Rihanna looking to be a star on silver screen

Rihanna is aiming to replicate Beyonce Knowles' transition from singing sensation to screen idol - she wants to become a movie star.

The singer got her first taste of acting when she made a cameo appearance in 2006 film 'Bring It On: All or Nothing'.

And now the Barbados beauty wants to take centre stage on the big screen.

She told Britain's OK! Magazine: "I'd love to star in some movies, that's my next goal. I love my music but I want to get into movies and I want to start some businesses of my own."

And that isn't Rihanna's only aspiration for the future: "I like clothes, I love make-up, so maybe I could have a hand in some of those things."
