Calvin Harris admits that he felt ‘too awkward’ to befriend Rihanna after the pair worked together on the biggest hit single of 2011.
The producer worked with Rihanna on the hit ‘We Found Love’, but never managed to get close to her despite Rihanna being friendly.
When Q magazine asked if the two became close while working on the song, Harris said: “Not very at all, but that's my own fault because I'm really awkward around her.
“It's bad. She's tried. She's like, ‘Yeah, come on and hang out in my dressing room.’ I'm like, ‘Arrrgh!’ I mean, what do I say to Rihanna? There's nothing! She's great, she's well friendly, she's nice, I see that. But. I can't.’”
Harris finished by speaking about the first time he played ‘We Found Love’ for Rihanna’s label, saying he was terrified.
He added: “I remember that it was very loud. All the label were sat there. I just remember thinking, ‘I hope all these f**kers like it. I hope they understand what it is.’”
