Rihanna's tweets have led to another arrest in Thailand - this time the owner of a live sex show.

The singer went to the show on the party island of Phuket and tweeted racy comments about one of the female acts.

"I'm traumatized!!!" she told her 32 million Twitter followers afterwards, adding: "Only in #Thailand."

Thai police were alerted by the tweets and charged a bar owner in connection with the lewd performance, local district chief Veera Kerdsirimongkol said.

"It was the result of the visit by Rihanna. The authorities will be more strict towards inappropriate shows or wildlife attractions," he said.

The star was on a break from her Diamonds World Tour when she visited the "ping-pong show" last month.

She also posted a link on Twitter to an Instagram photo that showed her in sunglasses snuggling up to a furry primate called the slow loris, and tweeted: "Look who was talkin dirty to me!"

Police later arrested two people for allegedly peddling protected animals.

Use of the slow loris and other protected species for tourist snaps is common in Thai resorts, but is illegal.

According to wildlife campaigners, mother lorises are often killed when the young are stolen. The primates' teeth are also removed due to their toxic bite.
