Rihanna confesses on Twitter to topless snaps

Pop superstar Rihanna has admitted that the topless pictures released of her are genuine.

The saucy pictures show the What's My Name singer posing in a bathroom mirror with little more than a pair of black knickers.

When asked by a fan on Twitter if the sex text photos were real, the S&M singer tweeted: "That would be ME."

It was originally thought that the pictures, of a blonde Rihanna, were sent to an ex-boyfriend of the 22-year-old Barbadian star, but recent claims from an American socialite have kept her fans guessing.

Natasha 'Tajah' Burton recently claimed that she had a steamy lesbian fling with a well known female singer, but she has since refused to name the star.

When asked about the mystery woman she said: "I would say she's bisexual.

"It was really exciting.

"It was unexpected and it was very fun.

"She inspired me and we helped uplift each other."

Yesterday, socialite 'Tajah', then posted semi naked pictures of herself online, mimicking the same poses and wearing a similar pair of knickers to that of Rihanna.

Rihanna has openly said in the past that she has a crush on both Cheryl Cole and Katy Perry.

In 2009 the Rudeboy singer again had provocative text pictures leaked onto the net, which she defended by saying: "If you don't send your boyfriend naked pictures, then I feel bad for him."
