Last year singer Rihanna was the victim of Chris Brown‘s violent temper — this year she is on top of the world. Not only does she have a loving boyfriend, MLB player Matt Kemp, but her career is on fire as well.

The January 2011 cover of British GQ features the red head looks amazing and ever-so-happy. In the interview Rihanna explains that she was never seeking pity from her fans but does wish that time in her life would disappear. As bad as the experience was, it has definitely made her a stronger woman.

RiRi regrets only one thing — missing the wedding of her BFF Katy Perry.

The GQ issue hits newsstands on Thursday. See more photos below:
