Rihanna is taking it all off on the cover of Esquire magazine’s November 2011 issue, The 23-year-old “We Found Love” singer was named the mag’s Sexiest Woman Alive this year!

The Barbados Bombshell stripped down and opened up to the magazine about how she’s moved past ex-boyfriend Chris Brown brutally beating her in 2009.

“It’s incredible to see how he pulled out of it the way he did. Even when the world seemed like it was against him, you know?” the 23-year-old told Esquire.
“I really like the music he’s putting out. I’m a fan of his stuff. I’ve always been a fan,” she added. “Obviously, I had some resentment toward him for a while, for obvious reasons. But I’ve put that behind me.”

So how and why was the Barbados-born beauty able to move past her anger towards Brown, 22? “It was taking up too much of my time,” she explained. “It was too much anger. I’m really excited to see the breakthrough he’s had in his career. I would never wish anything horrible for him. Never. I never have.”

In Feb. 2011 — with Rihanna’s permission — an L.A. judge lifted the “S&M” singer’s restraining order against Brown. Under the new conditions, the exes can have contact, provided that Brown doesn’t harass, annoy or molest Rihanna.

Pop princess Rihanna got it touch with her raunchy sides as she took part in a traditional festival in her Native Barbados.

The singer climbed aboard a float dressed in a cut away bra top and a red bikini bottom flaunting her fabulous figure as she celebrated Kadooment Day.

The Bajan beauty recently wrapped up the North American leg of her Loud tour and will perform in Barbados later this week.

She may have one of the best-selling albums this year but it seems like Americans are not interested in seeing her perform live!!!!

Rihanna may reportedly have to axe some of her US tour dates thanks to poor ticket sales.

According to the New York Post, only 3,700 tickets have been sold for a concert in Boston with Cee Lo Green, while 15,000 sales are needed to just to break even.

Organisers are said to be so concerned that they are considering cancelling dates like they had to for her Last Girl on Earth tour in 2010.

An insider told the newspaper, ‘It has been a big disappointment. The ticket sales in big US cities like Boston are so bad they will barely cover basics like the lighting and other arena costs.

‘Tour managers are begging local radio stations to do giveaways.’

However, across the pond it is a different story with the 23-year-old Bajan singer having to add dates to her UK tour due to demand.

Reps for Rihanna and her management Roc Nation declined to comment.

Troubled singer Chris Brown had a meltdown, exploding in rage behind the scenes at “Good Morning America” yesterday … smashing a window and storming out without a shirt … … and it was triggered by on-air questions about the Rihanna incident.

Watch a video of the interview below!!!

The convicted woman beater performed and was interviewed by Robin Roberts live from the Times Square studio when she began asking about the infamous incident.

Brown tried to redirect the questions to focus on his album — but Roberts continued to ask about Brown’s legal issues stemming from the Rihanna incident.

After the awkward interview, Brown freaked out and flew into a violent rage, storming into his dressing room and screaming so loud, the people in hair and makeup became alarmed and called security.

The singer became out of control,  smashed a window in his dressing room, and the glass shattered and some shards fell onto 43rd and Broadway.

By the time security rushed the area, Brown had ripped off his shirt and left the building, blowing off another performance he was supposed to do for the ABC show.

And sources say … on his way out of the building, Brown confronted a segment producer, got in his face and stared him down.   People from the show got in between Chris and the producer to diffuse the situation.

Remember — Brown is on probation for the felony beating and he’s required to obey all laws.

UPDATE :  Brown just tweeted, “I’m so over people bringing this past s**t up!!! Yet we praise Charlie sheen and other celebs for there bulls**t.”

A leopard never changes its spots!!!
