In Northern Ireland's council elections a farmer who objected to how Rihanna was dressed as she filmed a music video in his field has lost his council seat.
Alan Graham, of the Democratic Unionist Party, hit headlines across the world after intervening as the singer wore a skimpy outfit while filming a video for her 2011 hit We Found Love.
Mr Graham said at the time he did not "believe young ladies should have to take their clothes off to entertain".
But he said he had not halted the filming, adding that Rihanna had been "very gracious and respectful" when they spoke, and they had "parted company on good terms".
Mr Graham has been a councillor on Ards and North Down Council for several terms.
He is known for his conservative views and last year objected to a proposal to light up Bangor Town Hall in the rainbow colours for a Pride event.
The DUP veteran lost his council seat to Alliance Party representative Scott Wilson.
Gary Donnelly, a high profile dissident republican politician, has been elected in Derry and Strabane.
Standing as an independent republican, he topped the poll in a ward that includes the Creggan area of Derry, where journalist Lyra McKee was murdered by the New IRA last month.

Sinn Féin's former West Tyrone MP Barry McElduff has made a return to politics by being elected to Fermanagh and Omagh District Council.
He was forced to resign his Westminster seat after posing with a loaf of bread on his head on the anniversary of the IRA murders of 10 Protestant men and Kingsmill in Co Armagh in 1979.
The Ulster Unionist Party, which was once the dominant force in Northern Ireland politics, appears to be struggling and could finish as the biggest loser in terms of seats.
While Sinn Féin and the DUP are battling for top spot, the centre ground Alliance Party is likely to make the most gains in terms of seats.
With a day of counting still to go it currently has 43 councillors, 11 more than its total in the last local government elections in 2014.
Much of the focus today will be on the performance of a number of high-profile candidates.
In north Belfast, Sinn Féin's candidates include John Finucane, son of Belfast solicitor Pat Finucane, whose murder by the UDA in February 1989 was one of the most controversial killings of the troubles.
He is expected to poll strongly and is already being tipped as a future Lord Mayor of Belfast.
