Rihanna: Bad weather in the UK was not my fault

R&B beauty RIHANNA insists she is not to blame for the rotten weather that hit the U.K. after her song UMBRELLA became a success there.

The Barbados-born beauty has heard theories the hugely successful song is somehow to blame for the rainy conditions in the U.K. this summer (07) - but concedes the bad weather actually helped her career.

Speaking at the Mobo Nominations Launch on Wednesday (22Aug07) in London, she says, "I feel bad about that. I don’t think it’s my fault.

"I think the weather helped to keep the song there for so long. It worked for me."

Some people are so stupid.

How does a song about an umbrella affect the weather?

I was there from mid june to early august and I had hardly no freaking sunny days. It was bad enough that I heard that damned song everywhere I went, let alone having to rummage around for an actual umbrella.
