She's Back:Rihanna smoulders on the beach as she becomes the official Face Of Barbados Read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2186387/Rihanna-smoulders-beach-official-face-Barbados.html#ixzz239g8U54O

As it's most famous daughter, Rihanna has done much to raise the profile of her sunny Caribbean home. And now the singer has been given an official role, shooting a campaign as the Face Of Barbados. The 24-year-old was photographed shooting her first campaign for the three-year role on an idyllic beach today.

Dressed in a billowing yellow gown, Rihanna struck a sultry pose for the camera. Her new role will go some way to cheering up the singer, after she was dropped as the face of Nivea this week for being 'too sexy'. Her 'sexiness' obviously isn't a problem for her home country. 'Rihanna has signed a three-year contract with the Barbados Tourist Authority (BTA) to promote the island,' the Barbados Free Press reported.
