Rihanna's Esquire magazine photos were too hot for us to pass up, so we're posting 'em all here for you. Earlier today Lil Payne reported that Esquire named Rihanna the sexiest woman alive in 2011. A few years ago Halle Berry won the title. Freida Pinto deserves a title too. Black and brown girls rule!

Now onto Rihanna's interview, when speaking about Chris Brown, she says "I've put that behind me. It was taking up too much of my time. It was too much anger," which is the healthy and mature thing to do. Good for her! No need to live in the past. She also claims that she "would never wish anything horrible for him."  It's called moving on.

Rihanna says that "people find different things sexy" and her sex kitten act has been manufactured by her label, which doesn't explain why she's naked in Esquire. It's the Caribbean in her. She's comfortable with being naked and grabbing her crotch on stage. Whatever works; and now I'll stop typing. Enjoy the photos.
