Washington, Jan 22 : Popstar Rihanna is desperate to follow in the footsteps of Beyonce Knowles and carve a niche for herself in Hollywood.

The `Umbrella' hitmaker, who got her first taste of acting when she made a cameo appearance in 2006 film `Bring It On: All or Nothing', is keen to make it big as a Hollywood star.

"I''d love to star in some movies, that''s my next goal. I love my music but I want to get into movies," Contactmusic quoted Rihanna, as telling OK! Magazine.

And it seems there is no stopping the popstar, as next in her wish list is accomplishing a fashion business of her own.

"I want to start some businesses of my own. I like clothes, I love make-up, so maybe I could have a hand in some of those things," Contactmusic quoted Rihanna, as saying. (ANI)
