Farmer to name grain' after Rihanna

3rd October 2011

(Cover) - EN Showbiz - The farmer who asked Rihanna to leave his farm is considering naming a grain after her.

Rihanna was filming a music promo for her single We Found Love at Alan Graham's farm in Northern Ireland last week. The deeply religious farmer was offended by Rihanna's revealing clothes and asked her to leave.

Rihanna's fans have since approached Alan with a slew of interesting requests. They have even asked the farmer to sell them ears of corn that the singer touched while she was filming.

"I don't think I'll be [selling ears of corn], but maybe I'll name a type of grain after her," Alan explained to British newspaper The Sun.

All of the fan mail has kept Alan from his work. He would like to get back to his routine.

"To be honest, all this fuss has kept me back a bit. I've got straw to harvest that I haven't been able to finish yet," Alan said.

"I'm taking it all in my stride, it'll soon die down."

Although there has been much talk about the incident, Alan insists that he harbours no ill feelings towards the singer. He believes the singer is charming and would love to invite her back to his farm in the future on one condition.

"I'd love to have [Rihanna] back. She was lovely and gracious when I spoke to her," he revealed. "Just as long as I know what she's wearing before the visit."
