While Rihanna’s 5.8 million Instagram followers may love her stream of racy pictures, there’s one fan that’s totally against it—her mom.

The Bajan singer, who just canceled her tour date in Boston due to laryngitis, told Elle UK that her mother humbled her after seeing her Instagram feed.

“I’m not afraid of any person in this world, but my mother, I’m terrified of her,” said Rihanna. “She called me two days ago and reeled me in about two naked pictures [my pal] Melissa [Forde] put up on Instagram, a sneak peek from a photo book she’s making about me.”

One of the photos in question is of a bare-bottomed Rihanna smoking, perched in front of a fire with a glass of wine.

“She went crazy on me, I was like, embarrassed. I felt like I got my ass whipped in front of my class at school,” said Rihanna. “She humbled the f*ck out of me.”
