She released the explicit clip to BBHMM online last week.

And her latest track's violent feature-film styled video has already garnered over 8 million views, causing a storm over its themes and imagery.

Rihanna co-directed the racy video with the French collective MegaForce and it also co-stars Eric Roberts, Hannibal actor Mads Mikkelsen as well as Supermodel Rachel Roberts.

During the seven minute long movie Canadian beauty Rachel is kidnapped, stripped naked and then tortured by the Umbrella singer.

And though critics have lambasted the pop star for the video, she shows no sign of slowing down her prolific singing career.
