Rihanna continues to be everywhere but the charts these days.

The sometimes singer and full time model features a-front of the 100th issue of Fader magazine (which hits newsstands October 27th).

We imagine, like most of her recent press spots, that this was pre-booked when there was buzz about her eighth album coming out around this time.

Clearly, that has yet to materialize, so it’s operation “retain the spotlight” for the 27-year-old; an action-plan that also includes a turn as a “key advisor” on the current season of ‘The Voice.’

At this point she seems to be releasing photoshoots to promote her next…photoshoot.

In any case, peep more from the feature below…

‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta’ are back. Well…almost.

It really is exciting stuff.
