Rihanna and A$AP Rocky took turns asking each other questions in virtual Face to Face sessions.
For Vogue, Rihanna took 15 questions from A$AP Rocky, who modelled in her debut Fenty Skin campaign.
The rap star asked Rihanna what she first notices in someone. “I usually tend to look at their skin, their teeth, their smile,” she said, “and then after that it’s more about like whatever energy they’re giving off.”
Her beauty icon? “This is going to sound very cliché but, my mother. My entire concept of beauty came from her.” She also spoke about wanting more diversity and representation in the beauty industry.
Asked if she prefers a jacket or umbrella, Rihanna replied: “This is a trick question because my fans might feel like I’m a hypocrite. I made the most money off of a song called ‘Umbrella’ … Jacket!”
Rihanna turned the tables on A$AP Rocky to ask him 18 questions for GQ.
Asked to name his skin type, the rapper replied “handsome” and got an eye-roll from Rihanna.
Rocky shared his favourite curse word and revealed the food he would never eat. He also talked about his self-care routine. “Showering, taking care of my skin, exfoliating, moisturizing,” he said. “Just cleansing myself, grooming, trimming.”
What was the last thing he bought that was under $20? “A T-shirt. I bought a T-shirt for, like, $11. I came up on it. I’ll take a free T-shirt. My favourite price is free-ninety-nine.”
Rihanna asked Rocky what he binge-watches. “Cartoons! I like to watch cartoons, as weird as it is,” he said. “The older the better. Vintage cartoons, that’s my vibe.”
