Indecent Exposure

While Kanye West's new video is a certified Fl@unt hit, Rihanna's barely-there ensemble is a failure. Yes, she looks gorgeous in the video, but is the over-exposure really necessary?


The girl can sing, dance, model and rock most outfits so why such a desperate attempt to stand out? Sigh. Not the right move we think. Can we call this top an object of fashion? Or just a lame case of exhibitionism? A question of dignity certainly needs to be considered here.

Of course, Rihanna is not the first music artist to perform indecent exposure all in the manner of publicity and as sex and controversy sells, she certainly won't be the last. Here's examples of other fl@unting stars -





LADY GAGA
She actually crowd-surfed in this basically non-existent outfit back in 2009. This look doesn't stand for any artistic value that we can think of.













CHRISTINA AGUILERA
Aaah the Dirrty/Stripped/Leather-Chapped/Perma-Tanned days of a younger - obviously clueless Christina...I'm sure she looks upon this particular outfit so fondly.

















LIL KIM
She might have turned down the cleavage-baring, but back in her heyday of the late 90s/early 00s there was no stopping this Brooklyn native from baring AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE.
