Rihanna Teases Fans in Short 'ANTIdiaRY' Clip Ahead of New Album, Christmas Day Release?

Rihanna has revealed the sixth clip from her ANTIdiaRy campaign in order to promote her Anti album. Each of these short clips is meant to tease fans ahead of the album release and it has now been suggested that Anti may have a Christmas release date. Of course, there have been several suggested release dates for the album, including Nov. 5 as well as Black Friday. Her ANTIdiaRy clips have been created in a partnership with Samsung and show the pop star confronting, well, herself.

NME was the publication to suggest this time that Anti is set for a Christmas release, although there has been no official word as of yet.

ANTIdiaRy is additionally involved in a partnership with Punchdrunk theatre company and according to an official press statement released to Billboard, the clips are supposed to give fans "an exclusive journey through Rihanna's life story." The clips are decidedly creepy but enthralling.

While she has released plans for a world tour as well as ANTIdiaRY, according to Sia, Rihanna's album is still not done, and said that during a songwriting meeting the two had Rihanna chose 4 songs out of 25 for Anti. This is not the first time that the two have worked together, as Sia wrote Rihanna's smash hit "Diamonds" in 2012.

"She came over to my house for the first time the other night. I had met her very briefly before, super sweet person, and the other night she came over to my house and listened to half of 25 songs I played her because she's still looking for songs for her new album," Sia said to BBC Radio 2 as reported by Unreality TV. "She was there clearly to listen to songs and see if there was anything she was into, it was a business meeting, for sure."
