Rihanna, who may or may not be covertly working for Thai police, helped law enforcement arrest a woman who was performing a lewd sex show in Phuket — involving a live bird, two turtles, darts and a razor — without a license.

A series of graphic tweets from the pop star led police to arrest a bar owner as part of a crackdown on unlicensed, lewd performances, The Associated Press reports. Last month, one of Rihanna’s Instagram photos was responsible for the arrest of two Thai men who had an illegal pet slow loris.

Rihanna was at a bar in Phuket last month when she tweeted the following. (It’s Rihanna so, naturally, the tweets are explicit):

If Rihanna is traumatized, then you know it has to be bad. The owner of the bar where this probably nice lady performed was arrested this past Saturday.

“Authorities found out about this bar the morning after Rihanna tweeted about it, but we were not able to catch them violating the law until Saturday night,” local district chief Weera Kerdsirimongkon said. “We had been waiting for them and finally caught them red-handed.”

Weera said that the bar owner could face a month in jail and a $1,900 fine.

Rihanna: serving up justice one social media post at a time.
