Rihanna on working as an actress: "I hate to hear myself speak"

Despite recently branching out into the world of acting, Bajan superstar Rihanna has admitted that she doesn't enjoy hearing hear own voice played back to her.

Speaking to Access Hollywood, Rihanna explained that listening to herself trying to portray an American accent in her debut movie 'Battleship' was especially awkward, but now that she is expanding her career it's important to "get used to it":

"I hate to hear myself speak. Especially because I was speaking in an American accent… but I guess I've always been like that. I hate to hear myself speak, so now it's a whole different thing. I have to get used to it."

"I definitely was weirded out in seeing myself onscreen, and hearing myself speak in an American accent. It was weird but cool I think."
