RIHANNA - naked on billboards and almost naked on the street.
Fresh from stamping on claims she used a body double for a steamy ad for Armani, the singer stepped out onto the streets of Manhattan in her most risqué outfit yet.

She tweeted a picture of the outfit before heading out and giving New Yorkers, and the paparazzi, a better view of her body.

Her pink lace bandeau bra was complimented by a pink pleat skirt, sunglasses and a pair of Cons, but those accessories didn't draw attention away from the fact she had mistaken a see-through bandage for a top.


Her choice of outfit was all the more strange given that Times Square has been taken over by giant naked Rihannas. The 24-year-old singer appears nude on billboards for her perfume range Rebelle.

It may be Rihanna's attempt to convince the world that the only person stripping off in her Armani ad is her.

Although she took time to slam reports she had used a body double, she has kept quiet on other damaging tabloid claims: that her manager has ordered her to go to rehab, that she's been out partying with her abusive ex and that she's suffering Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

According to Closer magazine, Jay-Z, is worried about her "excessive" partying. "Rihanna has been out of control for months," a source told the magazine.

"She was supposed to catch a flight back to the UK last week, but she ended up missing it, which was the final straw for management.

"Jay-Z hit the roof when he found out, and told Rihanna, 'Go to rehab now or I'll drop you from the label.' She's not happy, but she now feels she has no choice."

The Sun newspaper reported that Rihanna and Chris Brown partied at the same nightclub at the weekend.

Although the former couple sat at different tables, Witnesses said Brown sent Rihanna two bottles of Ace of Spades Champagne.

"After Chris made his way into SL with a group of friends, Rihanna pulled up with her own group of friends. They sat far enough from each other to not be able to talk, but close enough to keep an eye on one another."

Look magazine claimed the singer is suffering from Narcisstic Personality Disorder and that she had "reached breaking point".

A friend told the magazine: "Ri says she's physically and mentally exhausted and feeling lost. I think she desperately needs help and some time off - not just from work but from all the other stresses in her life too."
