it. Because the minute they get it, they want something else,” she says in the issue. “Men are like hunters: they like the chase. So you have to keep ‘em guessing. Actually, I’m like that too. I get bored quickly. So if someone can make me laugh, that’s the best.”

However, when you’re a pop star as big as Ri Ri is, most guys might feel a tad bit “intimidated” when it comes to dealing with her fame.

“It can definitely be intimidating to guys to date someone in this industry. It’s really hard to find a guy who doesn’t care about that stuff. Right now, it’s easier just having my career to focus on,” she said.

And given the not so “happy” nature of her most public relationship to date, the Barbados native reveals that nowadays when it comes to her emotions she’s a bit more guarded than most.

“It was a very aggressive and defensive time, and that allowed me to start not giving a sh*t. I walked around with a very f**k you attitude. I’ve always been good at masking my emotions. For me, it’s tougher to be vulnerable than to be tough.”

Isn’t that the case with most girls nowadays? ”I’ve been hurt before so now I have trouble letting people in.” Lol EVERY guy has become familiarized with that line.

Thoughts??
