TMZ has learned the legal department at Island Def Jam Music Group, RiRi’s label, sent a letter to at least one website that published the photos. The letter refers to “unauthorized photos purported to be…Rihanna,” demands that the photos be removed from the site, and calls the photos a violation of “the Artist’s rights.”
It’s not clear whether Rihanna really is the woman in the buff because you can’t see her face in the nude shots. She is clearly pictured in two fully clothed pics.
As previously reported on Singersroom, nearly seven photos of Rihanna were released online late Friday. The photos not only revealed Rihanna’s pierced breast and buttocks but, a photo of a man bearing striking resemblance to Chris Brown sitting shirtless on a bed with pink panties on his head. The duos photo gallery nearly confirms a rumored sex tape and hotel room romp covered in by both Star Magazine and The Sun.
In the report, issued just a few weeks shy of Brown’s not guilty plea, sources said Rihanna was fearful of a sex tape she had made with Brown being released.
“Rihanna has no issues with her sexuality but, she’d be mortified if her friends and family found this out,” the source confirmed.
The tape, which was rumored to have been made the same night the alleged – now released- photos were taken, may be next to make its way to the net. Some even say Brown might have been the culprit who was holding the images over Rihanna’s head.
If said tape does make its way to the net, both Brown and Rihanna will take yet another blow to their images… can they survive it ? Some believe Rihanna is terrified because she’s seen how quickly Brown can turn on her…
