Rihanna takes part in yet another watery photo shoot in white bikini

While most people see the beach as somewhere to soak up the sun, play beach games or have a dip, it seems Rihanna has other priorities when she visits a sandy shore.

The Bajan singer donned a white bikini on Wednesday to take part in yet another photo shoot while on a break in Barbados from her Diamonds World Tour.
Splashing around in the crisp, blue water, Rihanna certainly has enough bikini-clad photos to last a lifetime.

The We Found Love singer wore a pair of black RayBan Wayfarers with a flash of red lipstick and styled her shoulder-length black mane into a messy side parting.
She may well have been wearing a lipstick from her VivaGlam MAC collection, which she tweeted about on Tuesday: 'We really worked to make this one of a kind for VivaGlam, right down to the packaging, which has never been done! So shoutout to @MACcosmetics and #ViViaGlam for going all the way with this!! (sic)'.

Rihanna took charge of a jetski and sped across the tropical waters wearing a life vest to keep her safe, but then she got on an inflatable to relax with her mates.

In the water she enjoyed a bottle of beer while her posse enjoyed a few cocktails.

And she is ready to return to Barbados for good after her tour, as she has splashed out $22million on a beachside home on the Caribbean island - after renting the same property last year.
Rihanna bought a home at the luxurious One Sandy Lane resort on the island where she was born and raised.
The superstar always returns to her native Barbados for Christmas and last year MailOnline revealed she rented the same five-bed condo and planned on her mother Monica Braithwaite and younger brother Rajad joining her.

She added the first few months have been particularity 'tough' forcing her to cancel work and social plans.
She wrote: 'Please read cute post by future daddy and share our big news.
'This will explain to many of my friends and colleagues why I have been cancelling on them so often recently.

Vickers is in her knickers: Diana wears lacy pants and tight T-shirt as she smoulders in sexy FHM shoot

She rose to fame as the bare-footed, husky-voiced teenager on the X Factor.
But five years on, the 22-year-old has transformed into a sexy pop star, even posing in just her knickers for December's front cover of FHM.

Dressed in nothing but a pair of blue knickers and a pink crop T-shirt emblazoned with the words 'lost my mind,' she stands holding a paintbrush and pot of paint as she mock paints the glossy mag's cover orange.

In other photographs, the Blackburnian posed seductively on a bed whilst reading a copy of The Motorcycle Diariers.
And in another shot lay on her stomach, kicking up her feet, which were covered in a pair of pink fluffy socks and brown leather strappy sandals.
She left out her silky blonde locks in a middle parting and wore minimal make-up, with just a touch of smokey eyeshadow and lip tint, which exposed her flawless complexion.

Lost My Mind: Diana poses for a series of sexy shots for the December edition of FHM

Diana, who was also interviewed by the magazine, said: 'Before the shoot, I was really scared about taking my clothes off in front of everyone, but I got into it, and it was really good fun.
'I’ve been brought up with FHM so it’s a real honour to be asked to be on the cover!

She added: 'I don’t see myself as a sex symbol at all, but I know it’s part of my job to be kind of sexy. I just don’t really think of myself like that.'

Enjoyable experience: Diana said she was initially nervous about taking off her clothes but enjoyed it in the end

Diana Vickers might have lost her mind, but she hasn't lost us as fans in the style stakes. She definitely loves a good slogan - if it isn't her Brian Lichtenberg Homies T-shirt she's rocking, it's a Filles A Papa bikini.

The singer also recalled her time as a barefoot X Factor contestant in 2008, saying: 'I was 16 – I didn’t know who I was. I wasn’t an artist, I didn’t write my own music, I didn’t know what I wanted to be.
'Now I’m 22 and I know the sort of artist I want to be. And when I perform, I wear shoes!'

She added: 'I think maybe (the show) should go away for a few years and come back again fresh. When you see something too much it’s good to step away from it and then come back to it. It makes you appreciate it a bit more.'

Showing off her bod: In August, Diana was seen partying at the Ocean Club in Ibiza dressed in a skimpy Tomboy bikini

The singer-songwriter and actress is preparing for her role in a West End production at the same time as promoting her second album, Music to Make Boys Cry.
'It is a great opportunity to go to the West End again and my acting means the world to me. It was really annoying because my album has come out at the same time as the show. I am probably my record company’s worst nightmare,' Diana told the Lancashire Telegraph, and who is playing the role of Holly, in political comedy The Duck House, which is due to open on December 10.

Fashion-forward: Diana has been known to be an experimental dresser, often trying out unusual prints (left) or quirky accessories (right)

'I am loving everything that is happening around me at the moment and there’s always lots of exciting opportunities. Releasing an album and not being on tour has been quite random. I am sure everyone thinks I should be on tour.'
It will be the second time that Diana has appeared in London’s West End stage following her lead role in The Rise and Fall of Little Voice in 2009

'I think porn can be enjoyed... it can be productive for both men and women': Don Jon star Scarlett Johansson weighs in as she poses for boudoir chic shoot

's a debate which has raged for several decades, and shows no sign of stopping anytime soon.
But now Scarlett Johansson has revealed what side she's on in the 'to watch or not to watch' porn battle, admitting she's firmly for enjoying some adult content with a partner.
Scarlett made the admission as she posed for a stunning new shoot in Britain's Marie Claire magazine.

The 28-year-old actress, who is engaged to Romain Dauriac, said: 'I think porn, like anything else, can be enjoyed. It can be productive for both men and women.'
However, Scarlett did acknowledge that there should be a limit to how much it's watched.
Referring to the lead character Jon in her new movie Don Jon, Scarlett said: 'If I found out my boyfriend watched that much porn I would be totally flabbergasted, for sure.'
Her character could give Snooki and JWoww a run for their money as romantic comedy loving New Jersey girl with a penchant for tight clothing and the hopes of moulding a man to become her perfect partner.

In between her various film roles, Scarlett also found time to shoot a Dolce & Gabbana advert alongside Matthew McConaughey - directed by Martin Scorsese.
And speaking about working with such a legendary director, Scarlett said: 'I had these moments where I'd be on set and and I'd hear him call across the street [here she shifts into an excellent imitation of Scorsese's charmingly halting conversational style], "Scarlett, can you do another one that's a little more intimate?" I was like, "Holy s**t. It's Martin Scorsese!" '
