Rihanna has gone nude for the cover of the US GQ magazine.

The singer is donning the front of the magazine's December issue and she has gone for a striking naked look.

She is seen with nothing on apart from a black leather jacket, which is draped over her shoulders, whilst her right arm covers up her female modesty.

In the accompanying interview, Rihanna reveals that she likes to men to be dominant in a relationship, admitting:

But I think everybody still has their limits."
