Wearing a pair of see-through trousers, emblazoned with marijuana leaves and cigarette packets, Rihanna took a close-up image of herself with her hand pressed over her most intimate area.

She captioned the image, which she shared with her 37 million followers: "school. kills. [sic]"
Unsurprisingly the 'crotch grabbing' image has caused some controversy - despite the fact that her hand is placed over her underwear.
One follower wrote: "What the f**k?"
A blogger added scathingly: "At least try to not be the worst influence ever and also get your hand out of your pants sometimes."
However, as several of the stickers adorning the transparent pants read 'role model', it is worth remembering that RiRi has strong views about how she is seen by her fans.
In fact, she recently told Vogue magazine that is NOT a figure to be emulated.
She said: “See, people … they want me to be a role model just because of the life I lead.
"The things I say in my songs, they expect it of me, and [being a role model] became more of my job than I wanted it to be.
"But no, I just want to make music. That’s it.”
