On Wednesday, the “High School” singer took her girls out for a seductive Instagram pic, letting her long black hair fall forward to cover up her nipples.

The photo comes as her ‘Twerk It’ single with Busta Rhymes’ heats up the club and the official remix starring T.I., Jeremih, Ne-Yo, French Montana, and dancehall’s Vybz Kartel dropped. Kartel’s addition to the remix comes on the heels of his “not guilty” verdict in the murder case of a Kingston businessman.
