      Rihanna Loud Tour Grosses 90 Million (Plus Official Top 25 Tours Of 2011)

      Rihanna’s “LOUD” concert was the highest grossing Hip-Hop/R&B tour for the 2011 year, taking in over $90 million dollars. Come inside to find out how tours from Usher, Sade, and Kanye West/Jay-Z fared inside…..
      According to POLLSTAR, which is well known for ranking the Top 25 Worldwide Tours for 2011, Rihanna is the Queen of the R&B Pack with $90M in ticket sales. She wrapped up another tour and went on her LOUD tour for 6 months all this year.
      U2 was the #1 grossing act with $231M and youngin’ Taylor Swift grossed over $104M. While these aren’t the amounts the celebs get to take home themselves, they definitely get a hefty chunk of it after their crews, management and third party promo companies are all paid.
      Sade brought in $83 million dollars, followed by Usher with $59M and The Throne (which only toured a little over 2 months) with $48M.
      Congrats to all the big money makers!

    Looks good! It’ll be nice for Rihanna to explain herself! But that aside. Her fans will always love her because she comes across more real and personable than some celebrities who seem affected and mannequin-on-the-move like!

  8. Beyonce’s Weave (& Her “HIVE” of Head-Lice) August 9, 2012

    This looks like it’s going to be epic. Even Oprah has seen that Rihanna is real, authentic and truthful. There are no gimmicks with Rihanna, what you see is what you get and she at least can walk around in her neighborhood. People react positively to her and she doesn’t have to fake it in her neighborhood nor think she is better than everyone else.

    She at least doesn’t try to run away from who she is nor change anything about herself to make herself look different. She is a beautiful successful woman who’s star power spans the whole universe. A true Universal megastar she is and the most successful Black Popstar in music history (which she is still making).

    • Blue August 9, 2012

      R****** R**** will never b black or have black character idiots!!!!! Oprah doesn’t care about who she is she using ur stupid b**** to get attetion to get more viewers remember Oprah show its going down by getting a h** like rihanna more people will tune in to c how Oprah has lost her mind

      • Beyonce’s Weave (& Her “HIVE” of Head-Lice) August 9, 2012

        I like how you have admitted that Rihanna attracts an audience hence your term ” Oprah doesn’t care about who she is she using ur stupid b**** to get attetion to get more viewers” end quote. This once again reaffirms Rihanna’s star power as a universal pop phenomenon.

        The fact remains Oprah chose to interview Rihanna because Rihanna has a massive global following. You have also admitted to this and I am glad you have taken note of what a universal megastar Rihanna is.

      • Blue August 9, 2012

        U know black people put their age down when traveling somewhere rihanna s from a poor family they wanted to make it do they going to have money they lied she wasn’t 16 when she moved to USA she was 20 rihanna is now 32 that’s her real age uh she looks like she had 5 kids already eeerrrrk what an ugly chick make up lies

    • That B*tch (would you like a rihfund with that)? August 9, 2012

      Rihanna is all about gimmicks boo. Take those rose colored glasses off. She changes her persona every era. She made a song with CB to get publicity. She constantly tweets photos of herself with little to no clothes, or while she’s smoking or drinking. She changes wigs to get people buzzing about her hairstyles. She has dyed her hair ever color of the rainbow. She gets numerous pointless tatoos. This bad girl act was pretty much non existent before loud. Just because someone ACTS like a bad b**** doesn’t mean they’re real.

      • Beyonce’s Weave (& Her “HIVE” of Head-Lice) August 9, 2012

        Changing her “persona” or “hair color” or whatever it is you want to call it is part of something they call “BRANDING”. Rihanna reinvents herself to cater to the marketing of her album. If you look at the GGGB era, Rihanna branded herself to the marketing of that era, RR era, she did the same, Loud era she did the same and why should she change to please you?

        She has done very well in terms of marketing and branding and if it isn’t broken……

        Rihanna is a young girl, if she wants to party and post pictures about it, how does it affect you? You don’t like her anyway and yet you are the first one to know when she posts a picture, quite an obsession for someone who doesn’t like Rihanna. Why are you so obsessed with her if you don’t like her anyway??

      • That B*tch (would you like a rihfund with that)? August 9, 2012

        Ummm no doll. I dont go on any Rihanna sites but I do go on celeb blogs where they constantly post Rihanna and her pics, tweets, or whatever other venture she’s into. Call it branding all you want but where was this bad girl when she got beat up 3 years ago? Rihanna would get beat up if she walked into some of the toughest neighborhoods in the US. Nothing wrong with branding but she is clearly trying to be someone she’s not with all this thug life BS. Lastly there is nothing wrong with her partying habbits but if thats what constitutes a real person in your book then you have a lot of growing up to do.

      • Beyonce’s Weave (& Her “HIVE” of Head-Lice) August 9, 2012

        A “real” person (in my book) is someone who stays true to herself/himself even in front of the flashing lights and rolling cameras. Rihanna is a party girl and she doesn’t hide it because she is “real”. Any girl can get beaten up by a man, what is interesting is you are condoning a man savagely beating a woman nearly to death and justify it by claiming “where was the bad girl, she is a bad girl blah blah blah”, fact remains whether she is a bad girl or not does not justify her getting savagely and inhumanely beaten by a man three times her size.

        People like you deserve a special place in hell since you condone an act where a man savagely beats a woman half to death and the worst part is you justify it. I hope no sister or mother of yours suffers at the hand of a man the way Rihanna suffered (both physically and emotionally) and people show the same lack of compassion you have shown. You are worst than trash to try and justify such a thing.

      • That B*tch (would you like a rihfund with that)? August 9, 2012

        First of all I don’t have any sisters, secondly my dad was abusive to my mom when they were married. When did I say I condoned it? I said she is trying to be someone she’s not. It’s like the equivalent of a suburban white boy acting like a ghetto gangster….pathetic isn’t it?
        Anyways I don’t care what you think of me personally, I was just stating my opinion and you can either take it or leave it.

      • Beyonce’s Weave (& Her “HIVE” of Head-Lice) August 9, 2012

        Your father was abusive and yet you show such a lack of compassion towards Rihanna’s situation at the time and post that time. You should know that even though the physical bruises heal, the emotional and psychological damage may last for years and yet you still chose to show such a lack of compassion.

        You cannot compare a “suburban white boy acting like a ghetto gangster” to Rihanna acting like a “bad girl” because Rihanna is a BRAND and the suburban white boy is not. It is like comparing apples to orange pop. If Rihanna wants to brand herself as a “bad girl”, then there is nothing wrong with that since it is the marketing strategy she is going for. This is her career and the way she and her team choose to brand and market her is her and her teams decision whether you like it or not.

      • That B*tch (would you like a rihfund with that)? August 9, 2012

        Why is it incomparable though? Both are trying to be something they’re not…similar to how Lady Gaga decided to act weird for publicity. It comes off as fake and desperate for attention.
        Anyways I am done for tonight @ Beyonce’s Weave.
        You put up a good arguement but a b**** needs her beauty rest.

      • That B*tch (would you like a rihfund with that)? August 9, 2012

        Oh one more thing, as a woman I would never wish domestic violence on my worst enemy…I was just trying to prove a point which you clearly took the wrong way.

  13. Benron (Frank SideHoeShit is whack) August 9, 2012

    I fee llike the people bashing Rihanna here need to get better. Gilberto is very biased and always focuses on the negatives but at least he spits the TRUTH, thanks for informing me about the situation with her deals and JSYK I read into it and she only had 20,000 dollars in her bank account as of the end of 08, her manager used her money to fund most things.

    But when it comes down to it, she doesent seek Fistopher’s attention, isn’t a h** and is just trying to have fun. I will say thins with no shame URBAN/BLACK blogs always tear people down, while the whites hype each other up and we folow their path like sheep.

    • Lax August 9, 2012

      BENRON Her $$$$$ was f***** up then,,,,but this is now,,,,
      How Much Is Rihanna Worth?
      How much is Rihanna worth? Rihanna’s net worth is $72 million, and from May 2011 to May 2012, the Bajan beauty earned a reported $53 million. That income was enough to land the 24-year-old singer in third place on Forbes’ list of the top earners under the age of 30. Justin Bieber just barely edged her out, earning $55 million, while Taylor Swift trumped them both with $57 million. Still, Ri beat Lady Gaga, who took in $52 million, and Katy Perry, who managed a mere $45 million.

    I like how people are reaffirming Rihanna’s star power making the claim that Oprah is “desperate for ratings”. This once again reaffirms that Rihanna attracts a massive audience and it also reaffirms Rihanna’s star power as a universal megastar. This proves that people are interested in Rihanna and once again discredits the baseless claim that “no one cares about Rihanna”.

    Obviously if no one cared about Rihanna, Oprah would not want her on her show since she is “desperate for ratings” but because Oprah knows Rihanna attracts a massive audience, she invited the megastar on her show. Keep on supporting Rihanna unintentionally haters, it just gives her and her fans more ammunition.

    Correction… People are interested in her because she got chris brown’d. That’s it. Not because of her talentless talent. She’s in the same boat as Kim Kardashian.

    Anywho, im so ready to see the interview, Ive enjoyed next chapter so far and Im sure Rihanna’s episode is going to be the best one yet. There’s no one in the world like Rihanna, it’s amazing how one women can stand out unintentionally, she’s naturally gravitating.

    Ohhhhh k

    To whomever this may concern,

    First of all Rihanna is not only successful and popular because of a tragic incident in her life that was highly publicized, Rihanna was extremely popular and even more successful before that even took place. GGGB era was the era were her name and music was everywhere and girls were imitating Rihanna’s look. The reason it was such a big deal was because of who she was RIHANNA America’s pop sweetheart. If Rihanna was just some nobody, d-list singer like a Ciara or somebody it wouldn’t have been a HUGE worldwide breaking news story.

    yall know i do this for fun right?

    and a few more altruistic reasons but here we go:

    Ghetto and poor are two different things, there is nothing wrong with being poor
    Ghetto is far worse and since in I Need a Soldier’s Case its chosen

    I blogged about that when it came out voicing concern for the harm it would cause, but anyway I digress, and wrong post

    Rihanna is Cool and I hope she can be some kind of exception but she has already done well and her country is benefitting too and that’s awesome, hopefully they will not get carried away/confused by the hip hop culture like has happened in the urban US poor areas (that are now ghettos in terms of illiteracy etc…) and progress as a people educationally, economically etc….

    Well, she speaks a whole lot better than you alls beloved BAMA BEY QUEEN OF THE HOOD HIVE (this the messy fun part)

    Anyhoo, Tootle loo and nitey nite

  24. Real Talk August 9, 2012

    Oh and her forehead is gynormous and she doesn’t hide it, shout out Rihanna for that, and people like her and think she’s pretty so one could say she has broadened the standard of beauty even though fitting into the mold in terms of light skin

    LIke my Mom says Rihanna has African features and look at her Mom, so Rihanna presents a more wholesome view of Black People than Beyonce and her Creole, We Creole, We Creole yall Mama who are doing the whole pinched nose thing

    Some even saying hiding the baby that is posting on her tonight because of its nose, so anyhoo, Rihanna is way cooler, her family too, she doing her thangy thang and I ain’t mad. IT wasn’t a calculated enterprise a la Pimp Daddy Matty, Nixon’s Dad, I am sure Ole Matty is happy to have a Son

    back on topic, everyone, well most look better with make up so point

    Beyonce is in a tailspin and Rihanna is sailing, let her enjoy her ride as she will decline, probably soon

    Solo and the rest of the Blog Team need to grow up and accept that Beyonce’s career has peaked and the CIL BB days are gone and now its Rihanna’s day in terms of popularity

      @REALTALK cosign Rih wears her Image like
      she wears her smile and she’s the real deal and for being real and down to earth even with a Big Head serves as the tonic to get the haters going after her tooth and nail, this is all so exciting and amazing at the same time to see/read.

        Hmmmmmmi I wonder what do they say about ledisi, whoopie, susan boyl, adele, jennifer hudson, jayz, lil wayne and countless others as far as their Looks go.

  25. Bey Fan August 9, 2012

    Seems kinda interesting. I never doubted the Rihanna was a sweet girl, I just hate this “bad girl” image she tries to portray.

    • Stans Make Me LOL August 10, 2012

      THANK YOU @BeyFan. She is not a bad girl, she always seems so sweet in interviews, and I think that if she acted like the “Good Girl” most of the time, she would be unstoppable, regardless of talent because its more true to her and more likeable.

  26. DIGGER BEY August 10, 2012

    DAMN! Rihoeanna got a big a*** forehead. That forehead takes up the whole pic. Im surprise she didnt fall down those stairs. Seeing her forehead weigh more than her crackish body. I know Oprah would of laughed her ass off!

  27. Arie August 10, 2012

    I am not a Rihanna fan but I am gonna add my two cents here. I think that Rihanna has a universal appeal because she celebrates her impefections, she looks like a genuine individual. People are tired and therefore are starting to realise that there is no such thing as pefect hence you see stars like Beyonce and Kim Kadashian appearing in public looking less made up.

  28. Who Are You To Judge! August 10, 2012

    I am appalled at the type of hate I see on this site against Rihanna and for what? Oprah and Rihanna are similar in that both of them became sexually promiscuous after traumatic experiences.For Oprah it was being molested and for Rihanna it was domestic violence.You never know how someone deals with the effects of that situation (Good or bad).Rihanna was already beginning to rebel on “Good Girl Gone Bad”.After the Chris Brown incident that went into full rotation.At the end of the day Rihanna and Oprah are human beings.No matter how high of pedestal they are standing on.They still have feelings just like every other living person.When I see people commenting calling Rihanna a W**** it’s pretty sad because most men in the industry are whores.ex Tiger Woods,Kobe Bryant and even former president Bill Clinton.Nobody says anything about them.It’s a double standard.If you can call a women a s*** for being promiscuous you can call a man the same.It’s no different! There is also male prostitutes just like females. Women not the only ones who do it. My thing is it you don’t have your life together then you shouldn’t be judging the life of someone else.You are not PERFECT so why do you expect someone else to be.

    Beyonce Knowles
    One of the most popular R&B singers at present, Beyonce is also a songwriter, actress and fashion designer. She is estimated to have a current net worth of $390 million primarily on account of the 13 million albums that she has sold worldwide and the nearly 36.4 million singles that she has sold in United States alone. Beyonce started her career as the lead singer of the band Destiny’s Child in the late 1990s and then went on to make her solo debut with the album Dangerously in Love.
    Despite the success of Destiny’s Child, Beyonce was believed to struggle with depression for almost two years around 2000. Part of it was caused by attacks on her media for causing the split between LeToya Luckett and LaTavia Roberson and partly by her own split from her boyfriend of many years. After emerging from her depression, Beyonce entered into a relationship with rapper Jay Z. After six years of dating, Beyonce and Jay Z got married in April 2008 in New York City.
     She has sold 75 million albums copies and 100 million single include DC sales world wide.

      BLUE Yo ass can keep calling RIHANNA names all you please and
      you will never be able to blow her CAREER house down…
      “That Rihanna reign just don’t let up”, a prophecy that holds truer than ever as we reflect on the last year in the superstar’s record-breaking career. 2011 saw Rihanna continuing to sell millions upon millions of albums, receiving a flurry of prestigious awards, dominating the airwaves with her smash singles, gracing covers of magazines around the world, embarking on a massive international tour spanning over a hundred cities, lending her iconic brand to several billion dollar cooperation campaigns, and still managing to find time to record yet another album filled with a collection of songs that have Rihanna fans gitty with excitement as to what 2012 can only bring. Rihanna has become the rare form of pop star that has managed the seemingly impossible act of, not only maintaining, expanding her popularity and quality as the years of her reign accumulate.

    I believe the media and the mainstream audience will tune in because they want to hear about the incident with Chris Brown and where they are at now. Oprah never got a chance to interview Rihanna after the 2009 incident. But this should be very interesting.

  31. jay August 10, 2012

    she better not talk about chris brown.

  32. CHUA August 10, 2012

    Man Oprah really needed those ratings! This looks like what Nicki did for MTV; when she went back to Trinidad and took her extended/distant family members on a shopping spree! LMAO!
