‘Acting was a whole different world,’ the singer-turned-actress tells MTV News, comparing ‘Battleship’ to her music videos. By Kara Warner, with reporting by Josh Horowitz Rihanna in “Battleship” Photo: Universal Pictures Given Rihanna ‘s illustrious and commanding presence in all her music videos , it seems as though the Caribbean-born superstar’s experience performing in various clips would be the perfect training ground for her eventual transition into full-fledged acting. When MTV News sat down with Rihanna recently to discuss her acting debut in “Battleship,” we asked if her work in music videos helped prepare her for her role in the film. “Training ground? Maybe not, it wasn’t exactly that,” Rihanna said. “For me, acting was a whole different world. We make mini-movies with music videos, but there’s always a song track that’s playing, you don’t have to speak, so [with acting] you have to tell that emotion with the tone of your voice, and I have an accent, so I had to change it to a bit of an American accent for this movie, so that was different,” she explained. So might we see more of Rihanna’s acting skills in future films? We asked the “Where Have U Been” singer if having her first film under her belt has given her the confidence to go out and conquer more movie roles. “It will always be brand-new, because it’s a whole different project every time, it’s a whole new person,” she said. “There’s nothing you can have under your belt with acting, not in my opinion, because I’m not a natural. This isn’t my first [career choice], so I don’t know. I think it’s always going to be a challenge for me, but I like that.” Check out everything we’ve got on “Battleship.” For breaking news, celebrity columns, humor and more — updated around the clock — visit MTVMoviesBlog.com .

Rihanna Calls Acting ‘A Challenge’ — But ‘I Like That’
According to Cleveland Police Chief Michael McGrath, there is nothing to hide when it comes to a controversial police video of Jalil Anderson’s arrest back in January. “There was no cover-up whatsoever. We are completely transparent in the police department,” said Chief McGrath. vAccording to the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor’s Office, Anderson was taken into custody on suspicion of driving under suspension. Officer Martin Lentz says Anderson assaulted him by hitting him in the face with his belt buckle, but the jailhouse video suggests otherwise. During Anderson’s pretrial, prosecutor’s subpoenaed the footage, only to be told it no longer existed. That led to Anderson pleading guilty of a lesser charge of resisting arrest. However, due to a media inquiry, the video was recently released. Surveillance video shows Anderson tossing his belt onto the counter and it appears to graze Officer Lentz. Lentz then walks around the counter, pushes Anderson to the counter, and Anderson is seen resisting the cuffs. Five other officers then assist Lentz in tackling Anderson to the ground. So, what really happened to the video? According to Police Chief Michael McGrath, it never got past the House of Corrections. “The House only stores footage for 30 days, so someone there told prosecutors that it no longer existed there,” said Chief McGrath. The prosecutor’s office says a complete review into what happened is currently underway. “They are more than welcome to do a thorough investigation, this was just a cliche in the system,” added Chief McGrath.

‘It helps to have a couple of experiences under your belt before you go and do something like a cameo,’ he tells MTV News. By Jocelyn Vena Nick Jonas Photo: MTV News For a guy who had his own show, has starred in hit Disney movies and made one funny cameo on “Mr. Sunshine” on Wednesday night, it’s hard to believe that Nick Jonas doesn’t think of himself as an actor. “I think with anything, it helps to have a couple of experiences under your belt before you go and do something like a cameo or something like that,” he told MTV News of his “JONAS” and “Camp Rock” experiences. “We were able to do a couple seasons of the TV show for Disney Channel and then two movies for them as well, so I’ve done some acting. But I would never really consider myself an actor. “However, I do really enjoy it,” the 18-year-old continued. “And when the right roles come up and when it’s something I feel like I can contribute to in some way, I like doing it.” As much as he’s unsure of his skills, he does have a bigger r

Maggie Q, the star of the CW’ s breakout action-drama Nikita , knows what she wants, and she’s happy to announce that she gets it. The 31-year-old martial arts cinema vet moved from Honololu, learned her craft from Jackie Chan, became a star in Hong Kong, and co-starred in various TV shows, miniseries, and films before hitting stateside fame with Mission: Impossible III , Deception , and Balls of Fury . Now, with 14 years of fight choreography under her belt, the Nikita topliner is torqued for the future of her series — especially because she has a specific vision of what the show should look, sound, and move like. It’s a vision she reiterates frequently.

The Bounty Hunter star, 41, said “I have a project in development I’m going to direct. After you get enough movies under your belt you sit back and go, ‘What’s next? It’s getting to a time where creatively I want to turn in a different direction.” The project will not be the first time that Aniston has got behind the cameras – she co-directed a short film, Room 10 , in 2006.
