Dumb it down

There's been a fair bit of talk in the paper today that the sultry songstress Rihanna has been using a butt double, who's Irish would you believe? But is it true?

Is it true that the sexy Caribbean babe Rihanna is using a butt double?

Well according to the ever-relia… ah who are we kidding, the news came from this morning’s Irish Sun, so whether it’s 100 per cent true or not is a different story. But it’s an interesting one nonetheless.

Who’s this Irish model then?

According to reports, the Irish model in question is 27-year-old Jananassa Aicken, pictured below. We think it’s safe to say she’s an absolute stunner.

Future Woman of the Day, perhaps?

So what exactly did the Sun say?

Well according to the paper, Rihanna may have used the services of an Irish butt double for a new commercial. Apparently, Ri-Ri and her people noticed the Irish model while filming in Northern Ireland last year for the music video ‘We Found Love’.

In the new commercial for Armani Jeans - which you can watch here by the way – a gorgeous full figured model is seen bending over a phone of some sort, and then somehow a slightly less rounded Rihanna appears. The paper then quotes a source at the Style Academy in Belfast (where the model Jananassa is signed to) as saying: “Jahnassa’s torso, body and bum appear in parts of the ad.”

So what has Rihanna been saying?

Well, Rihanna is pretty p*ssed. She took to the Twittersphere yesterday to say the following directly to the Sun Newspaper:

Seems a bit harsh, does it not?

Well according to the Irish Independent, Rihanna’s management apparently made Jananassa sign an order banning her from speaking about the use of a body double. So you can see why they’re annoyed that their dirty little secret got out.

What’s the latest on the matter?

Reports are suggesting that Ri-Ri did actually use a body double and that her jab at the Sun was just retaliation at them catching her red handed. She’s even been to Twitter to say the following:

We don’t know if that tweet is directly in relation to the butt double or because she didn’t bother changing the channel when Nationwide came on. Either way, we’ve just found a new Irish stunner to ponder over.
