Bad girls Kate Moss and Rihanna in their racy V Magazine shoot (Mario Testino for V Magazine)
V Magazine’s photoshoot of Rihanna and Kate Moss engaged in S&M-esque poses has officially been released.
The racy images were leaked last November after being hacked from an insider’s computer. The photos spread like wildfire after Rihanna posted them to her Instagram account.
“I posted them because I was so excited,” she said to V Magazine and added that she deleted the photos when she realized they came from hackers. “I was so bummed because I thought they were so sick. It goes to show how badly people wanted this cover. I guess it was as big a deal to them as it was to me!”
The two bad girl fashionistas first met because of Moss’ young daughter, Lila Grace, 10. “I was a fan,” Moss said, “but what really started it was my daughter and her friends running round the house singing all the words to her songs.”
The model found herself sitting next to the “Umbrella” singer at the 2009 Met Gala and Moss asked for a picture together.
“I was, like, Are you f–king kidding me?” Rihanna recalled. “I was so starstruck. I’m not going to lie.”
Rihanna was flattered: “I didn’t know she had a child, and she still looks like this? So there’s hope for people who want babies and still want to be sexy.”
