It wasn’t even a year later that Rihanna sexily slapped us all in the face when she released her “Tainted Love” flavoured tune “SOS“. The accompanying video was full of glittery skin, flying bed hair, arched backs, gyrating posteriors, voyeuristic angles and some serious attitude. And we didn’t even have time to wonder what happened to sweet, sweet “pon de replay…please?” Rihanna, cause she was too busy smacking us around with the hottest song of 2006.

Apparently, the naughty dancing wasn’t just an act - her next single “Unfaithful” didn’t just flirt with cheating, it did the nasty and kicked it to the curb. With lines like “I know that he knows I’m unfaithful” and “I don’t wanna be a murderer”, Rihanna was suddenly an 18-year-old with skeletons in her closet - especially when she revealed in interviews that she can sing from experience.

Speaking of cheating, Rihanna’s growing popularity brought on rumours that she was having an affair with Jay-Z, which of course spawned whispers of a rivalry with Beyonce. She insists that none of the gossip is true, but neither story helps project a good girl image!

But does Rihanna even want to be seen as a good girl? Sorry, what was that? We’re too busy watching the video for “Umbrella” for the gazillionth time. In 2007, Rihanna’s third album “Good Girl Gone Bad” was kicked off with yet another super foxy clip, wherein the dancing is not only as sexy as ever, but she goes totally nude - except for some silver body paint.

So now, in 2007, Rihanna is one of the hottest performers on the scene, but is she REALLY naughty? Nah. She can act naughty, she can LOOK naughty, but when you get down to it, she’s a good girl acting bad. Compared to some other celebs, Rihanna is but a cupcake.
