Last week, we were warned that Rihanna’s comeback would be “edgier” than anything we expected. But after these snaps dropped on the new desk, we understood. The ultimate Good Girl Gone Bad is back and she’s set to be fiercer - and raunchier - than ever before. Wearing nothing but a corset and wrapped in barbed-wire, the Umbrella singer looks pretty hot in the shots for her brand new album, Rated R, and has just finished shooting the video for her comeback single Russian Roulette – in which she dons a sexy pirate ensemble, complete with suspenders and an eye-patch.

October 10, 2009 Rihanna is currently in Berlin and has been doing a photo shoot which reportedly is done for her new album. Working with German photographer Ellen Von Unwerth, she is seen wearing high-shoulder coat on top of flesh-toned swimsuit. Several crew on the set are shown trying to cover the photo shoot by holding black curtain around Rihanna but they fail. No official release date and working title have been shared for the album, but rumor suggests it will come out before the end of this year with one of its new singles to arrive next week. On what to expect from the record, Ne-Yo recently told E! Online, "Expect an edgier, almost angrier Rihanna on this one. Rihanna says some things on this album that you've never heard her say before."

She joined Twitter and made her first Tweet announcing her new album. With a quick note saying 'The wait is over, November 23, 2009', Rihanna told us the date of the album's release. Remember that this new CD, though we still don't know its name, was produced by Justin Timberlake. A few weeks ago we wondered if there was something going on between Rihanna and Justin, but that was all a rumor. Rihanna called Jessica Biel, Justin's girlfriend, and told her that there was nothing between them besides friendship. Rihanna doesn't not want to be labeled as a boyfriend-stealer and anyway, she knows what it is like to be cheated on. She doesn't want another woman to have to go through the same thing.

Is Rihanna trying to break the world record for wearing not only a staggering amount of outfits in one week, but also for how provocative they can be? The designer clad super-star is giving every fashionista a run for their money by sporting some seriously fierce (and raunchy) looks while in the French capital for Fashion Week. In the last week alone, Rihanna has sported an oversized Vivenne Westwood blazer that just covered her underwear with over-the-knee tan boots, a criss-cross jacket revealing a satin bra with tight leather trousers and now this Hussein Chalayan dress with black patent thigh-high boots and suspenders. The R&B singer has changed her look, and even her make-up, several times a day depending on which shows she attended, including Givenchy, Jean Paul Gautier and Maison Martin Margiela to name but a few.

October 10, 2009 LAST week fashionistas from around the globe gathered in France for Rihanna Fashion Week . Actually, it was Paris Fashion Week , but the highlight of the new season shows might as well have been renamed for the sexy singer who has undergone an extreme style makeover. Front row among the creme de la creme of the fashion world, Rihanna made sure all eyes and cameras were focused firmly on her. Taking cues direct from this year's catwalks, she rocked couture from the likes of Givenchy, Balmain, Stella McCartney and Vivienne Westwood. It's a new Rihanna for a new season and her new-found confidence seems to be about sexing up her previously sweet girl-next-door look.

THE spangliest event in the fashion calendar usually turns out to be Milan Fashion Week. However, this year Paris Fashion Week has massively wazzed on its bonfire. Fashion royalty swarmed to the French capital with pop legend Prince leading the way. The savvy funk machine, 51, turned up to the Chanel Prêt à Porter show branding a silver cane and some killer sunglasses. Rihanna , 21, got the award for the Strongest Neck after donning the world’s chunkiest necklace. Meanwhile Kate Moss, 35, arrived dressed head-to-toe in black and cheerfully exhibited her babylons while her fella Jamie Hince, 40, looked dapper in a navy suit. The scruffy rocker fitted right in among fashion’s biggest cheeses. But Kate’s funbags get the prize for Best Standout Performance as her fashionable fried eggs are fast becoming VIPs in their own right.

London, October 02 (ANI): Rihanna recently grabbed eyeballs when she appeared at Paris Fashion Week wearing a see-through dress with no underwear. The pop star wore the dress to Gareth Pugh’s catwalk show taking place in a darkened hall at the Palais de Tokyo museum. However, when she was leaving the event photographers’ flashes revealed the lack of inner wear, the Mirror reports. Just a few tactically placed stripes helped preserve her modesty. (ANI)
