Over the years, Rihanna‘s vocals have mauled many an eardrum. As such, it’s fitting that the Puma model poses in the mouth of a shark in her latest shoot for Harper’s Bazaar.

With new single ‘FourFiveSeconds’ struggling to make the waves of previous releases, the diva has launched an all-out media assault in hopes of pushing the track higher on the charts.

Beyond this feature, the trail will see her sail onto the Grammy Awards stage on Sunday, when she takes to the stage to perform ‘Old McDonald Had A Farm’ ‘FourFive’ alongside Kanye West and Paul McCartney.

Pending then, peep more of the shoot – lensed by Norman Jean Roy – below…

Check out Rihanna a-front of Harper’s Bazaar!

The Bajan sensation serves all sorts of stunning in the March issue of the publication, which is set to hit newsstands later next week.

With a Grammy performance set for this Sunday and a long list of additional promo stops ahead, Ms. Fenty will no doubt be hoping her efforts help struggling single ‘FourFiveSeconds’.

Billed as the 26-year-old’s big comeback, the Kanye West and Paul McCartney assisted cut is only performing moderately well. Indeed, though jumping to #15 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week (up 39 spots), radio spins are slowing and the song has yet to hit the top iTunes two weeks after release. Unheard of for a single of its supposed magnitude.
