Rihanna is finally opening up about her reported meltdown that left her on the verge of a nervous breakdown. RiRi blames her “collapse from exhaustion,” days after performing on SNL, on a grueling schedule for her latest album “Talk That Talk” in a video diary:

”One morning I woke up and started crying so hard. I finally just got to my bed from the IV [drip] and I was just like, ‘Good I can actually get to sleep tonight’ because we stayed up all night’ and I finished [the album] at 5pm the day before.”

”I get in bed and it must have been two hours in before my phone started going off. I was so frustrated I kept ignoring the phone.”

”I know I’m sick but I’m the only person who can get it done so it was so frustrating so I was angry. I was so angry, I was so overwhelmed that I was sick, it felt crazy.”

”I started crying really, really hard in my pillow. It was aggressive. I don’t cry loads. If I cry it’s because I’m very angry and I can’t do anything about it, because I’ve run into a dead end. But this time I needed to hear it, I almost wanted to punch somebody.”
