Bajan beauty Rihanna graces the cover of August cover of Harper's Bazaar, which hits news stands on July 17, and opens up about heartbreak and her stunning figure.

The 'Where Have You Been' superstar looks stunning in a gold-coloured full bodysuit, but admits that she has slimmed down this year and wishes her curves would return:

"I don't know if there's something going on with my body right now, but I'm eating everything in life! I miss my ass. It just went away! I need a butt. I have an idea of one, but it's not living up to its full potential right now."

She also spoke about her experiences of love and referred to her troubled relationship with R&B sensation Chris Brown, explaining that she is scared fall "so hard" again:

"When I was in love, I fell so hard. I was really, really, really in love. The way it made me feel was priceless. And in a blink of an eye my whole life changed."

"Everything that I knew was different. I never thought I'd feel that pain in my life. I'm afraid of feeling that again."
