Rihanna is reportedly planning on taking a sabbatical from the music industry, taking a year off before recording her eighth studio album.

The claim was made by Ryan Seacrest on his morning radio show in the US - with the American Idol host claiming that RiRi wants to calm things down after her current Diamonds world tour.

Seacrest said: "She's been in this go mode for a while. Seven hit records in seven years.

"Sold-out tours, but sources say after this tour wraps, she plans to take up to a year off to unwind."

Her world tour started in the US last night and will arrive in the UK in June.

Shes so generous, giving the competition a chance to shine before her 2015 comeback :')



but in all seriousness, I think this is probably best for her, shes been working non stop for years now so hopefully she'll take the time off to either start a family or decide on which direction she wants to take her career. and seen as people are getting tired of seeing her non-stop, even if she just takes 1 year off, its still more than shes ever done before.

Rihanna: Greatest Hits will probably be hitting shelves in November.

can she not have 10 xo

I call BS. She probably won't release an album this November but I'm sure we'll get something in 2014. There's no problem with her releasing constant music, the public aren't going to get sick of her because they would have done ages ago.

If she really does take a break though, she better milk this current era and then release a greatest hits in 2014 before releasing a new album Winter 2015.

she's over

It's probably bull****, they said this last year, no doubt she'll release an album this november and it'll (somehow) be worse than Unhygenic, wish she'd just piss off for good

She must be worried about the competition this year what with Cher (the relevant and more talented one) releasing

Oh god please be true

I'm not even going to bother educating you in why my fave is 1,000,000 better than yours because it'd be a waste of time and Tea

She needs to piss off and actually work on some decent material instead of her current practice of taking a dump on a CD and calling it an album.

I love Rihanna, she does need a break but so do Adele and Emeli Sande.

overexposure isn't just about album releases. having said that though, I don't think Adele has been overexposed in the last 12 months

[Black Dagger]

Adele has done practically 2 interviews and 2 performances in like 12 months. She even didn't do the Olympics Ceremony lolol (which Rihanna managed to ****ing work her way into)

[Me. I Am Salman]

they had to beg her, thanks

I know that quite well, I think the perfect example of someone who knows balance is eminem. He last released a song in 2011 and has been rarely pictured in public...Bowie is also a prime example, the music is there but they dont need to tour or any of the god awful embarrassing things some artists do.

People chastise Rihanna for being a workaholic when that's probably the only good thing about her. I doubt she'll take a year off. She's the kind of artist that needs to be everywhere to maximise potential and I don't think she wants to take a break either. She's like Beyoncé, constantly working.

gurl he was on a 50 cent song
