Rihanna has had her fair share of time in the spotlight of controversy recently. First there were rumors that she and Chris Brown were back together, and then photos of the two at a basketball game on Christmas day pretty much confirmed them. But now there’s a scandal that has most people jumping to defend RiRi; a paparazzo shot photos of her changing bikinis while in Barbados earlier this week. Click here to check out one of the (somewhat) less revealing but still NSFW shots and to let us know what you think of the controversy!
The photographer also managed to snap a photo of Rihanna’s upper half, which you can check out over at the source. Some people are saying that this incident is Rihanna’s fault, and that since she’s a celebrity, she should know better than to be naked in front of a window. Others, however, note the graininess of the shots, which were probably taken from a distance. They say that even a superstar like Rihanna is entitled to privacy on vacation, and that these shots are appalling. Either way, I’m sure RiRi will bounce easily back from this like she has with past scandals!
What do you think of these photos? Are they the photographer’s fault, Rihanna‘s or both?

She is entitled to privacy. If we can dehumanize a celebrity; then we can dehumanize anyone.

Celebrities should know better than to change in front of open windows. It’s fucked-up that the paparazzi take these pictures, but it shouldn’t be unexpected anymore — especially after the whole Kate Middleton thing, these celebrities getting naked in windows should automatically assume some asshole at an incredible distance is taking pictures with a high-powered lens.
And in a perfect world, you could say, “But they were on vacation in a secluded place, they shouldn’t have to worry!” Also in that perfect world, I should be able to walk through the park without worrying about dog shit. But the paparazzi exists, and dog shit exists. In life, be prepared for dog shit.

Hey, she looks great! Not a damn thing to be ashamed of in those photos
Wish I looked half as good naked as she does in these.

Everyone has a basic right to privacy but undressing in an open window where everyone can see invites the world in. Privacy is more than just whining about the press. I see people all the time with windows & doors wide open then bitch when they’re robbed or someone takes pictures. I’m not saying to be a shut in but use your head….

looking good!

Bitch needs to eat more hamburgers. Then I’d find that attractive.

Well! In Maori culture (I live in Aotearoa) the lower photo is a classic display of contempt. Maybe she had a message for the photographer.

Don’t get naked in front of an open window then.

Sure everyone is entitled to privacy…. But an open window isn’t exactly private lol. If I got changed infront of a window and someone saw, the only person I can blame would be myself.

@GaijinWords@xanga - Uh, … I think mooning is a pretty universal display of contempt. Not just the Maori
Love New Zealand tho,…. just gotta say that!

@Benjamin888@xanga - Yes, she needs to stuff her mouth with greasy shit food and clog her arteries. That’s hot.
She looks fine. More than fine, really.

@blackspiders@xanga - Meats not shit food if you kill the animal yourself and sterilize it like hunter gatherers of old but you wouldn’t know that would you? You live in a country where there’s too many different food markets available to the public so you have the privilege to make that stupid fucking comment.

There are far too many concerns about celebrities. Who cares? Simply put. There are bigger problems in the world.

i don’t think you should be changing in a window if you’re looking for privacy. and she’s looking directly at the camera in that first picture. as if she knows they’re there.

These photos are suspect to me, it’s as if she’s trying to make a statement
