She's carved out a raunchy image for herself over the last few years, with an almost endless array of revealing outfits both on and off stage.
So it's hardly a shock to see Rihanna visiting a sex shop in Paris - what is surprising though, is that she made her visit so blatantly.
Whereas most celebrities would try to make their visit as discreet as possible, under the cover of darkness or sneaking in with the aid of a disguise, Rihanna was happy to waltz into the store in broad daylight in front of her fans and waiting photographers.

She then casually walked with her entourage, shopping around and sifting through variety of vibrators.
Eventually settling on one, which she took the till and purchased for herself.

And, while she shopped away inside, a crowd had gathered outside, waiting for her to emerge.
Prior to the sex shop visit, Rihanna had visited the Louis Vuitton boutique and dined at Italian restaurant Findi.
Could it be that the Rude Boy singer is missing her new beau Matt Kemp, the baseball she has been dating since January?
She recently admitted that she is trying to persuade him to be by her side when she hits the UK for her Last Girl On Earth Tour this week.

Rihanna said: 'It would be so cool if he could make it here but he’s been working a lot.
'And I’m touring and shooting videos for my next single so if he doesn’t make it, it’s going to be seven weeks before I see him again.
'It’ll probably be when I get back to America that we can hook up properly.
'We have to make do with Skype and phone but I miss him. I can’t wait to see him again.'
Last week she was pictured filming the video to her highly anticipated new release, 'Te amo'.

The video features French model Laetitia Casta and was filmed earlier at a castle in nearby French town Vigny.
Initially, the singer appeared in an uncharacteristically long floral maxi-dress, looking every inch the romantic heroine.
But, as expected from Rihanna, the video soon heated up when she changed into a racy black basque for another sequence.

If Rihanna goes to the grocery story she's followed. If she goes to a Pharmacy, she's followed! If she picks her nose the paparazzi are there and report it! So what if she's going in to a sex shop?! If it wasn't for the paparazzi photographing her 24/7 in Paris while she's on tour, we would never have known she went into a sex shop! But so what!?
Rihanna is a young woman who's living her dream and having a fabulous time doing so! For those who are offended - you didn't have to read this story! U could've just read the headline and moved on! You didn't have to leave a comments! There's absolutely nothing wrong with visiting a sex shop! if Rihanna was doing something illegal, then fine! But I haven't heard of a law in Europe that make sex shops illegal!

Oh c'mon! I highly doubt she visited the sex shop with the intention of being secretly shot by the paparrazi. So, the woman visits a sex shop - so what?
