Rihanna's photo spread in the new Italian issue of Vogue elicits mixed reactions.

Some might call this high fashion. Others might see the revealing nature of some of the pictures and be turned on. Others may be downright terrified.

Not sure how we feel about this. Sure, Rihanna topless is never a bad thing ... but no clue if is this supposed to be high fashion or a Halloween costume:

Rihanna models trendy fashion items. None of which are a top.

No doubt about it, the girl looks fierce. In the literal sense. Ferociously scary.

Chris Brown may or may not remember pummeling the crap out of her, but you are not likely to get the image of these pictures out of your head.
