Actually, she wants our bodies, our faces, our feet, our ears (in 2019, she promises), and clearly, our wallets. Weโ€™re just waiting for her to slap her name and visage on a haircare collection, some wine labels (Bad Gal Wines, anyone?), and a line of healthy but scrumptious munchies simply called โ€œSnacksโ€ and sheโ€™ll pretty much sponsor our entire lives.

Oh, wait. Weโ€™re sponsoring hers. Because bitch better have my money, apparently. But Rih makes it feel so worthwhile, especially when she drops titillating little gems like this on social media.

No itโ€™s not burlesque, though judging by her chameleon-like performance in Valerian, sheโ€™s great at that, too. Itโ€™s Rihโ€™s version of an early Valentine. Itโ€™s only the first full week of January, but the lingerie mogul is dropping sexy new Savage x Fenty goodies on Wednesday. Thatโ€™s right: Sheโ€™s dropping panties just two days shy of the release of Fenty Beautyโ€™s new foundation shades, setting powders, and 50 shades of concealerโ€”so budget wisely.

That said, her latest round of sweet little nothings have a decidedly seasonal theme, and love may not let us wait.

Weโ€™re already smitten with the peekaboo and pastie-inspired set Rih is so graciously modeling for us, but Savageโ€™s social promises to have many more offerings in store for Rihโ€™s size-inclusive V-Day collection. Think sheer, spaghetti-strapped bodysuits, kiss-covered, curve-conscious bralettes and more. (And yes, those are hot pink, heart-shaped pasties.)

And if youโ€™re sans Valentine this year *raises hand*, never fear. Rihanna, patron saint of self-love, encourages you to love your own damned self this Valentineโ€™s Day. In other words, treat yoโ€™ self like you deserve, because thatโ€™s what a Savage girl does.

Besides, itโ€™s pretty clear that all Rih wants for Valentineโ€™s Day is our coins.
