Move over, models! Rihanna thrills in powder pink playsuit as she rivals Angels ahead of Victoria's Secret show
|
She's performing at the Victoria's Secret fashion show on Wednesday, and Rihanna is giving the catwalk models a run for their money.
The pop star, 24, could easily have been mistaken for one of the famed Angels once she was dolled up in her costume for the occasion.
Rihanna was snapped for a Twitter picture by photographer Russell James while backstage before her performance.

She can be seen opening her powder pink gown to reveal a matching playsuit underneath, which hugs her slender frame while displaying her ample cleavage.
The singer also wears hoop earrings, sunglasses and her trademark red lipstick in the shot, as she puts on her best pout for the camera.
She certainly seemed raring to go and even appeared to be getting into the spirit of things earlier in the day when she was spotted leaving her hotel en route to the New York venue wearing a rather racy ensemble.

Rihanna looked ready to battle it out for attention in a army fatigue long jacket and boots which came right up to her inner thigh.
She finished off the look with black hotpants, a Trapstar jumper and a back-to-front cap.
The Umbrella singer later braved the bad weather as she moved between her trailer and the Lexington Armory.
