Nude by Rihanna: the singer unveils her new perfume ad on Twitter

Rihanna took to Twitter to unveil the promotional material for her new perfume Nude to her more than 26 million followers.

“Here is my new add for a brand new fragrance #NUDE !!! Make sure you smell sexy, especially naked, this fall,” tweeted Rihanna on Friday.

The ad shows the 24-year-old mega star wearing nothing but cream lace lingerie, a piece of gauze fabric draped strategically over her crotch.

Rihanna smiles seductively behind waves of platinum blonde hair – the new fragrance placed strategically beside her.

The singer’s release of the photograph comes after a week of drama which saw her spend three nights running in the company of her ex Chris Brown, whose assault on his then girlfriend in 2009 left Rihanna hospitalized.

Chris Brown on Thursday confirmed he had split from his current girlfriend, explaining he didn’t want to hurt Karrueche Tran as a result of his “friendship” with Rihanna.

He then released a video in which he asks: “IS it possible to love two people?”

Meanwhile Rihanna made a veiled reference to Chris Brown as she wrote on her Twitter: “Ain’t nobody bidness….. But mine and my baby!”

And friends of the pair are said to be concerned about their potential reconciliation.

A source told RadarOnline.com: “Chris and Rihanna just love the drama. They know their fans don’t support them getting back together, and that it’s a terrible PR move since Chris was convicted of beating Rihanna.

“However, this is what Chris and Rihanna thrive on. There are still major trust issues that Rihanna has with Chris, with good reason, he was hooking up with her while he was still dating Karrueche. Chris and Rihanna back together in any capacity is just a disaster in the making.”

Chris Brown was yesterday seen jetting out of New York to Los Angeles following three consecutive nights of partying with Rihanna.
