Rihanna by Mario Sorrenti for Lui Magazine

Rihanna isn’t skipping a beat after her feature in Vogue Brazil‘s 39th anniversary issue; now the Barbadian beauty chose to shake hands with French magazine Lui, which boasts a longstanding track record of semi-nude models. Shot by Mario Sorrenti who has coincidentally worked with Vogue in the past as well as names including Harper’s BAZAAR, the shoot stays on par with the singer’s approach; styled in braids and a bucket hat on the cover. While Sorrenti and Rihanna chose to forgo a subtle approach, Rih Rih can be seen laying out in a number of provocative poses, giving viewers a candid view of the Caribbean queen’s more intimate tattoos.
