“We worked with real military people, you know, people in the Navy, people who have fought in Iraq before. They pretty much came and drilled me. This one man, Donald, he.. yelled at me, cursed me…made me do pushups. Everything,” Ri said of the experience.

FYI: Rihanna is wearing Vans Classic Authentic shoes.
