29 November 2010 - R&B star RIHANNA will never let fans see her cry in public because she refuses to show her vulnerable side when she's dealing with business.

The Umbrella hitmaker has become known for her feisty and "aggressive" persona since bouncing back from her beating at the hands of ex-boyfriend Chris Brown in February 2009.

And the Bajan beauty insists on keeping her emotions under wraps while she's in the spotlight because she doesn't want to be seen as weak.

She tells Interview magazine, "I do have a vulnerable side. I think a lot of people have a misperception of me. They only see the tough, defensive, aggressive side. But every woman is vulnerable... I just don't like people to see me cry - I don't like to let them know when I'm bothered. You know? I just prefer it to be all about business."
