BATTLE OF THE BOOBS!!! RIHANNA AND MILEY CYRUS STEP OUT IN REVEALING OUTFITS AT THE AMFAR GALA!!!

Miley Cyrus and Rihanna's cleavage-baring styles left little to the imagination at the amfAR Inspiration Gala in Hollywood on Wednesday night.Miley, 21, stunned in a jaw-dropping Tom Ford bondage-inspired dress, featuring a few strategically-placed strips of cloth to cover her chest. Besides all that, she appeared modest from the waist down in a long black skirt. Meanwhile, Rihanna, 26, almost seemed to one-up the "Wrecking Ball" singer in a white Tom Ford dress with a dangerously high slit and purple sequins covering her bust.Rihanna hit for me though but miley kinda missed...What do you think ?
