Rihanna‘s ‘ANTI’ has been rocked by more bad news.
The gifted Pop royal made headlines when reports emerged that she was having difficulty filling the venues she’d enlisted to deliver her new world tour.
This, according to some critics, is the reason she has now postponed several of its dates and-rather unfortunately- been forced to cancel two British dates.
Sunderland’s Stadium of Light and Cardiff’s Principality Stadium both been pulled from the Anti tour.
But her Coventry date at Ricoh Arena will still go ahead although it has been rescheduled from 14 June to 25 June.
Fans who purchased tickets for the shows will be refunded.
Priceless
The Formation Tour’s impact has put a nail in the Anti Tour coffin…. and that’s without an album.
Or those number ones the navy brag about.
DEATH!!! They even promoted Beys tour in their Rifunded fRihanna Rihscheduled date “WE STILL HAVE AN EXCITING SUMMER OF EVENTS PLANNED AT THE STADIUM OF LIGHT HOWEVER. INCLUDING THE SELL-OUT BEYONCE CONCERT WHICH EVERYONE IS LOOKING FORWARD TO”!! SCREAMING!!!!!! ??????????????????
Watch Beyonce fill im those cancelled dates KIIII!!!!
Omg I just died at this comment! ????
Work is #4 on the hot 100… Does that count for anything??? These comments live for chart positions lol… Damn Riri, I still love you tho…
Bc of drake and streams
Ummmm you do know that Drakes ONLY number one song is “What’s My Name”, right?? Lol
????
She is over. Not even artpop and 4 flopped this hard
4 didn’t flop though. I mean yeah it underperformed, but it still went Platinum.
No she’s not. She just needs to release new music and forget Anti ever happened. That album had potential but it was full of samples. Overall it felt lazy.
She needed Def Jam to help A&R her album.
What does Jayz know about pop & rnb?
She knew he wasn’t the one that A&R’d her albums at Def jam anyway except the debut album and that album only went gold.
Jayz probably locked her down for 4 or 5 albums ………… BAD MANAGEMENT.
Her best bet now would be to get Troy Carter or Ant Demby to manage her.
Sad.
Troy carter would be a good person to manage her cause most of the artist he manages are having very successful careers. deb antney I don’t think she’s a good fit. She doesn’t have the resources to manage the career if somebody that is on that mainstream level
I’m going to come out and say it,the navy ain’t loyal.Look even I am going to confess,some of the songs my favs release are not my taste considering heavy beats literally affect my head and ears but this is ridiculous.So you guys supported Rih when she had hits but now you are MIA.Where is the loyalty and Iam not throwing shade.Even tho I may tgink that my fav just released the worst thing damn right I will still buy the merch.
Are you serious? Rihanna doesn’t care about the Navy. Why should they support her when she keeps disappointing them over and over. You need to wake up and smell the coffee. Rihanna does notcare about her fans. She just want you guys money
Disappointments are the story of my life but that doesn’t mean you give up on the person.If I gave up on my favs because they did something disappointing I would have 2 names instead of 5 in my name because at some point they messed up really bad.The thing is I don’t believe you give up on people even in their worst,no matter how they treat you you can keep going back in honour of the good times
I always thought Rihanna needed to eat some humble pie… But bloody hell this tew much ?? I can’t deal…. Her unexplainable silence and disappearance from the public is not helping things either, we all know she is not sick so that excuse is lame. She should release the work video, then maybe work on a re-release of Anti with better songs.
Biitch
Better songs? How about completed songs? Consideration, James Jount, Higher, Gotham nights, pose (which I LOVE) were all snippets that could’ve been made much better had she gave a damn. This was “My first demo” quality.
She’s probably just really upset w/ her label.
She just needs to do a few UK & US TV performances of Needed Me & Work,
tour the concert dates she currently has left,
not add anymore tour dates,
take her L, and move on to the next era after she gets new management. lol .
Did y’all know that Beyonce was back??? Why are we still talking bout Rihanna?? So doesn’t care about her fans, career, or anything else to me she’s just another social media chick now!
U black biitch
She’s not back on the billboard charts.
In the words of Kanye West: Rihanna Doesn’t Care About The Navy
This is getting messier than a drunk white girl at a frat party. Now Rih, don’t fvck with that Miami date or your throat is going to have bigger issues than “bronchitis”
I heard they were rescheduled to June, time will tell. I think they’ll be added back.
Good luck booking that stage you speak of. Karma is a b**** isn’t it?
Except Rihanna has got no problems booking a stage
She just has a problem showing up on stage…
When she is ill as any normal human being, yes. Otherwise she still shows up
Yep Cinnamon Girl,Rih don’t got a problem booking stages here,she just got a problem filling em up..«sips juice»
Kiiiiiiiiiiii!
Which is worse lmao Ciara be doing one show for a Milli overseas
I’m just want to say this… Rihanna has 13 number one singles in the United States. This just goes to show that the number of number one singles you have is d*** near irrelevant. In all honesty, her legacy will be determined years from now. I just think it’s a bit ironic. Beyonce has been talked about for years about her lack of presence on the billboard Hot 100. Yet she’s selling expensive tickets at a faster rate that Rih. Beyonce has yet to release and album, yet people are buying tickets to see her show. It just seems like Rih has been invested in the wrong person things lately. She needs to focus on making music. That’s it.
She don’t have a legacy cyndi Lauper who I love and Kylie are seen as madonnas lessors doesn’t matter the sales it’s about resilience
I LOVE RIHANNA but Baby Girl is starting to worry me a little. There is something very wrong here!!!
She just… doesn’t seem fully “there” this era and I don’t know why.
TMZ just released a video of her leaving a sinai medical centre (by herself) and there was just no expression on her face – she was just blank and, frankly, looked quite sad. I wonder if she truly is sick or if there is an underlying illness somewhere? Hmmm. I hope not… GOD! 🙁
.
Good news though, her fashion line is being praised by various fashion critics. Giorgio Armani attended her PUMA show and said he “loved” the line.
Also, WORK is now #1 on U.S streaming and #2 on Digital songs/ITunes!
I low key think they are hiding Riri’s breakdown. She’s been working non stop since 05 album after album, tour after tour. Her ice cream cart carrying days seem to be here or approaching. I’m not worried though, because she’s Rihanna. She has the ability to stand strong for this long, she’ll be ok.
She needs to scrap the entire tour, close out this era with the work video release and just come back in November with something else.
I really feel like she doesn’t want this anymore.
She likes the clothes and money to buy weed.
But we all know touring isn’t her thing, Leave that to the queen? (Beyonce).
I’m still hoping she pops up and starts a new tour or something she needs to come on
Ya, Work is back at #2 on US iTunes, she needs to drop the video today so it goes #1 next week on the Hot 100
Looks like Mean Girl Riri is getting a taste of her own medicine
If you mean getting hits, yes
I can’t breathe. The floppage is real in these anti streets!?
Exactly! And I don’t feel sorry for her a## either. Her and the navy were feeling tthemselves for a long time. That’s what they get
Yes sis! Rihanna has always been an evil cocky b****** and her fair weather fans are delusional. She deserves this and I wanna smear the humble pie all over her deformed ass face.
Also… I ain’t gon’ lie…
I’m not liking the way the media is treating both Beyonce right now too.
I know that Bey. is WINNING with the sales of her upcoming tour and it just may be her highest grossing ever but the backlash she’s receiving from certain journalists/outlets in regards to her SB performance, the constant protests and upcoming planned boycotts of her shows… It’s all too damn much!
Yes, Bey. is on TOP and is an icon with a 20+ year legacy but she’s still a BLACK WOMAN! If they can turn against M.J, Whitney, Janet etc. they can turn against and ruin Beyonce. No questions asked! Madonna did a lot of shīţ in her day and she is my ALL TIME FAVE POP STAR and but she was still a WHITE woman.
I hope all of this doesn’t affect her album sales this time round etc.
.
Ima pray for them both!
Well at least people will get their money back. I think she will add back the dates but she’ll do arenas instead
I definitely feel like you are one of the more “unbiased” hive members here and you’ve spoken well of Rih. in the past too, if I’m not mistaken, even if you’re not a huge fan so what do you think is going on with her?
Her silence and disappearance thus era?
Of course, this era isn’t an absolute failure but it certainly is probably her most underwhelming to date in terms of promotion, marketing and her overall presence to push it along.
Thank God for the success that is WORK and her recent plaques for her digital sales in the U.S and WW; gettinf her 2nd #1 album etc. but… WTF is happening, sis? Real talk! :/
Good luck booking that stage you speak of….
.
.
What goes around comes back around.I bet it sucks to be you right now
I’m not a Rih Stan and I will DRAG but fuqqq – I hope all is okay with rih. Some BS is popping off behind the scenes and it’s getting a little frightening. Is she okay?
Nah Beyonce deserves the backlash, only now she has remembered she is a black woman?
‘
Come on now, this is the same woman who has been walking around with a blonde wig since DC and wished she was Latina (to the point of swagger jacking J.No No).
‘
Beyonce jumps on any political issue that is “in season”. She doesn’t care about Black issues, it’s all a gimmick.
“Wished she was Latina ” and how did you come to that conclusion?
http://www.tmz.com/2007/09/08/beyonce-im-just-jealous-that-i-wasnt-born-latina/
Oh please. Rihanna is over. She cannot fill out stadiums anymore. People are getting tired of gher ratchet a## and you’re the only ddelusional fool that keeps supporting her
You said the same thing about Diamonds world tour and that sold out, change the record
Backlash? Some b*** hurt middle aged white peoole clearly hasn’t stopped Beyoncé shine AT ALL! Tour selling like hot cakes. You just salty Anti-tour and album is flopping only person having backlash is the one who can’t sell out those stadiums and now has to “humble” her self and move to arenas lol!
Anyone, literally anyone can sell out a tour after a Superbowl performance, that’s why she announced it after that and not before.
‘
Secondly, it is not just white people angry with Beyonce, it is police officers and last time I checked, there are black officers too.
‘
Lastly, why would anyone believe the other lies you posted in there when you lied about buying Beyonce’s concert tickets.
Stop deflecting. Even you’ve been somber these past few weeks because you know your fav is crumbling right before our eyes.
Crumbling in what way? She is doing very well. She has received 2 certifications, broken more records, about to get her 14th #1, received $25 million from Samsung, her fashion line sold out, and her new one is getting lots of praise, plus Hollywood loves her too. Crumbling in what way? Come with facts.
Ciara Fans Still Don’t Have Any Room Too Speak! Your Fav Still Is A Flop, She Still Isn’t Winning….Even With Rihanna’s Messy Year, Ciara Still Is At The Bottom
Album not selling, tour dates not selling & getting canceled, three flop singles, canceled performances. I’d say she was crumbling. I see right through your b*******. Has Anti sold 200k yet?
@Im booked….Ciara never told her peers “How does it feel down there” A certain idiot did tho and now look.
But Anti has sold over 200K, it is at 315K ww is forecasted to sell another 30k – 40K this week.
‘
Now do the math or is that too difficult a subject for you.
I wonder how is she going to continue this era.
LMAO The hive more concerned about Rihanna than their fav.
‘
The era will continue just fine, Work is #4 on Billboard, #1 streaming and has had a 68% rise on radio.
‘
Anti is still in the top 10 and the tour is doing just fine.
‘
Plus her line with Puma is being praised by critics everywhere.
‘
The struggle to drag Rih is real, worry about bringing your own security to Beyonce’s concert in Miami.
If security is Beyonces biggest issue than I’ll say this your is already an a success! While some are pissing cops off the other needs more ticket sales or else all her stadiums dates will be moved to an out house oops I mean an arena.
“If security is Beyonces biggest issue than I’ll say this your is already an a success!”
‘
WTF does this sentence even mean??? This doesn’t sound coherent at all.
‘
Rihanna’s ticket sales are just fine. The fact that Beyonce doesn’t care to arrange security for her concerts shows she doesn’t care about her fans. You’re all just a means to an end to her.
‘
Well except you seeing that you lied about buying her concert tickets.
Beyonce has stadium security. The cops are the ones who don’t want to work her concerts and that’s fine. The show will go on with Beyonce. Too bad I can’t say the same about Rih##
I’m waiting for a receipt of this concert security
You worried bout Bey’s tour while rihanna is changing her stadiums to arenas lmfaooo lol girl go help you fav find her fans again.

@LB You were too busy dragging Self Titled to notice that Superpower video is like Formation the message is the same. Lool you’re so ignorant
And what is the message in Formation, please explain it to me, and please quote the lyrics in the process too
The message is “slay Trick or fet eliminated”

So no message, got it

Not a message but a prophesy….

Lol@ the stupid Navy saying we need to support black women. First of all Rihanna considers herself biracial and second of all you guys weren’t talking about supporting black women when Rihanna was making fun of Ciara, Teyana Taylor, and a young black girl. Rihanna is getting what she deserves.Now shut up and eat this humble pie
How is she over with just two cancelled date …didn’t beyonce cancel her dates too and then proceeded to fake a pregnancy and adopted the daughter of one of gay z’s mistress .
Except Rihanna has always acknowledged her heritage. Beyonce wished she was Latina. Huge difference.
‘
Oh and by the way, seeing that most Beyonce fans are ignorant, some black people in the USA are considered biracial in certain societies. The one drop rule does not apply everywhere.
But but but what about Rihanna making fun of black women on social media?
What about it? Rihanna didn’t all of the sudden sing a song about herself, try to push it as some black women empowerment and say she wished she was latina, Beyonce did.
There’s something seriously wrong in the Roc Nation camp. From when she first cancelled the VS fashion show, delay of the album, leak of the album to now this, it has been a pure and utter mess. There are some serious issues going on in the background. Never such atrocities happened at Def Jam. Roc Nation runs their company like a black owned family restaurant.
Here we go again blaming others for Rihanna’s failures. I thought Rihanna was such a boss b**** who managed her own career?
She is a boss b*tch but she doesn’t have an MBA. Any artist in modern area is a machine, and Rihanna’s is colossal. There’s probably at least 100 people who have active jobs due to Rihanna’s career alone. You know very well from the allegations from Rita to the leaking of the album, they have been extremely messy.
It’s because Roc Nation is trying to be everything to everyone. One minute they are management, next they are a record label, next they are a distributor; they don’t seem to have a core competency (another term too advanced for the hive).
‘
I think Westbury should sign a Marketing and Distribution deal with Universal.
‘
I know she is trying to be loyal to Jay but he doesn’t know what he is doing. She can keep Jay Brown though, work is doing well.
Personally, I think Jay is purposefully sabotaging her. How does your own label “leak” your album? I think Rihanna wants out of her contract from Jay Z and that never fares well for the artist. I.e Rita and Ke$ha
Roc Nation is management, so Rihanna can fire them at anytime. I just think Roc Nation is trying to do everything and Rihanna has stuck with them because she is loyal to Jay Z, Brown…etc.
@LB Wetbury Road is a subsidiary of Roc Nation; therefore, Roc Nation is her management and her label head which is a conflict of interest in the music industry. There tens of thousands of pages to the numerous contracts she has under him. Trust, it’s not that easy to get free
You’re speaking as if Rihanna has no choice over who her management team is. Yes, It is their job, but who gave them their job? If I hired a tool to run my business, and they fvcked up, Who is actually responsible? Them or me? Are you saying that Rihanna can’t even judge for herself, who she should entrust with her career? Can she not judge character, decide where she wants to go with her career, and hire on the basis of merit, someone who is apt to get her there? And as you’ve conveniently listed, there have been a plethora of mistakes made. Not one. Not two. When was Rihanna, the boss ass b****, gonna do something about it? After the 15th atrocity? 19th? Funny thing is, it isn’t over. The mistakes are still happening as we speak. A boss ass b**** would’ve nipped this in the bud after the 1st fvck up, or the 2nd fvck up. And If she had any reliable brain capacity, she wouldn’t have agreed to such stupid decisions. You don’t need an MBA for that.
The issue in being an international superstar in the music industry is vastly more complicated than being an assistant manager at your call center. Like I said earlier, there is a machine that is constantly moving, and axing someone isn’t that easy. There are numerous contracts involved which would cause litigation to “just drop the.” To sue out of one’s contract NEVER fares well for the artist i.e. Rita, Kesha, and Michael. Futhermore, Rihanna is boss as there are key things she is adequate enough to do; however, the majority are beyond her skill set. She doesn’t have an MBA or any formal education at that. It takes a team who have the skills to compliment her. Look up who Jay-Z has staffed at Tidal and Roc Nation, there are nothing but white men with degrees. Do further research and cement a deeper foundation of the music industry before you make such supercilious claims.
“She has no formal education…” Yes that’s apparent hun. ?? Anywho, I read your entire comment, and you have managed to use so many words to prove my point, that Rihanna does not have the skill set to be a boss ass b****. If you made an effort to cement a foundation in reading comprehension, you’d understand what I said, rather than expanding your original comment with more nonsense. Yes, there is a machine with several moving parts all with their own function, but Rihanna is OPERATING the machine, you idiot. That was my point. You continue to make your fave seem like a puzzle piece in someone else’s game. Death. I acknowledged the presence and necessity of other players, but a boss ass b**** has the FINAL say. She’s been in the industry ten years–many would argue to be more valuable than formal education. Your comments only make Rihanna sound stupid. I never said she needed to know everything, but your thoughts aren’t concentrated. First, You said she was a boss and then you proceeded to list reasons why she’s not. Lmfao, dead. ?
Break it all the way down for these fools!
#ANTISALES #ANTIVOCALS #ANTITALENT #ANTIACCLAIM #ANTIBIGTOUR #ANTISUCCES well all was in the album title
The Navy Should Be Happy, Now They Can Used Their Refunded Coins For A Much Better Show! I.e. The Formation Tour ?
Rihanna has been more successful than beyonce since 2005 .The only place beyonce has her beat is on touring …I give it to beyonce she is a more energetic performer but that’s about it .. Rihanna has had more hit singles sold more albums covered more magazines and topped more beauty lists …ur effort to drag rihanna is laughable at this point .
@LB Beyonce has never claimed to be anything other than Black. So according you she didn’t acknowledged her heritage but yet she married a BLACK man/ had a BLACK child and stood behind the FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT for 8 years. OK
Shame on Rih using the GRAMMYS to push this “*cough* im sick” agenda. It was a ploy to reel us in on the RIHSCEDULED & CANCELED Dates. “SLAY TRICK OR U GET ELIMINATED”. Work being a MODERATE hit means nothing if it cant sell the album or tour. Beys last released songs/singles have all been TRAP & been touring with no album out. There no excuse for why rih should be flopping at only 27 with far more radio friendly material. She cant even blame bey either cuz R8 been a flop b4 B6 even began.
“I’m just jealous that I wasn’t born Latina. I wish I had been because the culture is so beautiful.”

She could’ve been joking about that Latina comment. What about Rihanna making fun of black women? You still haven’t addressed that
She might have been jocking? Is that why she has been swagger jacking J.No No all through the late 90s and 00s….LMAO come on now, even you cannot be that naive.
Lmao, why are you trying to dispute Beyonce’s pro blackness with her comments about something that has absolutely nothing to do with race? In order for you to develop a proper point, you must first make a correlation. Race is irrelevant to being a Latina. So all you’re doing is posting facts without basis. ??? What kind of primary school teas…This moron is bringing up being Latina as if it means something. Meanwhile, your fave believes that Rachel Dolezal is a hero. This woman parades around in blackface making a mockery of black culture. And She’s Rihanna’s hero. Dead. ??
It funny you say Latina is a race and call Beyonce dumb! But in that statement you just showed, she OBVIOUSLY knew it was a CULTURE unlike your basic ass KIII IM FUXKING SCREAMING ??????????????????????? Beyonce out here unintentionally scalping Frihanna stans ???????????????
And today she is a black woman? LMAO Sure…
You are aware that a lot of Latino’s are BLACK right?
Who cares if she wishes that she was Latino! Latino is a CULTURE, not a race ya big dummy
TragicTragic. Poor LB
Random question, if Beyonce’s so called message in her new song is supposed to be about black women uniting, why do her ratchet ass fans spend so much time tearing down Rihanna and Ciara, yet keep their mouths closed and stay in their place when it comes to Adele? #ijs
Oh please. You wasn’t saying that when Rihanna was making fun of Ciara and Teyana Taylor. Save it!
Lmaooo, The Navy have been fighting fiercely to maintain their reputation as “Most Hypocritical Fanbase”. Chill Navy, you’re hypocrites. We get it!
Except it is not about black women uniting, even her fans don’t know what the message in her knew song is LMAO. They cannot explain it when challenged.
Its about how a Texas bama is proud of her roots,which part did you not get.Take that Work mess out your ears and then you will get it
Her latina roots? Is she proud of her blonde wig too?
I’m not a Rihanna fan but i do pray she pulls through this messy era, she needs to start making real music and forget about commercial music, it’s always good to see black women at the top.
Rihanna is still a MAINSTREAM, COMMERCIAL FORCE though and her success has been CONSISTENT since 2005; post-2007 especially but the past year has been underwhelming.
Also, honestly, the only area that Beyonce has a VAST MILE over Rihanna is when it comes to touring and I believe that will always remain the case.
Other than that, and the fact that Beyonce is clearly the better vocalist and overall live performer than Rihanna, their stats are pretty much EXACTLY the same through and through.
Let’s be real here… Alicia Keys and Usher (both of whom aren’t even relevant right now) have higher album sales than both Beyonce AND Rihanna and none of their albums are MAJORLY critically acclaimed unless you count ANTI and SELF TITLED.
Rihanna has – #1 singles, digital sales both domestically and globally and image eccentricity/fashion status.
Beyonce has – albums (not much though), definitely touring and live performances.
BOTH ARE RICH AS FUQ. What else?
Rumor has it that Rihanna does have an illness. But it’s not bronchitis. And she’s been secretly seeing a doctor about it for months. Did the mean girl mess around and catch the monster? Hmmmm…*sips tea*
I heard about that.
It would explain why she filmed leaving sinai medical centre several times this month and why she’s barely seen in public.
I’m not one to joke about that kind of “illness” though, it’s in poor taste but… I hope it ain’t nothing serious; what if it’s life or death though.
So now everyone should feel sorry for Rihanna? Just a few years ago you all thought it was funny when she was making fun of other black women
Or she’s pregnant, she might not even know who the baby daddy is
Tragic. so what comes after Artpop? mhhm Jazz album? maybe
This is all so tragically hilarious. ANTI is the funniest unintentional joke I’ve ever seen. Just when your temples stop throbbing from uncontrollable laughter, another sudden cream pie gets tossed at that disastrous project. Rihanna missed her calling; baby girl can’t sing a lick, but seems to have a knack for jokes.
@LB She made a remark about admiring the culture and there’s nothing wrong with that . You do realize we are talking about culture not skin color right?
Honestly I’m not saying this to start a problem because as I always state I’m not a Stan I have many favorite artists and Rihanna actually happens to be on that list and I have my copy of Anti from Tidal. It just shocks me because during Beyonce’s last tour run everyone said on this site specifically (specifically the navy) “Beyonce is local” “she can barely sell out arenas” “she’ll never sell out a stadium” and things a long those lines and it just amuses every time someone on this site talks s*** about Beyonce she proves you wrong and you still have a reason to hate it just like wtf do you want from her to turn water to wine ? You guys constantly criticize and discredit her for no reason. But on the topic of Rih I thought this would be one of her best sellers the whole Todal thing killed it and we all know this would’ve had a solid selling ground. I see what Tidal is trying to do but I hope Nicki and Bey really don’t release their new s*** as exclusives I love tidal but I be damned if I su second after this free trial. Just release the music and let us buy it. Us as fans are asking to purchase music and you guys throw it on tidal like it took Kanye’s album to even make anyone download it I’m just scared for all artists involved with Tidal exclusively releasing stuff I just need them to stop because Rih would be slaying and could be going on a press run, also performing Kiss it Better at the grammy’s would’ve put it in the top 40 that song is a real gem
She flat out said she wished she was latina, can you read?
‘
“I wish I had been because the culture is so beautiful
“
‘
Try again with the damage control please.
Get over it,I have numerous times complimented Asian girls on how preety they are and how at timesi admire their eyelashes.so what,at the end of the day I still accept myself and I am happy with it.Admiring something else does not mean you hate what you have
She didn’t just admire Latina’s, she wished she was one, which is why she has been Swagger jacking J.No No all through the 00s.
@LB Let’s talk about Rihanna calling a white woman who was pretending to be Black a Hero! Let’s talk!!!
Why? You said formation is about black women uniting and yet it had dawned on you that it was all a gimmick because your fav, who spots a blonde wig, wished she was Latina.
@LB
Bey actually LOOKS LATINA a lot of times in the face. She has that slim nose & higj eyebrow ratio thing going on like Shakira & jlo there are facial similarities esp when they all smile. Atleast bey isnt a wide nose big forhead fat drunk slob like rihfund.& not both artist POSTPONING dates on the exact same day but for the exact opposite reasons. *DYING* If this era is just as unfortunate as ROYALTY rihs next era will be JACKIE 2.0. While Bey may as well name her album 35 at this point.
Hive logic, “she is proud of her Texas roots”, shoots video in Louisiana.
‘
Can you Geography?
‘
The hive are tragic.
LOL@LB in here trying to deflect from 460’s epic crash and burn. You’re as transparent as the pitch correction used on Rih’s studio vocals.
Except there is no crash, you’re trying to invent one and failing. Just like you’re failing to explain the message of Formation.
I am a loyal member of the Beyhive but…. I have to admit, something seems to be really wrong here. I mean, let’s be real. Rihanna is great but she just isn’t Beyoncé and that’s okay! However, she is our other token black girl popstar along with Nicki Minaj. I really hope whatever is going on behind the scenes gets better. Sincerely,
I hope she’s ok.
Beyonce has always been praised the fact the she’s black. All of the artists that influence her are BLACK, she married a BLACK man/has a BLACK child. She stood behind the First Black President for god sake. You can definitely tell @LB is one of this white people angry at Formation lol
people got no money anymore? shows you that. lol 😀
@LooseBooty
Will Rihs Magic Show (Stadiums instantly transformed into arenas) Tour be Half Full or Half EMPTY??? & do u have tickets? If so u might want to start trying to get yur RIHFUND Now if The Diabetic Oracle magic ball is foreseeing things correctly #WHERESMYRIHFUND Will be trending on twitter and it wont have anything to do with taxes. #DIABETESUNBOTHERED
If I remember correctly @LB was the one of the idiots saying that Beyonce and Jay z being dressed in African clothing was Cutural Appropriation
@LB you do know that Latin is not a race. There’s black Latinos out there too
He is so dumb just like the rest of them.
Exactly. The Navy is just stupid. That’s why I call them the Rhitards
IDK why but the fact that he doesn’t know that Latino isn’t a race is really pissing me to off LMAO.
Latin Americans come in various races, just like Americans.
I hope she’s okay. There’s something weird going on behind the scenes. Ever since her messy release with the album, no video, canceling performances – something isn’t right. I just hope it isn’t a medical issue. I personally think there’s some sort of sabotage issue going on with this whole Tidal / Jay Z mess. She needs to get out of there and sign with someone who is going to promote her right – Jay Z is all about his wife at this point.
Why is it that when Rihanna fails at something you Rhitards want to point fingers at others? How about Rihanna taking responsibility for her own failures like the rest of us grown folks do?
Congratulations @LB once again you have showed everyone how stupid you are.??
Will ALLL the Stadiums be rihscehduled into arenas or just canceled? My magic ball is down at the moment due to unforeseen uncontrolable conflicts & bad KARMA. LMAO
Not LB dragging the whole 100 hive crew …shows you why the navies keep winning …just like soldiers we don’t back down when outnumbered.
That’s why rihanna will keep being successful despite all the haters that want her to fail.
I don’t see any drags just as I havent seen Rihanna on any stages. Bye.
SMDH Ok the Hive dragging Riri makes sense. B is clearly WINNING. She’s making cultural impact and selling out her venues. However, can anyone tell me why a Ciara stan is shading Riri when Ciara had to cancel the Jacko tour (2k cafeterias) and has just been dropped from her record label? Your fav has released 4 flop albums consecutively. I can’t at how you all stay throwing shade to Beyoncé and Rihanna when your fav is the biggest flop in the industry. *Beyoncé voice* How did you wake up this morning Ciara? *audience* LABELESS
Because Ciara doesn’t lie about her flops. She doesn’t make fun of her fans. She doesn’t make fun of others. She does not hit her fans with microphones. She’s not out here thinking it’s o.k. to be ratchet and rude. She’s a class act. And for the record Ciara has three separate million dollar modeling campaigns plus the second half of her tour is starting up in the summer.
Ooooh guuuuurl….Anti wasnt even released a month ago and THIS is what it’s already come to? It hasn’t even reached the FIRST WEEK numbers of Artpop or 4 and the Anti Tour will be lucky to do half of what Artrave did. And unlike Bey and Gaga Rih doesn’t have actual talent to fall back on when their albums underperform. She is being EXPOSED to the GAWDS. OUCH.
Anyway Riri, just don’t cancel Miami. Me and a few friends can’t wait to see you! Don’t cancel bih or I’ll leave the Navy!
@Loose Booty
So what if Beyonce did wish that she was Latina?
The last time I checked, Latino wasn’t a race….
It’s a culture you f****** moron. You can be black, white, mulatto,mestizo and still be LATINO!
The girl is sick, a reschedule happens. People get sick and people with jobs miss a day or two. Worry about Beyonce performing Flopmation in front of a 100 million people don’t didn’t chart. “it’s not for sale”, neither was Anti or Work, but it seem to chart at #27 and #8 off of a day of streaming. The excuses.
ANTI AND Work both for sale you idiot. ANTI was being sold through Tidal lmao. How come the rest of the navy know this and you don’t ?
Not the first week that it charted. It was only for sale for less than 2 hours, AFTER a million downloads and 14 million streams From Tidal. Isn’t Formation a Tidal exclusive? Why did one chart from Tidal streams and the other didn’t with more days and a performance in from of 100 million? And new coverage. The excuses, Beyonce can’t chart. Deal with it.
.
You know damn well Work and Anti wasn’t for sale most of the day because you clowns made fun of 420 for a week. Sit down.
Lmao bitxh!!! What part of FORMATION IS FREE don’t you get!?!?!? Work was available for streaming and purchase on Tidal and it was available on ITunes as well. The song was released a day or 2 before the album dropped. It was also released to radio and had a shít ton of radio play the first day. Stop acting like work was only available through Tidal and charted. Your full is shít!
Rih is really STRUGGLING if it takes her all of a FULL MONTH just to scan the dismal figures of UNA first week. Rih sure picked a FINE TIME to get sick. HOW CONVIENT. just goes to show that Competition DOES matter. Rih is losing MARKETSHARE To bey. The same way MYSPACE lost Marketshare to facebook. Its Ovetr for Rih! Bey finally accomplished what she set out to do with each album since Dil & thats be the last artist still standing amongst her peers. This album will be Huge, there is NOONE in sight this year no competition at all… no alicia keys britney gaga rihanna… its a desert in these streets & im living for the slayage & the meltdowns. Self titled remains the highest first week by any black female (800+k) & soon will break her own record for most consecutive #1 albums by ny female. Bey sits on… a panel with LEGENDS while rih sits at a desks with Flops right in between gaga & Cerror!
Pause y’all . It’s something serious going on . Look at the big picture, their coming for the top 2 black female artist during black history month at that. I will not shade Rihanna even though the navy dragged Beyoncé during the 4 era. It’s something going on behind the scene that will come to light. F the bs and support both black women. Hell the pilgrims support theirs.
Get better RIRI and pay the haters no damn mind Beyoncé ✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?✊?
No, I’m just gonna support Beyonce. F(u)ck a Rihanna.
Lmao
KIIIII
Anti flopped. Its tour has soft ticket sales so now she’s cancelling…err…”rescheduling” shows because of sudden (i.e. fake) illnesses. We all see what’s going on here. May as well stop fronting Navy. No one is fooled. If you’re kidding anyone, it’s only yourselves.

@hailbeysus
NOT bey selling more tickets (500k+) than rih in less than a week. Didnt tickets just go on sale the 16th? & rih tickets been out since DECEMBER & cant sell out even the arena dates. 71 stadiums & arenas was way ambitious for such a BASIC touring act. Gaga/nikki/katty could never. Formation at this rate will easily pull over $400 million compared to rihs less than $100.
Yas!!!! Oh Mighty Diabetic Oracle! What is next for Rihfunded’s messy schedule? I LIVE FOR YOUR PREDICTIONS BISH!!!! ??????
Stick a fork in Riri! She’s done!!!
Just killed another career it’s a mild day
Rihanna is a singles artist not a career artist. Meaning she is only ever as big as her newest single at the time. She doesn’t have the talent or the discipline to sustain a successful career without a hot song or two on the radio. The good news is once she gets a hot song on the radio again, the general public will probably support her again as limited as that may be. Beyonce on the other hand is a career artist and will always have our attention.
Getting my life out of watching the Navy desperately conjure up excuses, exaggerations, lies and other distractions to try and distract from Riri’s embarrassing era! So lost. They don’t know what to do. I’m over here drinking their tears with a Big Gulp straw! 😀
This lil Vita Coco heaux is trying it!
Lol Will somebody please tell LooseBowls that Latino is not a race. His stupidity is irritating my f****** soul!

noun
1. the action of forming or process of being formed. 2. a structure or arrangement of something. I now dub the anti tour the DEFORMATION TOUR… The first to work the magic of compacting a stadium into a arena… thats sum next level Babidi majin buu type magic. *plays UPGRADE U* maybe be will enlist her as an opening act… bey might not need one.
@Mark said Anti and Work were not for sale lmaooo. Work was always on iTunes you dumb c***. Anti sold 460 on Tidal and debuted at #27. You can’t even shade Formation it had people seething and it’s slaying Radio. Its not on iTunes so it won’t be on the Hot 100 chart that’s not an excuse it just facts. You’re making yourself look foolish trying to shade Formation ??
Ugh they are really dumb lol.
Mark’s lying bout Work’s availability on ITunes and LB is ignorant to the fact that Latino isn’t a race. I can’t!!!!!
Lmaosee they were the ones talking all tgat s*** before the album dropped. They shaded everyoneee and now they’re talking about “the hive this the hive that” like they weren’t dragging Bey. Not mention they dragged self titled for filth saying the way she released it was a gimmick. Fast forward to 216 their fave is the one with the biggest gimmick lmao.
I hate them. They’re all hypocrites
I see cancellation in the US in the near future because some of those sales are atrocious. Good for her ass.
I cannot with this Heaux not is the UK paying her album dust they paying the tour dust as well!!! Her biggest market has turned on her im GASPING for air ??????????????????????????
How? Two dates? She added Italy and Sweden to replace these two shows. so what’s the point ? She wasn’t in demand in this specific area. But all of the other shows sold well. The hive is the only fan base so worried about how much she is sellin or what not. Like I said. As long as the tour as a whole isn’t canceled she is fine. She probably needed more time to sell more tickets. Wig icy is nothing to be shaded about if the venues are big. She is barely promoting this tour or album. No tv spots nothing.
Navy just take that L and exit
Death @LBs tragic attempt at making this about Beyonce to mask the epic fail his fave is going through right now. Beyonce is clearly winning while your fave is loosing. Finally the battle has been decided. When you put theme DIRECTLY head to head releasing music and tours at the same time, now we have proof of who wins. Rihanna is all smoke and mirrors and all about releasing in bulk to make her numbers look impressive.
It’s just two stadium dates, which means she STILL has all 25 of those stadiums dates attempted left available for purchasing tickets. Taylor did 31 stadiums on the “1989 World Tour” and you REALLY don’t think Rih will eventually add more? Lol! The delusion is real…..still love the Hive, though.
poor rih
I guess the reign finally let up.
AFRO-latinos exist, though. ugh.
Just admit that it is a flop
Wrap up the era and come harder in Rihvember with better music
Lets face it Rihanna is so dated. Doing that song with Drake was nice tho. I heard that her album was not good at all. I really hate to say this but Rihanna is a has been while Chris Brown is going strong. I guess 2009 is finally catching up to her.
Nice
