Rihanna's been working and playing hard during her time in NYC.

While the singer's been busy in the recording studio during the days, she's been spending her nights out on the town.

On Sunday night, RiRi and her band hit Flashdancers gentlemen's club on Broadway around midnight, after finishing up in the studio.

According to a club insider, it was her first time at the strip club, but that didn’t stop her from tipping the topless girls dancing.  

"She and her group were tipping the girls quite frequently...it wasn’t only Rihanna," a source tells E! News. "They had a good time. They were drinking sodas and water."

So did Rihanna just watch from afar or did she get up close and personal with the dancing girls?

A source says that the Barbados beauty didn't get a lap dance and left the club around 2:30 am.

She's also been partying at hot spot 1Oak, where she hung until 3:30 am on Saturday night.

Now that we know she and Lady Gaga didn't really collaborate, can't wait to hear what's keeping her busy during the day.
