It Looks Like Rihanna decided to give out a treat of her own for fans this Halloween weekend. The pop star has returned to Instagram, much to the delight of her 12 million followers.

Early Sunday morning, she suddenly returned to her account in true Rihanna fashion, posting a sexy, upside down selfie with the caption “hellurrr #badgalback”.

She followed it up by sharing a second photo with a graphic illustration of a bikini-clad Rihanna holding hands with an Instagram illustration.

Yup, it’s cute and her fans couldn’t be happier to see her back from her six-month hiatus. Back in May when her feed first vanished, the timing was suspicious. It was just one day after she posted topless photos from a steamy Lui magazine shoot and then quickly removed them. Instagram claimed to have “accidentally” removed Rihanna’s account and then restored it.

Rihanna never commented, but the singer stopped posting and then deleted her account again.

Are you happy to see Rihanna back on your feed?
