The new clip for Rihanna's 'S&M' single has reportedly been banned in eleven countries.

NME reports that the salacious clip has been banned in eleven countries, although it doesn't specify which ones.

Oddly enough, her album is currently number one on the international best-seller chart in Saudi Arabia.

MTV are apparently considering re-editing it the clip for daytime play, even though Rihanna tweeted that they had approved the clip in the first place.

The 'S&M' clip is behind an 'adult content' screen on YouTube and BBC Radio 1 will only play the song after 7pm because of the lyrics.

The rainbow coloured clip features reporters wearing ballgags, a whip-wielding dominatrix, blow-up sex dolls, latex outfits, Rihanna walking celebrity blogger Perez Hilton around on a leash and herself in rope bondage.

She also suggestively swallows a banana in the clip, and tweeted afterwards that she hate bananas and had a spit bucket on set.

Rihanna is now hosting an uncensored version on her website.
