Rihanna gets high and hopeless in 'We Found Love' video

Rihanna is at is again, leaving our jaws on the floor with her new video for “We Found Love,” the first single from her upcoming album Talk that Talk.

Last month the world watched as the 23-year-old pop princess made headlines while filming portions of the video topless in a wheat field in Ireland.

With “We Found Love” Rihanna sizzles as she shows us that love is not always a beautiful thing.

The video opens with Rihanna talking in a cockney British accent saying, “I saw you screaming when no one can hear. You always feel ashamed that someone could be that important that without them, you feel like nothing. No one will ever understand how much it hurts. You feel hopeless, like nothing can save you. Then when it’s over, it’s gone, you almost wish you could have all that bad stuff back, so that you can have the good.”

In the span of a little more than 4 minutes we see her enjoying romance with British model Dudley O’Shaughnessy, who happens to be a Chris Brown look-a-like. The storyline quickly takes a turn and shows the couple drinking, having sex, doing a slew of drugs and ultimately fighting while in a car together.

If Rihanna is going for shock factor, she hit the ball over the fence with her new video.
