Rihanna's new single, FourFiveSeconds, has been out for less than a week, but the singer has already released a teaser for the song's video.
And tease she does alongside her collaborators - Kanye West, 37, and Paul McCartney, 72 - in the short video released online on Friday.
The two-minute clip includes scenes of Rihanna pulling her denim jacket off her bare shoulder to showcase more of her cleavage.

Sneak peek: Rihanna released a making-of preview for her FourFiveSeconds video, co-starring Paul McCartney and Kanye West
Rihanna is seen with slicked back hair and giving the camera a sultry look as she does her mini-striptease.
Since it was released on Saturday, FourFiveSeconds has been downloaded 53,000 times and entered the Billboard Hot 100 chart at number 54.
The song was originally released without any video accompaniment, so the new making-of footage is the first seen for any music off of Rihanna's upcoming album.
'This is the first song that my fans are going to hear from the new album and the first visual they see,' Rihanna explained near the beginning of the video.
Visual: Rihanna showed off some skin while the camera captured her sultry look
Collaboration: While Rihanna was clearly the star, both Kanye and Paul contributed to the music and the video
Music: Paul both sang and played guitar for his part of the video
Fashion: Denim was a major feature throughout the video, a contribution suggested by Kanye
Visuals included show the directors, Inez & Vinoodh, hard at work with Rihanna, Kanye, and Paul.
There is also a close look at the fashion sense for the piece, apparently inspired by Kanye and his love of denim.
'Denim never goes out of style: It's classic, it's iconic - just like The f**king Beatles!' said Rihanna.
Behind-the-scenes: In addition to clips from the music video itself, snapshots of production appeared
Costuming: Although much of it did not seem to appear in the finished project, Rihanna and the others had a great deal of fashion from which to choose
"Gentle Love seeks out sweet song..."
