Behind The Scenes: Rihanna – ‘Rogue’

Published: Tuesday 17th Sep 2013 by David

Talk of a new album may be heating up this month, but it seems all roads to lead to ‘Rogue’ for Rihanna, the star behind the brand new fragrance.

Now available to purchase in the US, the perfume welcomed the unveiling of behind the scenes footage lifted from its ad today- giving a fly on the wall experience to any interested in its conception!

Rihanna at work below…

Random: Isn’t it interesting that it’s Rihanna’s Urban cuts (‘Love Song’ / ‘Pour It Up’) that stand as this era’s sleeper hits while the radio ready ‘Right Now‘ struggles to match them commercially.

Interesting, as ‘Now’  is a bigger hit on paper, but seems to be a little too generic for Joe Public to get into without prompting.

Your thoughts?

    i dislike rihanna.. BUT fuckkkkk! she looks amazingly gorgeous there <3 nice riri

    • etone…the original…. September 17, 2013

      you dislike Rihanna but you listen to gangsta rap.

      maybe if Rihanna was cut throat or an industry thief you’d like her more you seem to have respect for people like that.

  2. SLAY_HIVE September 17, 2013

    I’m pretty sure it stinks!

    • etone…the original…. September 17, 2013

  11. Rita ORA WILL BE DROPPED: she is DONE! September 17, 2013

    Breaking news!!!!!!!!! RIh might have recorded the ” monster ” hook for Adele. There is meant to be a song that adele is dropping on 28 / 9 called loved the lines or something. Rih ruled out GAGA.

    Breaking news!!!!!! NEW RIHANNA lyrics:

    ” All i want is, nothing more
    I dont know why they been lying, but yo s*** is not that inspiring
    it’s yours…..nobody else’s
    guess whose it is
    dont think about it too much
    too much, too muuuccch”

    • Drew September 17, 2013

      Omg do you ever stop lying! The other day you said it was Gaga! Adele would never! She would more likely have Beyonce since she stans for her.

      • Rita ORA WILL BE DROPPED: she is DONE! September 17, 2013

        I am going , on what the word of the street is. Adele was just in the studo last night. Anyway, it will be a big act and big song. It will be bigger than any beyonce song too. Whoever it is, it will slay up global charts and help solidify rihanna’s status as legend. THAT U CANNOT DENY.

      • Rita ORA WILL BE DROPPED: she is DONE! September 17, 2013

        HOW the f*** do u know what adele? She might want a new sound, and working with Rih, would be that. There is no snobbery in the music game. Just cos u think rih is wack, does not mean sony and adele do. SONY tried to sign rih! All the labels did.

      • Drew September 17, 2013

        @37k Not relevant to my comment but Beyonce does not stan for Rihanna lol. But we all know Rihannas ‘greatest idol is Beyonce’

      • Drew September 17, 2013

        @Sybil but you said it was already ‘confirmed’ with Gaga. What happened there boo?

      • 37kara September 17, 2013

        Yes she does and you will deal. Just because you hate Rihanna doesn’t mean that Beyonce hates her too. And there is not official confirmation for these rumours, they are made up by stans, not by Rihanna.

      • Drew September 17, 2013

        You’re delusional. Just because she said she was talented to be polite doesnt make her a stan. Ultimate death. And I dont hate Rihanna actually. Cant stand her trolling stans like this one.

    • soundwiser September 17, 2013

      so dumb. aren’t those all drake’s lyrics? *facepalm*

      • Rita ORA WILL BE DROPPED: she is DONE! September 17, 2013

        My bad, if it is. Adele rumors still floating around. Something is going down.

      • Rita ORA WILL BE DROPPED: she is DONE! September 17, 2013

        Gaga, adele, Em or Katy. No matter who it is, it wil destroy beyonce. HA. HA.

        Who cares who beyonce stans for? Mariah and madonna are Rih’s greatest idol. Rih has surpassed beyonce; she is now teh most famous black singer.

  12. Rita ORA WILL BE DROPPED: she is DONE! September 17, 2013

    UK pop acts do not have longevity. I just copied and paste this from another blog and it tells compelling picture of the fate of Rita WHORA.

    hy are 2010-2011 UK artists underperforming this year?
    Not all of them of course, but a lot of artists that smashed the UK charts in 2010 – 2011 are kinda underperforming this year Some examples:

    2011 was Example’s year in the UK… 2 #1 singles and his first #1 album. But in 2013, his new single “All The Wrong Places” failed to enter top 10 last week… a very radio friendly song that missed the top 10

    In 2011 Jessie J had a lot of big hits in the UK (some of them even worldwide hits). This year Jessie J just released 2 singles, and, they didn’t really underperformed, but they weren’t “big” hits either, just like “Price Tag”.

    The same that Jessie J. 2010 was Tinie’s year, multiple hits like “Written In The Stars” or “Pass Out”, but this year “Trampoline” was forgotten very quickly.

    In 2010 Katy B was the queen of the dubstep music, really catchy bops that were hits in the UK but this year… “What Love is Made Of” missed the top 20

    In 2011 Professor Green had his first #1 in the UK, a great year for him… but this 2013 the first single from his new album, Are You Getting Enough?, just failed in the charts…

    And I’m sure there are more examples…. why are they underperforming?
    Their music went bad? or the UK forgets quickly their “local” artists.

    THIS WILL BE THE FATE OF RITA ORA. UK likes to buld them up, then knock them down. RITA IS ALREADY HATED IN THE UK, for reasons other than trying to be rihanna.

    This is so old…late just like the stans who have a hard time dealing on here..its ok…her fragrances ….well anything with her name on it does very well…….The juice is dying for a new snippet or something from Ri so bas…even they are tired of the garbage being pushed out lately…..she is winning….you mad? 1-800-jus-deal.

    • Rita ORA WILL BE DROPPED: she is DONE! September 17, 2013

      There is a lot of juice:

      The ” monster ” hook

      What now video, being filmed inAsia

      Styled to rock, next month

      3rd collection for Rihver Island

      Movie, next year – leading lady role

      Glamour mag cover for november

      Cameo in ASAP’s ‘ fashion killa ‘

      • Rita ORA WILL BE DROPPED: she is DONE! September 17, 2013

        All THIS WHILE SHE IS ON TOUR. When will beyonce, rita whora , Ciara, has this work ethic.

  15. Drew September 17, 2013

    She looks nice here!

  16. Rita ORA WILL BE DROPPED: she is DONE! September 17, 2013

    Rih is on set, in Hong Kong, filming ‘ what now video ‘ All this, while opening the new MAC store; slaying her sold out asian leg; filming a cameo for ASAP ROCKY’s ‘ fashion killa ‘ ; recording a ” monster ” hook for An A list singer, she is fan of. Not to mention, she flew to London to tape Alar Carr and launch her clothing line.

    And u wonder why she will be a legend in years to come? Peep the work ethic; she has her hands in many pies and she is slaying like a m***********. Everything she touches turns to gold. All beyonce has, is A TOUR. What else does BEY HAVE GOING ON?

    While RIH is working to be a legend – the most powerful black female of all time; the second most famous black singer, after MJ.

    So, where is that so called, amazing, much prettier, much better singer, who had more number 1’s of her debut than Rihanna? She is in LA, tweeting about Calvin makin her omlette, and going to the weekend ‘s show. This, after she was partying at NY fashion week, where she performed, a cover of drakes new song, at the DKNY show. Before that, she was in vegas, at the mayweather fight and partying at Hakkasan.

    You do know, Rita has been recoding her album since January, and her single was meant to be out in September, with the LP coming before Xmas.

    I told u, last year, U will be sorry for what u said about Rih. Your buddy, Rita WILL BE DROPPED AND NEVER SEEN AGAIN.

    • . : : h 2 o : : . September 17, 2013

      Death @ Rihanna being the biggest Black artist since MJ.

      Even Beyonce, who’s ahead of her (at everything but whatever costs $0-1.29, like singles, vevo views, etc) and I’d never say that pure b*******.

  17. Savannah September 17, 2013

    The only celebrity fragrances I’ve purchased were Britney’s “Fantasy” and Jessica Simpsons. I’m a Jimmy Choo girl myself, but ill check it out. I didn’t care for her last perfume, but the Rebel one was nice.

  18. RIHANNA SOLD HER TICKETS FAIR AND SQUARE September 17, 2013

    Rihanna was not called out for stealing for her Diamonds tour.

    Beyoncé stole costumes from Jennifer Lopez Dance Again World Tour 2012.

    Every last costume JLO wore was duplicated for the Mrs. Carter rip off tour.

    …youtube Jennifer lopez world tour 2012 Madrid….

    even the white afro wig and white flowing dress used for beyonces intro was ripped from Jennifers intro.

    Rihanna Tour was flawless and fair.
    Beyonces Tour was Fake and fraud.

    • Lovebird (Prism – 10.22.13) September 17, 2013

      I have been saying it for a long time, Beyonce is a thief, once a thief, always a thief.

      • Drew September 17, 2013

        Kim Burse. Try again Etone.

    • . : : h 2 o : : . September 17, 2013

      Unless ……….

      Rihanna
      – Always canceling / getting late for shows
      – Pretending to be sick, only to get caught partying or bullying C-error
      – Serving Z-grade lipsynched performances
      – Hitting her fans with the mic
      – Calling them “b******”

      Rihanna Navy, paying $80 a ticket

      – Booing at her
      – Shouting Beyonce’s name (who’s outgrossing her) at her own concerts
      – Throwing food and s*** on stage
      – Dragging her on Twitter for dear life

      I mean Cubic Zirconia is truely Rihanna’s most disastrous tour to date ….. and yet, is flawless and fair?

      • Ball So Hard September 17, 2013

        H20 You are too invested in Rihanna hate !! Free yourself hun and live your Life!

      • Yaz September 17, 2013

        Stop being a hypocrite. The original commentator did the same!

  19. Lovebird (Prism – 10.22.13) September 17, 2013

    People were making fun of River Island but Rihanna’s collection is selling for $100 to $400 dollars, and is selling out fast. H&M on the other hand is budget clothing and they are still struggling in the sales department, even after booking Beyonce.

    • Savannah September 17, 2013

      I highly doubt that H&M is struggling in the sales department, and if they are it has nothing to do with Beyonces brief campaign. Receipts?

    • Drew September 17, 2013

      H&M will always be above River Island even if they are struggling though!

    • Loyalty September 17, 2013

      Lies detected.

    • Ball So Hard September 17, 2013

      River Island is more high end than H&M tbh. H&M is above forever 21 though but BELOW Rihanna Island!

      • Yaz September 17, 2013

        WRONG! H&M is a WW chain. River Island could never be higher its is just the UKs version of Wet Seal.

  20. Lovebird (Prism – 10.22.13) September 17, 2013

    Budweiser is actually using Rihanna whereas PepsiCo has forgotten Beyonce exists. Hell they used Nicki Minaj more than they use Beyonce. Beyonce only has a tour, that’s it.

    • Drew September 17, 2013

      We all know JAY Z is the reason she has that busweiser deal tho.

      • Lovebird (Prism – 10.22.13) September 17, 2013

        He’s her manager, it’s his job. I’m failing to see the point or problem here.

      • Drew September 17, 2013

        Ohhh so now you want to talk about Mr. Beyonce being her manager and having big impact on her career. No problem for me. Thats the whole point.

      • Lovebird (Prism – 10.22.13) September 17, 2013

        Did I mention big impact in her career? Show me where I said that.

      • Drew September 17, 2013

        You dont need to say it. The proof is in the pudding.

      • Lovebird (Prism – 10.22.13) September 17, 2013

        Not at you making up things I didn’t say. Saying he’s her manager is not the same as saying big impact in her career. Why do Beyonce fans find easy things difficult to understand? I don’t get it.

      • Drew September 17, 2013

        Like i said… Proof is the pudding. How can you admit hes her mager and hes doing his job, but yet dont want to admit this means his impact is REAL. If hes doing his job, then it is. Sorry accept it.

      • Drew September 17, 2013

        manager*

    • Drew September 17, 2013

      And no Pepsi havnt forgot lol. They’re sponsering her Tour how can they? Budweiser sponsering Rihanna? Has she even got a sponser?

      • . : : h 2 o : : . September 17, 2013

        No.

  21. Rihboy September 17, 2013

    Dont worry your faves will be put on block again…..Rih endorsing so much…and still effortlessly slays charts…….so those saying she is flopping…or calling her songs generic…locate your nearest seat..and have it……when your fave has a show, clothing line,make up line, fragrance, top grossing albums, alot of number one singles, a great tour…than we can have conversation.

  22. Drew September 17, 2013

    But I love the shade Stevie Nicks is throwing ‘Beyonces great. Shes got her alter ego, but Beyonce the girl, the woman, is very sweet and nice and polite. Shes a good role model. Shes not skanky. Im glad we have her’.

  23. S****** Blonde September 17, 2013

    She’s gorgeous.

  24. Violets and Rose September 17, 2013

    D***!

  25. Zara September 17, 2013

    What’s up with her new era? She totally ignored Unapologetic! I wanted Jump, Half Of Me & Lost In Paradise to be singles

  26. Loyalty September 17, 2013

    Oh @Lovebird. The Irony of your comment about H&M! Look what just came out!

    H&M on the rise during August

    .

    HIGH street clothes giant H&M yesterday beat expectations to deliver like-for-like sales growth of four per cent for August in stores open at least one year.

    The retailer, which has lucrative clothing tie-ups with stars including Beyonce, saw shares jump to a record high after reporting total sales were up 14 per cent in local currencies in August.

    Sales excluding VAT came to 32bn Swedish kronor (£3bn) between June and August.

    Clothing retailers have had tough times in Europe as consumers have been reluctant to spend in the face of economic uncertainty.

    Shares closed up four per cent at 259.20 kroner.
