Rihanna has revealed that she was never hungry for fame when she was an up and coming singer.

The 'Umbrella' hit maker, who got her first record deal at the age of 17, told Vogue magazine that she sang a lot as a child and practiced hard to manoeuvre her voice, but she never wanted to be famous, Contactmusic reported.

The 25-year-old singer asserted that she loves singing and wanted her music to be heard all over the world.

She added that her success came with the popularity.
