Rihanna Performs At Radio One Big Weekend

riri22 Rihanna Performs At Radio One Big Weekend

Rihanna was one of the featured performers at Radio One Big Weekend recently. Chris Brown’s ex-girlfriend performed  collection of her biggest hits including ‘Russian Roulette’, ‘Rude Boy’, ‘Hard’ and others. Peep the performances below:

‘Russian Roulette’ & ‘Don’t Stop The Music’

‘Hard’ & ‘Disturbia’

‘Rude Boy’ & ‘Te Amo’

The typical Rihanna ‘walk around stage, pose and rub my crotch’ affair, the performances were cut and pasted directly from her tour. However, it was interesting to see Rihanna try her hand at choreography during the ‘Rude Boy’ rendition and actually doing a good job in the process. Furthermore, her vocals in ‘Russian Roulette’ were very good (minus the flat notes near the end) as seems to be the case whenever she performs that song live. Other than those brief shining moments, there was nothing notable about the show. Luckily Rihanna was surrounded by dancers, musicians and backup singers (i.e. people with actual talent) to keep us distracted from what she doing with her fingers and trying to do with her voice.

Thoughts?

    THIS IS OLD NOT FOR IT AM SIGNING OUT HAVE FUN BUT STOP MAKING HER PERFORMANCE SOUND LIKE THEY AWFUL I’M GONE

  • Sam and Trent keep bring up CB name so we can argue. This is Rihanna’s blog. Don’t they get it. To add his name was all uncalled for ex, please!! This is about Rihanna

  • @spring you should be ashamed of yourself and old ass women hating on someone whose younger than you wow you fail at life #growup!

  • Those performances were boring she needs to get lessons on how to entertain people with her voice. When I watch a singer I want to hear singing like how Whitney and Mariah used to do, but this is no kind of entertaining singing. That is why I could never be a Rihanna fan because I want a singer to SANG!!!!!

    chris brown’s ex girlfriend such shade for no reason

  • "Dj Y2k Malone"

    May 23, 2010 at 2:33 pm

    well I bet everyone not to argue because right now trent and sam are the puppet masters they make these stupid stans and haters argue

  • ahhhh! my ears are bleeding!

  • What does chris brown have to do with this? Stirring up controversy I see. How can u say BACKUP singers have more talent than her? This site is disgusting. Enjoyed the performance. And why does it matter if it was ‘ripped from the tour’, was she really supposed to put together a whole new show which takes weeks WHILE she’s touring? She has won me over as a performer and I am buying my tickets to see her in Atlanta. Peace.

  • Same old same old..nothing new here guys. She is so freaking tall though!

    The Rude Boy performance was ok..she was kind of stiff on some of the movements and her voice was kind of off (per usual) But she did ok. I wont even comment on the Russian Roulette..lets just say that I’ve heard better.

    Thats was my “something nice challege” That’s all you’re getting though :P

  • Wow y’all on a roll with the rihanna post

    Jeez, what is this like almost the 20th post about Rihanna this month? Give it a rest TGJ, we know how you really feel about Rihanna. And why the hell does she keep dying her hair?

    I’m not even a Rihanna stan, but what the hell does this have to do with Kelly Rowland? She’s not even relevant at this moment, and probably never will be.

  • I liked them

  • I notice the hair covering one eye????

  • hate her or love her… she’s doin SOMETHING..cuz theat growd was goin BIZEERRKK!! lol

  • @HIHIHIHI

  • @HIHIHIHI 17 post this month. And you think that’s good? Tha’t how Asm & Trent are making their money because they know she is going to get alot of comments with the arguments and all. Trust me it’s not about her, its about money for them

  • @WOW how do you make money off blogs

  • sorry Sam and Trent

  • Yes Rih you betta WERK!! She betta wine and push back like a real Caribbean gyal.

  • @Sasah Come on now do you really think they are doing this for free?

  • TGJ…

    Take note of Rihanna’s success off of this video and STFU

  • WOW i was just asking how do u make money off blogs cuz i would o it so if u know would u educate me i am new to the blogging thing about 3 months old

  • I hated don’t stop the music though, the rest was descent.

  • they make money off of adds and how many people come their site..Hell nah they aint doing this for free. This blogging ish is lucrative! i think their is a website that can check a websites net worth..Ima google so yall can see..

  • @ jjfan nuh uhhh! That video made me uncomfortable!! lol!!

  • @ Gucci oh hell naw! the world is going to enddd! You actually hated something Rihanna did? *FAINTS lol

  • Nice jumper and her Dancer Brian Tanaka is FIONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I thought she did decent. I however can’t stand those fruity ass dancers twirling all around the place. There’s no choreography here, all they do is get in the way. But as usual, her band really makes the show.

  • who needs talent? she was surrounded by musicians and dancers just like all of the other artist are surrounded by the same. and no matter what rihanna is the headliner its her tour and she pays all of the others thats on that stage distracting away from as the header on the post says her lack of talent, it doesn’t mean anything because the super star is still getting paid and that performance was for 5 million radio listeners , whos mad?

  • HATIN ALL DAY….STAYIN PRESSED ALL DAY. RI GOT YA SAD LIFE ON LOCK LIKE THAT.

    SHE TWERKED IT AND Y’ALL KNOW SHE’S A BEAST SO HUSH YO GUMZ AND STAY MAD!

  • ‘lindy,.. u musta lost ur mind… and who told u she younger am older?????????
    now who’s the fail…
    child go to bed..

    flophanna worshipper..

    SMH

  • why is ciara being brought up

    fyi rihanna may be the better STUDIO singer but when it comes to ENTERTAINING the crowd giving them what they payed for Ciara wins hands down hands tie hands burned .

  • @WOW
    the hair covering one eye simply indicates that she’s a devil worshipper..
    i.e she joined the illuminati not tooo long ago..

    half the artists, actors.. in the hollywood indurstry are devil worshippers..
    believe it or leave it..
    people be care to what you listening to…
    ITS REAL
    dont believe me? well its all over youtube..

    this link proves it/ russian roulette subliminal messages

  • Hard sounds like crap- whose paying to see her
    ugghh!

  • I couldn’t finish the first video shit was awful and boring

  • @Spring Wow!!! While I was at that youtube site I opened 3 of them. OMG scary

  • @Spring message with ft young and her was something Jesue take the wheel

  • @WOW..
    told ya hun…

    its so true and so scary…

    SMH at the hollywood industry.

    God save this planet of humanity
    they must really tink we’re fools..
    there’s thousands of vids like that on youtube…
    only a fool would choose to ignore the gravity of it all..

  • @spring that was some scary stuff! poor rihanna! what have you gotten urself into child??

  • PERFORMANCES WAS AMAZING!!!!!!

    HIGHLIGHTS:

    SOS
    UMBRELLA
    RUDE BOY
    HARD

    SO MUCH SWAGGER, VOCALS ON POINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HATERS WILL HATE BUT SO MANY PEOPLE LOVE THIS CHICK!!!!!

  • RIHANNA KILLIN IT. RIRI-U THE BEST-LOL. SIMPLY ADORE HER.

  • NOTICE SAMANTHA DIDNT PUT THE BEST PERFORMANCES UP!!!

    VOCALS ON FUCKING POINT!!

    UMBRELLA

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FIqvdaVtbs

    SOS

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYkUWPzf2QE

    AAAAAAAAMAZING!

  • NOTICE SAMANTHA DIDNT PUT THE BEST PERFORMANCES UP!!!

    VOCALS ON FUCKING POINT!!

    UMBRELLA

  • RIHANNA SUCKS SHE IS SOOO BORING

  • She was great.

  • I thought they were pretty damn good. She’s really improved performance-wise lately, and that should be commended rather than torn down.

    Sigh.

    Anyway.

  • LOL. All of a sudden a hairstyle means you’re a devil worshipper. Funny that no one was pushing this mess when Chris Brown was writing her songs and chopping her down for almost 2 years. Now his stans come out of the wood work with all this bullshit. Honey if you had to go to youtube for spiritual guidance from an unknown source, then you’re soul was never in tact to begin with.

    Russian Roulette was written by Neyo and Disturbia was written by none other than Chris Brown. Now does that add up?

    If you try hard enough to prove something, then you start convincing yourself it’s true even if it doesn’t make sense at all. If I wanted to prove that the sky was purple honey, I would find anything that would support that no matter how the shallow the “evidence” was or how much it made no sense. This is the case with this entire devil worshipping fiasco. SMH. If you only realized that you got your information from people who obviously have an agenda. You are completely missing the mark when you blame celebrities for this mess. It actually has nothing to do with them. I wish people would get the real facts but child I’m not even going to go there.

    :)

  • She’s STILL shit.

  • FAIL @ 2:55 Russian Roulette.

  • Chua! AGAIN, I WILL SAY:

    May 23, 2010 at 6:31 pm

    I swear if this chic wasnt pretty i.e…

    LIGHT SKINNED

    COLORED EYES

    AND HAD SEX APPEAL…THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL SHE WOULD BE THIS BIG…

    I feel for the the Kelly’s, Tiffany Evans, Karina Passians and Kat Delunas of the industry…GOTTA FLING PUSSY, BREAST AND ASS IN ORDER TO SELL OR MAKE IT!

    TEAM Rihorrid! LMAOOO

  • Umm Kelly was there too……………………..

  • i must be on the wrong blog

  • TO WHO EVER CARES ALL OF THE NEGATIVE BULL SHIT ON AND ABOUT RIHANNA DID NOT START UNTIL HER INCIDENT WITH HER EX THATS WHEN PEOPLE STARTED THIS SHYT,, STAY TUNED WE ARE ALL GOING TO SEE HOW THIS LIFETIME NETWORK TRUE LIFER IS GOING TO END TOGETHER. SO TAKE A SEAT AND WATCH HOW THE DAYS OF OUR LIVES UNFOLD RIGHT BEFORE ALL OF OUT EYES.

  • ALL YOU SHYT TALKER RIHANNA HAVE NOT FAILED AT SHYT, THATS THE WAY YOU SEE IT AND SHE MIGHT NOT BE THE BIGGEST BUT YOU CAN BET YOUR SWEET ASS SHE IS HOLDING IT DOWN , AND COUNTING HER PAPER ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK, SO KEEP TALKING SHYT ABOUT HOW SHE WAS SOUNDING SO BAD ON STAGE THATS YOUR BROKE ASSES , SHES HOLDING HER OWN AND ALL OF YOU DARN LOOSERS KNOWS IT BUT IT PUTS A BITTER TASTE IN YOUR MOUTHS BECAUSE YOU KNOW THAT ALL YOU CAN DO IS TALK SHYT WHILE SHE KEEPS COUNTING HER PAPER ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK, STAY YOUR BROKE ASSES MAD.

  • i wish i would

    May 23, 2010 at 7:15 pm

    ((((AWESOME)))) I ENJOYED IT SO MUCH
    I love her voice. Its Unique and you can hear the different auctives when she sings. frankly Im tired of all the female vocalist that can SSSSSAAAAAAAAGGGGGG, hollering in their best gospel C-notes, sweat routines, with no flavor or originality. They all sound the same.
    I dont think the audience came to see her band or backgound singers/dancers. They invited and paid Rihanna. However they all work great together and believe in their Artist Ms. Rihanna Wonderful Show. Live vocals & all no lipsynching here.

  • Decent.

  • I liked the rude boy & te amo performance

  • Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

    I just watched a goat get scarified (that’s what it sounded like)

  • BEYONCE VS. WORLD

    May 23, 2010 at 11:40 pm

    @GUCCI I COULDN’T HAVE SAID IT BETTER THOSE RUMORS ARE STUPID AND NONE OF IT ADDS UP OKAY SHE’S A DEVIL WORSHIPER BECAUSE OF HER HAIR COVERING HER EYE WAS AALYIAH A DEVIL WORSHIPER AND I’M SURE IF U GO AND REVERSE ANYONES SONG U WILL HEAR STUPID SHIT PLEASE STOP THIS IS HATING ON ANOTHER LEVEL

  • I actually liked the Rude Boy’ & ‘Te Amo performance, RARE. Id give that 3.5 stars, an upgrade from the usual 2. Vocally she wasnt half bad either, also RARE. She looked great also, she still needs work on her Stage presence though…

    I can now atleast officially call her a half talented Studio Voice now. Keep it up.

  • Yellow Gorillah

    May 24, 2010 at 1:11 am

    Funny how they did not post up SOS or Umbrella Which where the Best Performances
    This site gives me jokes,, STAY MAD!

  • @Gucci
    How is it Chris Brown stans? I’ve only seen on person with Chris as their default.
    Not everyone who throws shade at her are Chris Brown fans ever thought people just generally don’t like her?

  • Yes Rihanna! I love this girl!

  • X ,Y and Crazeee!

    May 24, 2010 at 5:11 am

    I just love her and everything she does

  • I would love to watch you attempt to do half the stuff she does on stage, ok she isn’t no Beyonce, but it must be tiring to sing a full set, let alone dance a little. So unless you can do all of the above, I’d preserve judgement.

  • YAAASSS!! Go Rihanna keep on performing Disturbia. Chris Brown is still collecting those royalty checks!!! :lol:

  • “I was wrong for writing Disturbia”-Chris Brown
    See Chris knew what was up. Now look at her. He’s thinking that was a harmless song but didnt knoww she was really in disturbia.

  • I like how the Rihanna stans didnt point out the fact that Rihanna sang Umbrella remix which featured Chris Brown. Or didnt comment on Disturbia. Like someone else said Chris is collecting those royalty checks :D

  • Last Boy on Earth

    May 24, 2010 at 9:05 am

    Rihanna sings Disturbia in her tour too, so what? It’s one of her biggest hits, she doesnt give a fuck about Chris Brown.
    I didnt like the Dont Stop the Music performance but no one in this world can tell me that she wasnt good in these performances, if she really is talentless like people say, I would like to be as talentless as her :D

  • Last Boy on Earth

    May 24, 2010 at 9:12 am

    @spring
    You arent older then Rihanna? You sure look like it, go get some bananas you gorilla face and do you actually believe this “illuminati agenda” stuff? Oh it is so easy to recognize the immature and dumb people from the intelligent ones… This is a joke but if it really is true, do you really think only the ones you dont like are the ones that “worship devil”? Way to be delusional and naive.. Go get some knowledge and a brain bitch

  • I’m not much of a fan of rihanna but after watching the performance of rude boy (the only one of thee songs I was interested in hearing) I was actually impressed. The stage presence that is usually lacking from her performances was definitely there. And I loved the fact that she bothered to incorporate some choreography. I actually loved it.

  • These two guys were repeatedly denied interviews from Rihanna…so now they are haters.

  • I can’t believe you said “Chris Brown’s Ex’ Girlfriend”..that is cold.

  • Ya’ll just keep bringing up CB’s name on Rihanna’s thread. Why is that?

  • newsflash haters

    May 24, 2010 at 2:41 pm

    gwaan ri ri do your thing girl. she is having fun and doing her, and I love it. Plus the girl is pure eye candy, and that cannot be denied.

  • Russian Roulette was good in the beginning but child, at the end of that song, GOOD LORD! She was soooo off key!

    I love the song “Don’t stop the music” but she didn’t do it any justice with this performance. You couldn’t even hear her voice during the verses. And the foolish stans always talking about how her voice is strong. Smh. Yeah right!

    “Hard” was okay, but that may be because I really like that song.

    “Disturbia” was whack.

    “Rude Boy” was my fave because she actually danced and danced well!

    “Te Amo” kinda boring. Still like the song though.

    Overall, you could put any female with a great body and face on that stage to perform these songs and it would be just as entertaining. She has absolutely no stage presence. I was more focused on the dancers, lights, props, background singers, and that awesome band.

  • LMAO! Ur kidding! Her voice is so GROSS! Makes my skin itch!

  • rihanna is amazing i saw her on tour and she was absolutely brilliant :) if you dont like rihanna why come on here, she doesn’t need haters. Jealousy!
