Rihanna

From her brutal ex-boyfriend (read: Chris Brown's alleged domestic abuse against her) to the kind of videos that would put pornstars and maybe even Madonna's theatrical antics to shame, today's Rihanna is a far cry from the once-sweet, innocent Barbadian girl who simply wanted to be a popstar. 

Whether or not she always intended it to go this way, one thing is clear, she's embraced her 'bad girl' image and is going out of her way to defend and endorse her behaviour. She's always in the news for her countless inflammatory scandals.
