Rihanna Used Wilson Phillips for Backup Vocals!

Rihanna Used Wilson Phillips for Backup Vocals!

Rihanna heads to the dentist during a chilly afternoon in New York City on Tuesday (March 31).

The 27-year-old singer has a huge hit with her song “FourFiveSeconds” and now Carnie Wilson has revealed that Wilson Phillips did background vocals for the track!

“[Kanye West] said, ‘When I think of authenticity and I think of angelic, I think of you,’” Carnie told Billboard.

“He was really shy and he would just smile and he’s real soft-spoken, then all of a sudden when he started playing all these songs, he was dancing around the room,” she said. “It was just like how Michael Jackson used to be. When he would press play, it was like, out came the artist and the creativity was just really there.”

“He gave us sole freedom to just do what we do,” Carnie added. You can hear them on the bridge and the chorus!
