Rihanna is facing criticism from some fans who claim she's lost her sex appeal, but she's completely unfazed, enjoying a vibrant love life and refusing to bow to any body pressure.

"Rihanna has never felt more empowered or sexier, so she finds it pretty laughable and pathetic that people are trying to body shame her and pretend to know how she feels," an insider exclusively tells Life & Style. "She used to hate being stick thin with no boobs, so she's thrilled that her body has developed and she's got a bigger booty, thicker thighs and D-cups."

And it's not just Rihanna, 36, who appreciates her new physique.

The insider adds, "And her sex life with [A$AP] Rocky could not be better, he can't keep his hands off her curves and she loves it."

Fans have observed that the "Love the Way You Lie" singer has been opting for looser clothing lately rather than tighter outfits.

According to The Sun, Rihanna's choice of attire has been linked to insecurity about her body.

On June 19, stylist Tavia Sharp told The Sun that the "Umbrella" star wasn't feeling "motivated" to lose any of her post-baby weight after welcoming her second child, son Riot Rose, in August 2023.

"Rihanna's sexy era and putting it all out there is over for good," Tavia told the outlet. "For the first time, Rihanna feels self-conscious about her body image. She was typically a trendsetter, and people knew her as a global fashion icon. Now, Rihanna is not feeling confident about her post-baby body. The baggy clothes show she is also not motivated to return to her pre-baby weight."

The insider clarifies to Life & Style that this perception couldn't be further from the truth, as Rihanna views comments about her weight as compliments.

"Just because she's dressing in baggy clothing doesn't mean a thing, aside from the fact that she's following fashion," the source says. "That's the look right now and she's having fun with it, but when she feels like wearing more body con stuff she will because she genuinely loves being curvier. She thinks women are beautiful at any size but her personal preference is to have more meat on her bones, so the trolls that think they're insulting her by pointing out she's gained some weight are actually complimenting her, she's loving her body right now."
