Rihanna cuts her cake with a sword

When Rihanna was given a special event to celebrate her birthday in South Korea, the star probably thought she would be given a cake.

However, it is unlikely that she would have anticipated using a sword to cut it with.

Looking as stylish as ever in a black jacket with huge shoulder pads and a pretty pink skirt, the Russian Roulette singer rose to the challenge of slicing open her cake with a ceremonial sword at the event in Seoul.

In the country to promote her new album Rated R, the 22-year-old was also given a gift in a jewel covered box to help her celebrations go with a swing.

As much as the Caribbean singer appeared to be enjoying Asian culture, she has gone back to her roots for the video to her new single Rude Boy.

Dressed in a variety of sexy outfits which are inspired by the clothes worn in Jamaican dance halls, Rihanna is shown dancing in front of a multi-coloured background and is even seen riding a model zebra.
