Cus it's her birthday, Rihanna has shared a beautiful new portrait of herself and it's tagged with the #R8 hashtag she's dedicated to her new album. Shot by Italian photographer Paolo Roversi, the photo shows her in one of her all-time favorite styles—a big puffy jacket, with nothing underneath—and with dark Frida Khalo eyebrows. And while there's been no official confirmation regarding what the photo is and where it will end up (FADER has reached out to Rihanna's team and is awaiting comment), it would be some real bad gal-style #birthdaybehavior to drop an album cover real casually on Twitter, no?
