Rihanna Wants To Work With Depeche Mode, Ellie Goulding And La Roux

November 8, 2010
Rihanna Wants To Work With Depeche Mode, Ellie Goulding And La RouxRihanna has spoken highly of British artists, revealing that she is a big fan of Ellie Goudling and La Roux.

The singer, who listens to British radio in her hotel room, also said that she wanted to work with Depeche Mode.

Rihanna told The Sun Goulding as a “one of a kind”, adding: “Her voice is unbelievable. Even if she just writes for me, I want to work with her somehow.“

She continued: “When I'm here I just put the music channels on all day long so I can see what's happening, what I like.

“That's how I found out about Amy Winehouse before she came to America. And La Roux, I love her."

Rihanna, who recently said she wanted to work with Cheryl Cole, releases her new studio album ‘Loud’ next week.

The follow-up to 2009’s ‘Rated R’ includes collaborations with Drake, Nicki Minaj and Eminem.
