Rihanna recently revisited her “Disturbia” moments and rubbed dirt all over her naked body for Esquire Magazine’s “Sexiest Woman Alive” photoshoot.

The Mag selected Rihanna for a shoot promoting the issue and many thought she the “sexiest” title in the bag, but according to MissInfo, RihRih got all grimy for absolutely nothing…

Contrary to some hasty and inaccurate headlines, Esquire did not name Rihanna as their 2011 ?Sexiest Woman Alive.? But they did use a dirty short clip of Rihanna to promote their 2011 ?Sexiest Woman Alive? voting brackets.

And by dirty?.I?m referring to actual soot which Rihanna rubs into her face and body. Perhaps an exotic volcanic exfoliation ritual. At the very end of the video there also seems to be some wet paper towel clinging to her arm. So, needless to say?the height of anti-glam.

Check out a few photos + video of Rihanna’s sexy dirty photoshoot:

So after all that rubbing and ish… Rihanna was robbed of Esquire’s “sexiest” title by Katrina Bowden (aka the intern on 30 Rock.)

Oh well…. there’s always next year.
