'I have a lot of trouble switching off': Rihanna reveals that she gets less than FOUR HOURS of sleep every night, admitting that she prefers to stay up and binge-watch TV shows
- The 29-year-old opened up about her sleep habits in a new interview with French Vogue, whose December issue features her as guest editor
- Rihanna also opened up about her various heroes, singling out Princess Diana for the infamous 'revenge dress' she wore after Prince Charles admitted infidelity
As one of the world's biggest pop stars, it's no surprise that Rihanna has one seriously busy schedule.
In fact, the singer has revealed that not only does she struggle to 'switch off' at all, even in her downtime, but she usually only sleeps at all for three to four hours a night.
The This Is What You Came For star opened up about her personal life in a recent interview with Vogue Paris, as she guest edits the December issue of the magazine.

Standing up: The 29-year-old superstar admits that she struggles to 'switch off' when she gets home at night
She is the star of three different covers for the magazine, shot by Jean-Paul Goude, Juergen Teller and photographer duo Inez Van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin.
One of the shots sees Rihanna lounging in a fluffy yellow stole and towel on her head, while another sees her in a black leather beret with netted veil and red lipstick. The third features the Only Girl (In The World) singer in black and white with tousled bangs.
The shocking tidbit could be found in the image caption for a photo showing Rihanna leaping into a pool, where she talks about what she does with her free time.

Toughing it out: Rihanna admits that she tends to binge-watch TV shows instead of go to sleep
Not quite: The CDC recommends adults between 18 and 60 get between seven and eight hours of sleep per night
'I have a lot of trouble switching off. Even when I get home early, which means before 1 am, I start binge-watching shows or documentaries, which I love,' she says, according to WWD's translation of the French text.
'I can’t go straight to bed. As a matter of fact, I only sleep three or four hours a night.'
While Rihanna appears to be getting by without what most would consider a full night's sleep, the CDC recommends adults between the ages of 18 and 60 get at between seven and eight hours a night.
As a part of the feature, Rihanna opened up about some of her biggest inspirations including the likes of Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Tina Turner, her mother Monica Fenty and, surprisingly, Princess Diana.
Hitting back: Rihanna also praised Princess Diana for the 'Bad B**** moment' where she wore this stunning dress on the day Prince Charles confessed his infidelity in June, 1994

In particular, Rihanna raved about the famous 'revenge dress' Diana sported to the Serpentine Gallery’s summer party in 1994, the same say that Prince Charles publicly admitted to having been unfaithful to her.
'Every time a man cheats on you or treats you badly, you need a revenge dress. Every woman knows that,' she said.
'But whether her choice of this knockdown dress was conscious or not, I am touched by the idea that even Princess Diana could suffer like any ordinary woman. This Diana Bad B**** moment blew me away.'
In addition to the three French Vogue covers, Rihanna also appeared on a quartet of striking covers for Dazed magazine last week.
