 The video 's first scene is set in a desert at night . Rihanna , wearing a garrison cap , sunglasses , and a stylized white top , stands in front of an army . This scene is intercut with scenes of Rihanna in a bunker ; she wears an army hard hat , pink lace up boots , and a skin @-@ colored top with small black rectangles covering her breasts . Half way through the first verse , the scene changes to a daytime desert scene in which Rihanna wears a low cut , short black dress with spiked shoulder pads , and walks through the location as small explosions occur around her .
