Russian singer Slava has received some serious flack for a video of her posing topless with a man's hands cupping her boobs.

The singer called for World Peace in the post and said she hoped her nation would "never need to be protected from anything".

She posted the video for Defender of the Fatherland Day, a holiday that is observed on February 23 in Russia and commemorates the founding of the Red Army as well as being a general celebration of the armed forces.

Russia launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine under the pretense of "peacekeeping" the next day, on February 24.

In the video, Slava, whose real name is Anastasia Vladimirovna Slanevskaya, wears bright makeup and slicked-back hair as she poses for the camera while topless.

Meanwhile, a man's hands are seen cupping both her breasts as he hides behind the singer in an image similar to Janet Jackson's famous post for the cover of Rolling Stone magazine in 1993.

Slava accompanied the video with the message: "How to draw attention to words?

"Like this! Dear all, our beloved men, on the 23rd!

"I wish from the bottom of my heart that never, under any circumstances, will we need to be protected from anything (well, maybe only from bad weather).

"May goodness, love, and most importantly, world peace flourish!"

However, many viewers reacted with vitriol to the saucy clip and Slava later said she was forced to delete the video due to backlash making her feel uncomfortable.

She commented: "So much nastiness was poured on me. I deleted the post because I was worried about this."

The singer said her only intention was to please and entertain everyone during the troubling time.

This comes after it emerged Russian President Vladimir Putin has been suspended from his role as honorary president with the International Judo Federation following his decision to invade Ukraine.
