She followed in the footsteps of Megan Fox and stripped off to show her incredible figure for Armani’s recent lingerie campaign.

While the photos of Rihanna reclining in the delicate underwear were seductive and stunning in equal measure, they gave little away about the singer’s playful personality.

Now, behind-the-scenes shots of Barbadian beauty have been released and Rihanna is seen preparing for the shoot, joking with the film crew and flirting with the camera showing off a new bleached blonde crop.
