    4. Miley Cyrus' 'We Can't Stop' was turned down by Rihanna

    RiRi could have been the one cavorting around with some oversized teddies if she had taken on 'We Can't Stop' as Mike Will originally wrote the song for her. He explained, "When I originally worked on 'We Can't Stop,' we had did it for Rihanna. The idea was more towards Rihanna. Rihanna, she heard 'Pour It Up' right away, and she didn't even hear 'We Can't Stop.'" (Pictures: YouTube/Getty)
