Rihanna has caused a stir on social media by superimposing Queen Elizabeth’s face onto her body.
The ‘Work’ hitmaker has edited existing photographs of her by replacing her face with the 91-year-old monarch’s in a string of images, which have been shared on her Instagram account, and it is believed the sudden uploads were to celebrate the royal’s birthday on Friday (21.04.17), although the Barbados-born singer has yet to reveal the reason behind her action.
One image of the Queen edited so it appears she is wearing a bright green ensemble, with matching knee-high boots, read: "be humble. (sic)."
Whilst another photoshopped image shows the Queen sporting a red fur heart Yves Saint Laurent jacket with denim shorts, black high heels, sunglasses, and a red hat.
The post was captioned with lyrics from Mariah Carey’s ‘It’s Like That’ song: "y’all chickens is ash and I’m lotion. (sic)."
The third image has been altered to impose the Queen’s face onto Rihanna’s body to make it appear she is wearing a crystal-encrusted Gucci ensemble, which the 29-year-old singer recently wore to the first weekend of Coachella Valley Music and Arts festival over the Easter weekend and is believed to have cost almost $10,000.
The brunette beauty wrote: "#gucci UPDATE: Mumz said she won’t too happy bout this post so I had to edit *insert appropriate Gucci Mane lyrics here* (sic)."
And Rihanna’s final post is of the Queen’s face edited onto the vocalist’s Paper magazine photoshoot, which sees the royal appear to go topless wearing only a pink two-piece skirt and blazer co-ord, whilst Rihanna’s signature tattoos are on show.
The last upload read: "it’s not that deep.(sic)."
Although some social media users find the comedy in the four uploads others have been quick to defend the royal.
One user wrote: "I’m not English or a Brit, but I find these series of photos disturbing. It’s like doing it with photos of my grandmother. These lack taste whatsoever. (sic)."
