Rihanna has enlisted Vogue Cover girl Agyness Deyn to narrate a monlogue at the opening of her new video for We Found Love.
The video, which was shot in Northern Ireland, stars Hackney-based boxer-turned-model Dudley O'Shaunessy, who plays out a tempestuous and dramatic relationship with Rihanna to its sad conculsion as she sings the words: "We found love in a hopeless place".
"It's like you're screaming, and no one can hear," Deyn says in her distinctive Northern accent.
"You almost feel ashamed, that someone could be that important - that without them, you feel like nothing. No one will ever understand how much it hurts. You feel hopeless; like nothing can save you. And when it's over, and it's gone, you almost wish that you could have all that bad stuff back - so that you could have the good."
