*********************

We can’t knock Ms. Fenty. She slyly attempted to take a “break” this era, yet the so-so sales of ‘Talk That Talk’ likely served as the biggest of reality checks for both her and her team. Indeed, her McMusic alone isn’t enough to mobilize her cause – hence touring, however awful she is live – is much more a “must” than it may seem on the surface.

Anyway…the title of the tour is “interesting”. By our Rihanna handbook, she’s pretty much “due” for a new album…now. And with this week ushering in the debut of a new hair do and now a tour, we’d put good money on it coming sooner rather than later.

Seven projects in seven years? Overkill?

    I hope it’s better than her VMA’s performance. And I’m not even shading her, it’s the truth! She has loads of great songs to perform, but she needs her actual skills to be on the same level as the music. Hope she brings it :)

      You are sick mentally ill shit. I read that you thought Rih would not win any WMA; that she ignore rita Ora and karma will find her? What the hell do u / rita ora / TGJ have against Rih?

      You, ritaoraunited, ultimateritaora , ritaoarpromo etc are all sick and twisted. I have even watched you on twitter, harass and stalk American Rdaio dj’s. Practically blackmailing them to play her wack songs. I have watched u on twitter try to start a war with Rihanna – accusing her on doing things to that z list hag! WTF

      You people are fucking. sick. The good, sales do not lie and Rita Ora is on the train to getting dropped, and once she is…..you will all fade away like dirt.

      Difference being Mariah released great material, some of it timeless while working non stop and being a part of her projects, songwriting and all. And yeah not as many as one per year.
      Rihanna needs it to not lose the radio friendly thing an artist looses once they dissapear for a while. Cos if it wasn´t for the heavy radio airplay and the generic crap songs producers make for her, she would be nothing. She can´t stop

  • where the arenas at? LOL THAT IS A JOKE. Rihanna needs the money bitches. She is not on tour this year which means she will not be making pass 20 milli this year. SAD. This is her only big income cause her record sales and performance finances are taken away from her. Don’t be mad. TTT was a fail. She didn’t get any awards and no hioghlights. Well do rihanna era ever have highlights? plus she doesn’t do any work, her directors and producers are now bursting their asses out to make some money for their families.
    The puzzling thing is after seeing her perform on these award shows, she isn’t worthy of going to see live. She needs to take her ass out and learn how to dance, work on her voice and learn something apart from social media. soemthing that will bring money in her pocket.
    Album #7 lets go.

    • get a life you ugly tart. She has won a lot of awards.
      Rihanna Best International Female – NRJ Music Awards
      Rihanna Best International Female Artist – BRIT Awards
      2 Grammys and so many…
      You are so annoying with your hatred for Rihanna. She can have less talent than your favourite but she is still winning. TTT was certified platinum by its shipments, and it will pass 1 million this week, and it’s still selling. Your opinion is shit and hoe you will deal.

      • What a dumb bitch you are Kimberhoe! I guess you aren’t smart enough to look at the Itinerary and see all the Arenas Rihanna will be performing. I guess you’re used to your fav performing in middle school gymnasiums, or at truck stop parking lots… It makes sense..

      • TTT was a flop compared to LOUD and GGGB. I mean it would have taken her sooner to be platinum in the U.S. No one was feeling this era except people who are rly into urban pop. Her core fanbase. It’s been a terrible year for her. Nothing but facts. Yall must be from the UK cuz her music is irrelevant to everyone else here in the US. And has been since 2010.

      Kelly you are one miserable bitch. Exactly why I call this fanbase ghetto because people such as you try so hard to act like bey has all the ghetto fans. You go trolling everyday pressed about Bey. Lets not get it twisted that Bey is a triple threat in the industry and been for awhile. Bey doesnt have to worry about any other female in the business. you are so jealous of Bey you try to downplay her success. How funny because Rihanna loves Beyonce and Bey loves Rihanna. So hoe go find some seats to sit in and listen to DIVA

      • You are hating ass bitch. Trick I have an interview where Rih says tin 2007 in allure that her and beyonce are NOT friends friends. They are not close. I am sure beyonce is the reason why they are not close. Rih is a tripe threat too, hoe. She is an actress, model and singer. Fuck outta here.

        You are jealous that my fellow tall green eyes slin girl lew your old fat bitch out the water in 4 years. The moment GGGB dropped, oldyonce has been weakening. Sit down hoe, Rih is the number 1 black girl in the game.

        Oldyonce needs to lose weight and have botox – she is huge!

    • kelly you are a damn idiot:

      if you want t stan for Rhi by all means go ahead. You can spend all your money on her..that’s fine boo. It doesn’t change the fact the she has low self esteem, no confidence, no pride, no talent and no self respect. I really don’t care how many awards she takes home, how many magazine covers or how many millions…I do not wish to be her. As a STRONG WOMAN, women like her are worse than cockroaches. They are the reason a lot of men feel they have the right to belittle women. STAND UP FOR SOMETHING!!!! It was disgusting to watch her behavior with CB (and I do like him alot). The man has a woman…at what point do you start behaving like you actually LOVE yourself?

        No cares about beyonce, hence why she has not had a hit in years.

        PS: On a lighter note, Rihanna looked very tall and slim and toned on the red carpet. Best dress of the night. It was about Rih, last night.

        Its obvious you are just a baby c*** so let me drag you like one. Beyonce name lives in your mouth so it is noticed that your pressed. Maybe you want to be a fan but jealousy holds you back. If you stan for rih show it without always bringing up Beyonce. If Beyonce was there last night she would have took over and you know it. Have a good day bitch and take your meds

      • I am jealous of beyonce because I wanted to be a fan, but I can’t? That does not even make sense, c***. Nothing is stoping buyin her music. I used to be a fan, but now I do not buy her music – same with many others, hence why 4 flopped and there was not a single no1 from that LP.

        If beyonce was there, she would remind the world how much fatter, older and unfashionable she is. She is older than Rih; she is fatter and she knows about fashion. So she would of taken over nothing. What song would she have perfORMED? Who run the world? That flopped – nobody cared.

        You need to join, your girl Beyonce in a zumba class and shift al that fat from your upper arms.

Not even CB which is why he stays parading with KT while R cries over him. No man wants a woman like like. Needy, trashy, low self esteem.

        Rihanna will not get or unfashionable when she is older. Rih is genetically tall and slim. Beyonce is genectically fat – even in DC back in 96, she was a big girl, in texas they call it thick in showbiz it is fat.

        Style does not age…look at Iman 56, Halle 46 etc all older,stylish and slim. Rih will age like them.

        Out of Rihanna, zoe saldana. halle, thandie newton, naomie harris the back bond girl naomi campbell, tyra, ciara, kerry washington LOL LOL Beyonce is the fattest black celebrity.

    • OK Kelly,
      you are too dumb to talk to so this is my last response to you. Tyra Banks did get fat BTW. Adele is quite big but that doesn’t stop her being a force to be reckoned with. You don’t seem to be capable of understanding. No one is denying that Rhi dresses well when styled, has catchy songs that song writers and producers work hard to give her, has an excellent management team..we all get that. What you need to understand is that yo girl is nothing but a mirage. She has no self respect, no pride, no self esteem, no talent, no self love. You can stan for her and that is fine but just accept that you are stanning for a mirage. No one is jealous of her. We all see her for what she is and it is nothing to be jealous of. We find it hilarious that her stans don’t even know her, you all stan for something you don’t know. I don’t know your age but I am assuming you are old enough to have a boy friend. Would you act that stupid over an ex? Even if you still felt some love, would you parade it like that knowing he is with another woman, banging another woman, sleepin gin the arms of another woman. Only a worthless woman behaves like that..sorry to break it to you and men DO NOT respect women like that…that is exactly why CB will beat her ass but not touch KT. Men know the type of woman they can do crap with, you better believe that!!

    Let me put it this way. If Rihanna actually had a stronger voice/talented, wasn’t lazy about rehearsing and practicing, was more intelligent, controlled her own distribution artistry/creativity in the music industry plus could sell albums and singles I think she’d be PERFECT. But unfortunately it’s the opposite. The navy wonder why she gets the most hate out of every other artist. Be real with yallselves. If she’s hated on something is MISSING from the puzzle, mmmmkay??

  • It is a bit stupid to call Talk That Talk a flop. It’s sold over 3 million in a year. I don’t think any other albums, apart from Adele, have sold more than 3 million since TTT was released. Possibly One Direction? I don’t know. You people on this site think everrrything is a flop and really don’t seem to get the whole concept of album sales generally being in decline.

    Report this comment

    • That is what I am saying…the whole music industry has been in decline since 1999. Downloading is to blame. Even Eminem last LP has not sold as much as His huge sellers, but, all they wanna do is blame it on rih.

      At least she is on the chart, where the fuck are their faves on the chart? When did beyonce last have a number smash?

    • TTT in the UK as of dec 2011 it has gone double platinum in just a few months since it was released. 600k sold. Rita ora won’t have that – she only opened with 41k.

      Rih is just 10k of platinum in the USA.

      TTT was number in 10 countries and charted in 27 countries. Platinum in 8 countries ( including 3 x time platinum ) Gold in 9 countries – including the USA.

      WHYB has sold a million copies in the USA and is platinum in over countries, gold in even more

      WFL was a monster – monster video and smash

      Can Rita sell like TTT? Will she sell like that 7 yrs on? Rih is still selling nearly 10 yrs on

    This girl needs to stay put and actually earn her money. Just showing up is getting old now. She’s done it for 7 years. She has little control over her career and I cannot wait for the day that is coming very soon,’ she’ll get interviewed and told how basic she is compared to the level her ‘records’ make her out to be… well apart from the records we all know about :

    1. Most drugs by a female artist under 30
    2. Most albums talking shit for a female under 50 (Madonna has the over 50′s title)
    3. Most fans on social media platforms who love you so much they can’t be arsed to buy your nasty albums.
    4. Most black dicks dipped for an female in the music and film industry.
