Video: Rihanna- Man Down

Rihanna premiered the highly anticipated video for Man Down. The video was shot on the beautiful island of Jamaica and it sends a strong message. The powerful reggae-tinged video tells a compelling story of a sexually abused woman. In the opening sequence, a long-haired Rihanna is seen shooting a man, Pulse model Oraine Barrett, before flashing back to the prior morning to explain what triggered the deadly series of events.


Little Miss Sunshine rides her bike through the parish of Portland, hanging with the boys in her neighborhood before journeying to a nightclub where she meets a man. After dancing together, he forces himself upon her, she resists in advance, but he doesn't back down, leaving her in tears.

But it was Rihanna who gets the final say, taking matters into her own hands and putting an end to her abuser's life.
