Christian Farmer catches Rihanna topless on his land, and orders her to leave.

What are you looking at? Rihanna's appearance was a far cry from that of your average farm hand with her denim crop top and scarlet lips



Rihanna's position as one of the world's top pin ups had little effect on one man, a farmer who ordered her off his land after discovering her topless during a video shoot.

In fact, Alan Graham, 61, was so impervious to her sensual allure that he not only sent the superstar singer packing but he also warned that she should 'find a greater God'. The 23-year-old singer was forced to beat a hasty retreat from Mr Graham’s muddy field in Northern Ireland after he interrupted the filming and told her to cover up.
