RiRi says NoNo to Bodyguard Role

You don’t have to ask Rihanna if she’s interested, she’ll save you time and tell you no in advance.

Rihanna wasn’t officially asked if she would step into Whitney Houston’s shoes for an upcoming remake of “The Bodyguard.” But if she was offered the part, or that of any singing role, RiRi would say no-no.

She told OK! Magazine that the part would not be challenging enough and that she wants to her separate singing from acting.

“I hate it when singers do singing movies all the time, because you can never look at them as anybody else,” she said.

Audiences will get a chance to see Rihanna’s role playing-side with her upcoming performance in the “Battleship” movie, based on the board game.

Rihanna’s big screen debut will come out in May 2012, and includes stars like Alexander Skarsgard from “True Blood" and Taylor Kitsch, who plays Gambit in the “X-Men” movies.
