"Battleship" Star Rihanna DISHES On Kicking Butt In Her New Movie + PETA BLASTS Rihanna For Animal Abuse

Battleship star Rihanna, who was spotted out at dinner in Cali yesterday, opened up about her exciting new film recently, revealing that she injured herself performing her own stunts. 

See pics and get the deets about PETA attacking Rih Rih for wearing feathers inside....

 

Back from her vacation in Italy, Rihanna was spotted dining out in L.A. last night.  The "Fly" singer had dinner with a friend at Giorgio Baldi restaurant in Santa Monica:

She looked a little "preoccupied" as the photographers snapped her picture. 

One reason for that may be her father's recent illness.  Also, she recently filed a lawsuit, regarding her new home, saying it requires many improvements she wasn't made aware of.  
 

But one bright spot is that she'll soon to make her big screen debut in the Peter Berg-directed film Battleship (debuting May 18, 2012), which co-stars Liam Neeson, Alexander Skarsgard, and Taylor Kitsch.

During a recent interview, she revealed that she performed many of her own stunts in the film where she stars Navy weapons officer Raikes, an alien hunter.

 “She’s a fighter, she’s a killer,” explained RiRi. “I’m one of the boys. We do everything together. We go on all our missions together.”

She explained that her character allowed her the opportunity to pay tribute to the men and women of the armed forces who protect our country.

“They’re real men and women—everyday heroes, fighting everyday. It’s really good to represent that.”

And do you remember this outfit?

 

Rihanna sparked an outrage with the folks over at PETA, who issued a statement attacking her for wearing feathers and they even threw her domestic violence incident in her face.

PETA spokeswoman Sandra Smiley told the Daily Star,

 'Rihanna is flaunting stolen property, in this case feathers possibly plucked right off their rightful owners’ backs. She has shown little regard for foxes, cows and reptiles, now she’s adding birds to the list of species exploited for her dubious looks.

Feathers are often ripped off chickens, geese, ostriches and emus in live plucking. This can result in gaping wounds that are sewn up with a needle and thread without anaesthetic.

Then she hit below the belt saying,

'We keep hoping that Rihanna, a victim of violence herself, will learn to open her heart and start empathising with the suffering of others."

SMH.....PETA might be jumping the gun on this one as neither Rihanna nor the Fashion house of Antonio Berardi have publicly commented about the origin of the feathers.  It could just be some fancy thread work....
