Rihanna on the set of her new "Hard" music video in Simi Valley, CA - December 1st & 2nd 2009

The music video for “Hard,” the latest single from Rihanna‘s new album Rated R was filmed last week in Simi Valley, California over a 2 day period. We have no idea why she’s rocking Mickey Mouse ears so we’ll just have to wait for the video to see what’s up with that. Rapper Young Jeezy, who’s featured on the track, was also in town to film his scenes for the military themed clip.

In the pics Rihanna can be seen wearing next-to-nothing (is that a bra made of bullets?!) risking slippage of the nippage as she shoots her brand new music video, directed by Melina Matsoukas. Speaking to MTV, Rihanna herself said: “We got tanks, troops, helicopters, explosions, tight gear, lots of cute outfits, lots of bullets. Crazy!”

Crazy indeed… Check out the pics below!
