MTV has caught up with fashion make up artist Kabuki again this time for Rihanna’s latest appearance for Coldplay’s music video “princess of China”. He has worked with Rihanna before creating fierce looks for her latest music video “where have you been”, which we posted HERE.

“MTV STYLE: Last time, we chatted about working with Rihanna on her music video for “Where Have You Been”, now we’re talking about another Rihanna project, Coldplay’s “Princess of China” video which features Ri. How were things different working with Rihanna on this second video?

KABUKI: The “Princess of China” makeup was a little bit more planned because I had already worked with her on “Where Have You Been” by that point, so I kind of had an idea of what she might go for. It was also a bit more of a character because it’s a Coldplay video that she’s singing in, so I felt she had more of an opportunity of playing a part.

That’s really interesting. From where did you draw inspiration for this character Rihanna would play in “Princess of China”?

The way I got inspiration for that was I did a drawing of her face. Sometimes I don’t like using other references because you can be tempted to duplicate that reference. I tried to, rather than use references, just use my imagination, and I really like the idea of a skinny eyebrow because I thought it really took her away from being herself and plays up that character. It was also really helpful for me to show her that [skinny eyebrow] on a drawing of her own face rather than show her an example from an editorial work where it might look completely different.”
