BEIJING, Feb. 27 — Since her fight with boyfriend Chris Brown, Rihanna has been shuttled to various locations over the past two weeks to protect her privacy.

Now, she resurfaced in new photos released in Thursday’s print edition of the New York Daily News.

The 21-year-old star was photographed walking along the beach this weekend in Punta Mita, Mexico.

In the photos, she does not appear to show any of the bruising that were seen in the photo of her taken immediately following the altercation.

Since the Feb. 8 incident with Brown that left her bruised, the singer has only been seen in a couple backseat photos. The new released photos were reportedly taken at a private villa last Saturday, just one day after she celebrated her 21st birthday in L.A.

On Wednesday the L.A. district attorney’s office said the investigation was still open and no decision on charges had been made.
