Rihanna Confirms New Tour

Published: Monday 2nd Apr 2012 by Sam

Ever sat on your cat?

Well, the resulting sound is one akin to hearing Rihanna live.

And yet this hasn’t stopped the popular stage parader from confirming that she is planning a new tour.

Details after the jump…

Speaking to our friends over at Capital FM, the 24 year old said:

“Tour. We’re going to be going on tour next year. So this year we’re spending out time planning to make sure it’s bigger than anything we’ve done and something more impactful, maybe something different, so my fans can get excited about it.”

We can only hope she “impacts” a vocal coach pronto. Because as the millions ploughed into her past treks have shown, bright lights and new wigs will not ensure her albums “sell that sell”.

To date, Fenty’s latest set ‘Talk That Talk’ has yet to sell over 800k in the US – despite being released over 5 months ago.

Your thoughts?

  7. YMCB April 2, 2012

    she doesnt get much out of that tour thats the impact of a 360 degree contact if you think i am lying ask def jam

  8. francois April 2, 2012

    um, #TTT bangs: everyone got that on deck. Y’all trippen.

  9. Lax April 2, 2012

    @ NICKY,,,Not only do you know english well you spells good and you
    type truths and facts,,,, unlike me i type truths and facts but my spelling
    english or poor….. I need to just slow it down some ,,,then i am better!!!!

    They (Ass Wipes) have been Laughting their asses off because there have been so few fighting this war of Keyboards and Words.
    Yessssssss Rihanna go right on and step up to the plate and STAKE YOUR CLAIM, I MEAN WHOS GOING TO STOP YOU,,,,DON’T FRET THEM THROWING THEIR RENTED KEYBOARD AT YOU….THEY WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THOSE KEYBOARDS THEY OR KILLING IF THEY THROWS THEM AT YOU, GIRRRRRL!!

  10. ecchi April 2, 2012

    ohh my. you hate that b**** and still have to post to get your money. huh sam? no word for that but lol. how fake you are. 😀

    still dunno what to expect of that tour. more show for the smaller voice she’s smoking away. if she doesn’t change her sound to a bit more rough she’ll really loose it if she can’t sing her songs sounding well anymore. so more backtracking, c****** poppin’ and dancin’ and whatever props on stage. maybe all distraction or just like mainstream always does shows. -_-

  11. Keith Jones April 2, 2012

    the Rihanna shade is alive and well….what about the 90 Mill she made from the last tour? Can’t knock homegirl’s hustle.

  12. beyonce adele fan April 2, 2012

    Shame def jam be using the poor island girl
    It not fair on her ‘vocals’ she needs to rest at least she just walks up and down the stage
    Werk Riri blue Ivy needs that dough for her 1st Bday in Paris,talk that talk album sales didn’t rank in enough
    Keep hustling for BEY and jay and blue

  13. Lax April 2, 2012

    Keep telling your silly self that she don’t get that much from her tour because
    of her 360 degree contract. Keep telling yourself that selling music and topping the digital downloads with over 47 million and the most in the Us ever keep telling your self she don’;t get paid that much because of a 360 degree contact, if that be the case then try figuring out how much, kelly, latoya, mischelle, chris, trez, j cole, and others or getting paid, fool???And Rita ORE OR GETTING PAID,
    nicki, gaga, jennifer hudson, whale, izzy, GTFO….360 CAN IS DOES EFFECT THEM ALL,,,,Fools.

  14. James227 April 2, 2012

    This stan/fan was is so old. TGJ shades Rihanna all the time and I would not be suprise if they were part of the war comments themselves. I am a fan of a few artists but I not going to go toe to toe with the b******* over & over like in the past

  15. geeesss April 2, 2012

    what could she possibly have to tour about? That will make me want to go to a concert and actually sit through it? and hear her sing about stuff that does not concern or interest me?

  16. Lax April 2, 2012

    What about her Endorsements, what about her movie
    and all of her Music sales. If this be the case then how
    much did Kelly Rowland clear after she paid her bills for 2011?
    And all the others? You will do anything, i mean anything to try
    and rob Rihanna of her shine and it’s not working at all, she still shines
    as bright as she ever has and you will be here same time saME STATION TRYING YOUR BEST TO SHOOT HOLES IN EACH AND EVERY WAVE SHE KEEP RIGHT ON MAKING.

  17. Hodgepodge April 2, 2012

    TalkThatTalk is a refreshing album me like it in its entirety. Why is TGJ bluntly hating on Riri? She ain’t ma fav but folks feel her and that’sthat!

  18. SHESDUMB ★ THE CAPS LOCK ICON April 2, 2012

    WELL HOPEFULLY SHE SELLS MORE TICKETS THAN HER ALBUM SOLD COPIES.
    PEOPLE WOULD RATHER GET DRUNK AND HELP HER SING HER OWN SONGS,THAN PURCHASE HER ALBUM SO HER SHE SHOULDNT HAVE TO REDUCE THE TICKET PRICES SO DRASTICALLY ALL THE TIME DUE TO POOR TICKET SALES. BUT I WOULDNT BE SUPRISED IF YET ANOTHER ARTICLE CAME OUT EXPOSING RIHANNA AND HER POOR TICKET SALES. SHE HASNT HAD MANY NUMBER 1’S THIS ERA. SO SAD.

  19. Cockiness April 2, 2012

    how i know bitter b**** @kimberly would be here…*eyerolls

    TGJ your vocal jokes are stale

  20. PAU April 2, 2012

  21. kingphoenix9 April 2, 2012

    YAAAAAAAASSSS MA’AM! I have been waiting for Rihanna’s farewell tour ever since loud era began with that ghastly “Only Girl in the World!

    “R.I.P to the girl you used to be, Rihanna its over, its finally over….”

  22. Ha! April 2, 2012

    @kIMBERLY…i STILL THINK SHE MADE MORE THEN C-ERROR WITH HER RUMORED LOST. LMAO!!!!!

  23. Always love you, Whitney (rip) April 2, 2012

    Id like to see her perform where have you been, you da one, and we all want love.

  24. Always love you, Whitney (rip) April 2, 2012

    Sam y do u keep shading her about a vocal coach. She’s been had ones if u look at her official page. Okay she sounds pitchy sometimes but that’s not all the time and you can tell me she doesn’t sound good when she performed California king bed on American idol an Russian roulette on yahoo

  25. love April 2, 2012

    To all Rihanna stans….

    Slowly back away. It’s a trap. Sam, once again trying to get us to pay his bills with a Rihanna hate post. Obviously, Bey posts or anything else won’t keep the light bill on.

    But anywayz, yes for this tour. I would have loved for Rih to take a 2 year break, but I understand the need to tour. A 360 deal is no joke. Hopefully, she won’t release another album. That’s just pure s******. Breath RIH!

  32. ♛ POP Royalty ♛ (Rude Boy) April 2, 2012

    as if i am shocked psycho b****** like @kimPORKY won’t be there … 🙄

    anyway , i’m XD , if she meant by ” impactful ” that she will give me as good of a performances(s) as her performance at the grammy’s then that will be something worthy of getting XD for !

  33. ♛ POP Royalty ♛ (Rude Boy) April 2, 2012

    To date, Fenty’s latest set ‘Talk That Talk’ has yet to sell over 800k in the US – despite being released over 5 months ago.

    i wonder if your KELLY ROWLAND sold as many WORLDWIDE ….. despite her album released ages ago ! 😆 😆

    “Ever sat on your cat?

    Well, the resulting sound is one akin to hearing Rihanna live.” Sam, you’re hilarious. I’m yet to go see her live, but at least give her her props- hasn’t her album sold 2 million WW?

  35. xd April 2, 2012

    800K in the US (_NO PROMO) and over 2,6M WW… more than 4

    pahaha

  36. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) April 2, 2012

    I’m really glad she’s taking her time for this tour. It’s true that her previous tours looked kind of rushed, so this is a positive change. I hope she does great. And I’m also glad because she obviously won’t release another album in November ( 😉 ) and that’s a good decision imo.

    As far as her sales are concerned, her only promo were the Grammy’s, the Brits and X Factor and she hasn’t even released 3 videos off of her album, so 800k in the US and about 2 million ww is excellent.

  37. ♛ POP Royalty ♛ (Rude Boy) April 2, 2012

    @ASAP :

    XACTLY !!

    talk about other b****** who were JUDGES in X-FACTOR for an entire season and couldn’t move 1 million copy WW. WHILE BEING in the game for like 15 years. 😡

    rihanna is fine. 🙂

  38. commanderofthedancefloor April 2, 2012

    oh sam she grossed 90 million on her last tour so expect another high number for this nexy one!!

    @shes dumb
    haha hunny your comment makes no sense!! so rihanna used all these tricks to sell tickets because they werent selling and she even discounted them (by the way every artist does this)!!!! BUT riri grossed 90 million!!! so with tickets at a very low price the only way for her to gross that much is for more people to go see her, because regardless of ticket prices being low she still grossed 90 million!

    anyways this tour isnt comin until next year so i am happy she is taking a year break hopefully she brings an album right before the tour! maybe in march or april!

  39. Lax April 2, 2012

    @LOVE & GEESSS,,,Like you or trying to make some one think
    you have supported her in the first place, we or used to the shade
    as a matter of fact i look forward to it, seeing that through all of
    the shade and slanderous and the making of fun of Rihanna’s
    ACCENT AND HOW SHE SPEAKS ENGLISH, PERIOD IS TRULY
    A TURN OFF FROM MANY OF YOU, SHES CARIBBEAN AND SHE
    TALKS WITH A ACCENT AND YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT IS A
    BAD THING TO MANY WHO TRIES TO OR NOT TRIES TO MANY OF
    YOU OR MAKING FUN OF HOW RIHANNA’S VOICE SOUNDS PERIOD,
    THAT’S SO SAD….HER VOCALS IS ONE OF THE MANY THINGS THAT
    MAKE HER SO APPEALING TO THE MASSES AND THAT BEAUTIFUL
    CONTAGIOUS SMILE AND HER DOWN TO EARTH SENSE OF HUMOR.
    ALL THE OTHER THINGS THAT SHE GET SHADED ABOUT STILL WILL
    HOLD UP TO THE “GRAPES” CROWN JEWEL MS, KELLY!!!!!

  40. Lax April 2, 2012

    And yes we or Curry Goats and we or proud of it. From now on just know that the references of Curry Goat and other names she is called do Reflect many people who comes from the Caribbeans and it’s a let down from you Americans. And it’s clear that you accept many who or from other countries or natainalities and refuses to accept Rihanna and that is why she is shaded so lona and so hard. And the other thinh is this, why is there so many American Born women who or not CURRY GOATS And they still have not reached their goals? What’s there hold back? As i read one time that Rihanna has made it this far because her p***y was at the right place at the right time, now how sad is that? If that be the case everybody and their
    mammas need to put their p***y’s to work now don’t they? There or many of you who don’t support her and or fcorever talking in the second and third person like you will skip this tour and how you hope she don’t sale tickets in the Us and we have heard you loud and clear that is what her Manger & Labe and strong supporters see and know very well by now.

    In Business to make it you have got to be able to caters to all Demographics and thats real talk. With the economic climate around the world no one is above the Law as far as Supply and Demand goes. Its one thing to be Beyonce, Kelly or other artist who is LOVED AND ADORED BY THE AMERICAN EVEN THEY HAVE TO PLAY TO THE BEAT OF THE MUSIC, BETTER ASK SOMEBODY, WHY DO YOU THINKK THEIR ASSES OR ALWAYS WORKING THEIR ASSES TO STAY
    12 STEPTS AHEAD OF THE GAME, WELLLLLLL RIHANNA HAVE CAUGHT ON AND SHES BURNING THE CANDLE FROM BOTH ENDS JUST LIKE ALL OF THE OTHERS OR DOING. iF THEY OR ON BREAK THEY OR SHOOTING ENDORSEMENT PICTURES OR COVERING MAGAZINE’S OR EVEN SELLING BOTTLED WATER,,,,ASK THE KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANG,,,,SHE DOUBLE TAST ALL OF THE TIME ON AND OFF VACATION,,,,, LAST YEAR SHE OPENED A CLOTHING LINE OR SHE TOOK HER LINE TO THE UK, AND DID OVER A DOZEN OR SO OF OTHER VENTURES TO KEEP HER BOTTOM LINE HIGH AND HOW DARE YOU TRY AND SAY THAT IF RIHANNA SIT HER CAREER WILL DIE, MAYBE SO THEREFORE RIHANNA ‘S BEST BET IS TO KEEP STRICKING WHILE THE IRON IS HOT,,,BECAUSE WE DON’T WANT KELLY ROWLAND TO PASS HER IN THE MONEY $$$$ DEPARTMENT, NOW DO I?

  41. Lax April 2, 2012

    And when her album leaked, many of you downloaded it
    and posted the link, back to back and laughted and partied
    til the cows came home and through it all she’s still making
    waves and selling.

  42. Lax April 2, 2012

    And about Rihanna and dropping 6 albums in 6 years,
    so what jayz dropped ten albums in ten years, and he has
    the $$$$$ to prove it. Rihanna is young enough to keep
    doing it till she get enough.

  43. Lax April 2, 2012

    Rihanna’s friend Katy she’s talked about real bad, also and she
    just snagged a huge endorsement with Adidas, and that’s the
    way you do it. Gaga is doing her thing in style and she’s a $$$$
    maker and do any of you think that “AKON” Is worried about the
    small talk, hell to the NAAAAAAAAH…And “AKON’S Brother Bu Thiam
    Rihanna’s label head and Jayz do you think they or hooked on STUPID?

  44. therealhonesttruth April 2, 2012

    Even though I like Rihanna music I’ve never been to jump up and say I want to go see her live. There is certain people who you buy there songs like Rihanna and Adele. But you would never want to go see them perform live. Adele doesn’t seem like she knows how to work a stage even though her vocals are flawless. For Rihanna i’m trying to come up with a reason why i wouldn’t or why i would. There are certain people who you just want to see take over a stage like Micheal Jackson, Britney, Lady Gaga, Madonna, or Beyonce. Some people just have music that is made for live performances and shows. I never seen a Rihanna performances that has really moved me. But when i do i will definitely go see her.

    im gonna throw this out there..this b**** wanna b nicki minaj so bad…one, she wears a short bob wig in the “You da One” video, the same type if wig Nicki Minaj wore in the “Where Them Girls At” video…and now is this b**** gay?!?! She be on twitter talkin about “I’m lookin for a fine b****” and ” she wanna be on the bottom” and all types of s***, like WTF…ohkkay? Then in the “Cockiness” and “Birthday Cake Remix” where she “raps”, maybe, just maybe it’s me, but she channels alot of minaj…NOW this h** going on tour? Let me say nicki is going to start touring in May/June…Rihanna just left tour in Feb, she put out 2 music video’s form Talk That Talk, performed We Found Love on T.V. a whole bunch of times and that’s it? Uh, since Talk That Talk (the song) didn’t do to good, can we get a new single…or what about another video…NO, this is a smart one, how about you just take a break from the media period..take a much needed break and experience new things, learn new things, explore new places, meet new people, so that way when you do go back to recording, you have something to talk about, other than s**, kissing, or that Nah Nah Nah s***…just thought i’d put that out there….

    and you bytches can try and write her off at
    your own Risk, because shes just getting started.

  54. Lax April 2, 2012

  63. Saetana April 3, 2012

    TGJ are obsessed by Rihanna, they post about her all the time. We get it, you don’t like her, quit boring us with your hater obsessions! Rihanna fans are well aware of the fact her live vocals are, to put it nicely, variable – she has other things going for her and has a decent enough recording voice plus some banging tunes. She has been around for quite a while now and is still very successful, hating on her isn’t going to change that ;o)

  64. BLACKSTUD April 3, 2012

    Come on baby Rihanna.. let’s flop like there’s no tomorrow!!

    1- Watch this tour earnings at number F*** IT by the end of the year

    2- Watch the next album debut at number 10

    SPIT in my face when Rihanna outsells the KING.
