Rihanna sent temperatures rising when she performed at the BRIT Awards last night.
The singer, who was battling bronchitis and laryngitis, performed a three-song melody of 'The Only Girl (In The World)', 'What's My Name' and 'S&M'.
She emerged on stage wearing a red silk dress with a hood, which she then ripped off to reveal a lacy black bodice and knickers
It had been previously reported that the singer may not appear at the awards after she was asked by BRIT bosses to tone down the sexual lyrics in single 'S&M'.
After picking up the award for Best International Female Rihanna said: "This is so exciting. This means a lot. It doesn't get much better than the Brits. Wow."
James Corden hosted the ceremony.
