Rihanna Performs ‘Sweet Home Alabama’ For Charity

Published: Tuesday 12th Jul 2011 by David

Rihanna flaunted her charitable side last during a concert in Birmingham, USA last night, to raise money for the relief effort designed to aid victims who were struck by the natural disasters that hit the state recently.

Check out the performance below…

Here’s to hoping the good folk in Birmingham were impressed with this fatigued and oh so uninteresting showing.

However, it would be wrong not to give Ms. Fenty kudos for doing her part to help those who need it.

    Keving of the skorpian show with Make3al, please give your honest opinion of this performance when you do your review. All the shade/hate you throw at one of our best entertainer (Beyonce) I want to see how honest you are with this stage/singing performance of Rhianna.

  11. Jon July 12, 2011

    That godness shes pretty because she hasn’t got much else going for her really!

  12. OnlyAlexx July 12, 2011

    Why would Rihanna fans be presed over Beyonce?? lol beyonce fans so worried bout Rihanna and how her fans feel like stay over there with your queen we aint checking for yall or bey lol rihanna keep yall mad.. and grape juice this performance slays.. && the people there loved it check the interviews, check twitter check anywhere .. why is her voice even a topic.. she’s raisng money for these people && you had nothin to say about that positive.. true hater.. you will remain irrelvant & rihanna will remain unbothered an continuing slaying

  13. LJ July 12, 2011

    I was there and the show was completely sold-out. Rihanna may not be the best singer, but she did entertain the crowd and none of us left feeling shortchanged.

    I’m completely use to TGJ bashing her, and I often agree, but to take her act of kindness and rip it to shred says more about you guys than it does about her. The mayor of Birmingham said he reached out to several different artists, but she was the only one who immediately said that she wanted to help. Remember she did not get paid one cent from this concert, it was simply out of the kindness of her heart.

  14. can’tbelieveit July 12, 2011

    Kevin of the skorpian show with Makeal who I like (Makeal) please give your honest opinion of this performancae when you do your review. All the shade/hate you throw Kevin at on of the best entertainer(Beyonce) I want to see how honest you are with this stage/singing performancae of Rhianna.

  15. lol July 12, 2011

    her choice in attire may be questionable but that voice of hers in this video isn’t , her vocal actually went well with this country song . she even danced and performed well

  16. lol July 12, 2011

    @LJ
    PREACH!!

  17. ChrisJ July 12, 2011

    lmfao @sam

    it wasnt that bad but this girl needs to take a loooooooooooooong break and focus on her vocals

  18. tjack25 July 12, 2011

    She is just so boring on stage, she cant even dance. Oh well…. looks, hair, fashion does the trick I guess.

  19. CRAZYWORLD July 12, 2011

    she actually sounded controlled and actualyl rockec it

    the shade was unnnessasry

  23. Oceanmate July 12, 2011

    Great “back-up” singers to cover her vocals completely.

  24. bey’knight July 12, 2011

    @RosaRubbel

  26. Kill Yourselves Haters!!! Get Em King B!!!! July 12, 2011

    Rihanna did a Phenomenal Job last night,I really enjoyed myself.Hope to see her again.

  27. lost1wons July 12, 2011

    this is retarded, why did she feel the need to sing this song? This is like a country singer coming to Jamaica to do a “reggae” song, it’s so lamn. I remember when that country group Lady antebellum did “three little birds” and “one love”, it’s just so gay

  28. DCP July 12, 2011

    She sounded really great! Stop hating!

  29. Beyonce and Cb Fan July 12, 2011

    @LJ

    That is why i still love Rihanna even though some things I dont like. She has so much potentail voice/performance wise and doesn;t use it, but I still love her.

  30. bey’knight July 12, 2011

    @kill yaself …..

    hey sis am really glad u enjoyed the show, not sure how but u did so time not wasted

  36. Kill Yourselves Haters!!! Get Em King B!!!! July 12, 2011

    Gagalo!!! She performed just about every hit she’s ever had.She did a Good Job,wished she could dance,but overall I will give her her props.Plus,her show was for the tornado victims,I have family in B’ham Alabama also.I’m glad she decided to help.

  37. aisha aguilera keys July 12, 2011

    Both Riri and the performance were awful. She looked like a trailer h**. Was she high?

  43. bey’knight July 12, 2011

    @Gagalo!!!!(Aka African…)

    it was like puttin a hooker up on stage on open mic night. not only did the crowd sing better they sang more lines

    i know beyonce gaga and others dress skimpy too but ch ri just looks like a straight-up w****. maybe cus she doesnt have the talent/hardwork to back it up

  44. RosaRubbel July 12, 2011

    @ Bey’Knight
    Yes, that’s my girl Monica!
    Sorry boo, but I think that’s the fault of that s***** time zone. Yes, I know this song and I played it a lot a few years ago. I even bought her latest effort ‘Love Me Back’. Very nice album.

  45. YeaBey July 12, 2011

    Did TGJ Offer Rihanna an interview and she turned them down because they were too low budget ? Because it is Rihanna shade everyday…..I don’t like her but damn they give her as much shade as M** gives Beyonce!!

  46. Kill Yourselves Haters!!! Get Em King B!!!! July 12, 2011

    @Bey’Knight You’re Hilarious!!!! It was 100degrees in Alabama yesterday.But that’s still not a Valid Excuse.

  47. Nick July 12, 2011

    That was cute., I really enjoyed her concert, she’s studying & that’s good!

  48. Kill Yourselves Haters!!! Get Em King B!!!! July 12, 2011

    I’m Off To Get My Swim On!!! Chow

  49. Auntie Jackie July 12, 2011

    Very cute, and she sounded great because she stayed in her range. Wish I could say this was HER idea instead of her handlers, though….

  50. RosaRubbel July 12, 2011

    Good night y’all.

  51. bey’knight July 12, 2011

    @RosaRubbel

    Monica is lookin chic. i dont listen to pure rnb like i used to but “street symphony” is still one of my favs. it’s right next to those TLC tunes. i love her new single with lil kim too. i wanted to point out the line where she said , “why am i the one who’s still crying” that line really speaks alot

    @kill yaselves….

    k sis but dont be a stranger else the hive wil have no choice but to buzz u down hehe 😀

  52. Those That Cannot Do, Stan July 12, 2011

    So she did something for free, for charity, where others refused and TGJ shaded her?

    LMAO. This website is like a 12 yr old girl. I’m guessing Rihanna snubbed or insulted while you pretended she was your bestest best friend and it hurt worse than a rough d*** in the ass.

    Sandra Rose up in this joint, sadly you can’t even be subtle with the shade so it merely ends up making you look bad.

    Rihanna and Beyonce stans will fight each other because they’re simple and increase your page views but based on how slow this blog is in general it just ain’t working.

    i felt the same too !!! TGJ is too much these days !!

  58. debbie July 12, 2011

    Rihanna backkup singers sound great. I don’t know what is wrong with Rihanna fans but your fave is looking more & more like a strip stage walker. Her outfits are nasty and very slutty. I also notice how stiff she is awful just awful. Really Rihanna needs to take a long vacation from the industry. I don’t care how many sold out shows she does the audience want to see her slutty outfits. This is a damn shame

  59. pop royalty July 12, 2011

    ppl acting like rihanna should sound like “whitney Houston” or MC ??!!
    this is her voice ! if u do not like it , do not listen !
    but for real she need a serious vocal coach ! but this is her and she’s entertained the audience ! so she did her job i think !!
    she did it for charity and TGJ shaded her ! PATHETIC !
    SAM U NEED TO RE-WRITE THIS BS U WROTE CUZ PPL ARE LEAVING THIS RIHANNASHADE.NET WEBSITE !!!!!! 😉 ! DISGUSTING FOR REAL !

  60. whystillinbusiness July 12, 2011

    Rihanna fit right in with that element and you stans know it, her dancing and singing sounds just like country. You dont have to have that much talent when singing country and that parts that she sang requred what! Again as usual the audience did the work just like all the other concerts and come on if you gonna stan be real. She was so in her element it was funny she could not get them hips to move right for a colored girl for nothing. The less clothes is her only gift. She is terrible she just has fun being terrible and slutty all the time!!!

  61. jamir21 July 12, 2011

    YES RIHANNA !

  62. I AM LACEFRONT LAWSUIT SCREAMING SIMBA WITH CAMEL A.K.A. CUFF YO CREDITS AROUND ME July 12, 2011

    Did you know that Mariah Carey is the only artist in history to accomplish a #1 song on the Billboard Hot 100 every year for an entire decade?

  65. Sandra Smith July 12, 2011

    “Sweet Home Alabama,” a southern version of The Bachelorette, premieres Thursday 9/8c on CMT. Catch the sneak peek: http://bit.ly/ot2TrX

  66. MileyfabulousCyrusfan July 13, 2011

    That key seems the most comfortable for her. But how is singing sweet home alabama over and over impressive? You should have heard her on american idol singing CKB. She sounded beautiful.

  67. Commander of the RihannaNavy July 13, 2011

    She did great!

  68. MileyfabulousCyrusfan July 13, 2011

    @whystillinbusiness you don’t have to have much talent to sing country? Oh wow. Pity on you. Regardless, Carrie Underwood, Shania Twain, Martina Mcbride, leann Rimes, and Dolly Parton are pretty talented and they are all country singers. A genre has to determine someone’s talent? NO, b****. You’re talent determines your talent!

  69. Cindy July 13, 2011

    Stage Walker lol Someone need to buy Rihanna some stage clothes because those little panties and bra is not getting it. The outfits the women were on Dancing With The Stars are very nice and Rihanna should try them.

  70. Fantasy Ride July 13, 2011

    What the hell is she wearing?

  71. Yellow Gorillah July 13, 2011

    She did good and everyone knows it

    Most of the beyonce fans are just pressed as always and i’m not here for beyonce fans telling rihanna how to dress until your fav get’s a new WIG Then yall can’t talk.

    I miss rihanna ughhhh i’m so sick of seeing certain artist.

  72. nice_gurl July 14, 2011

    She needs to change that hair and get herself together, cause she looks awful. And improve her live performances.
