Rihanna Shocks With Short Film For #BBHMM [Video]
Someone better have Rihanna’s money.
Releasing her latest and highly anticipated video at midnight, Rihanna’s 7-minute short film has everything you’d expect from a gritty R-rated film. There’s partying, kidnapping and murder.
Rihanna teased the video at the BET Awards on June 28, but now we get to see the whole thing. [WARNING: Video includes graphic content, including language and nudity.]
The video for the song "B---- Better Have My Money," was directed by Rihanna and MegaForce. It starts off with Rihanna kidnapping a blonde, model-esque woman from an elevator. Then RiRi and friends take their hostage on a joyride that includes a party on a boat, a party in a sleazy motel, and of course, some minor torture. One of the more disturbing scenes features the woman tied upside-down and swinging in an empty warehouse. This does not look like "Fifty Shades of Grey."
SPOILER: The video ends with a surprise twist. The woman isn't who Rihanna was searching for at all. Instead Rihanna is after the blonde woman's husband -- also known as Rihanna’s accountant -- played by Mads Mikkelsen of "Hannibal" fame.
And let's just say, things don't end well for him.
The video debuted hours after it was announced that Rihanna became the first artist to top 100 million in digital sales.
While there were some rumblings from YouTube viewers about the graphic nature of the video, response on Twitter seemed overwhelmingly positive.
The video is attention-grabbing and hard to turn away from. While we're definitively fans, we're going to make sure we stay on Rihanna's good side.
