蕾哈娜与动物懒猴合照引发两人被捕

    A seemingly harmless photo that Rihanna posted over the weekend with a primate* in Thailand has had serious consequences for two individuals.

    Now on her Diamonds world tour, the 25-year-old singer spent some of her free time in between shows in Manila and Singapore, on the Thai island of Phuket, where she encountered a slow loris*, an endangered primate species.

    Rihanna posted a photo of her cuddling* the animal, captioning it, “Look who was talking dirty to me! #Thailand #nightlife.”

    The slow loris was presented to her by two people who were purportedly peddling* the protected species for photo opportunities.

    “Phuket authorities were alerted to the picture (of Rihanna), and last night police arrested the two individuals who brought out the loris as a photo opportunity for tourists,” said Weera Kerdsirimongkon, a Phuket district chief.(SD-Agencies)
