Rihanna may perform like a pensioner, but her promotional machine is showing itself to be as vivacious as ever. For, with her album ‘Talk That Talk’ due in stores in a matter of days, the model snagged a coveted slot on the X Factor USA.
Peep the model give her first televised performance of chart-topper ‘We Found Love’ after the jump…
Via Neon Limelight:
Largely lip-synced, the performance was varying flavours of garbage. From the lack of stage presence, to the walking up and down, it’s like at least give us a Naomi Campbell Walk?! Something!
Then again, when your career is basically built on the phrase “eff effort”, why would you or your team push you to be better?

I agree. Rubbish.
STOP HATING PLZ AND COME OUT WITH SOMETHING OF YOUR OW. IF YOU COULD DO BETTER AND LET US JUDGE….RIHANNA KILLED HER PERFORMANCE AND LOOKED AMAZING AS WELL CANT WAIT FOR “talk that talk” to go #1 and shut u up!!! RIRI DO YUR THING!!
I love Rihanna but……. my parents taught me if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say it at all. Rihanna Navy!!!!!!!!
I liked the performance, I really love the song more. Questions Rihanna look pregnant or maybe she is just gaining weight.
U kno shes horrible as u claim, why waste time watchin her everymove posting her video within .minutes. U use rihanna just like how the whites used blacks in slavery…. milking them slandering them and using them to better themselves ur the lowest kind of human.
#RihannaNAvy
#UMADWEBAD
fake ass mafuker samantha my b**** turned x-factor into a party
That was horrible 🙁
Promotional Machine ????
Anything to take credit away from her huh????
What the hell are you talking about.
Her album came out today in many countries and will be out in 4 days in the states and this is her VERY FIRST PROMO ANYWHERE this era.
Go take a sit you haters. Rihanna doesn t need a promo machine to smash.
Her song is already #1 in over 15 countries & WORLDWIDE and she didn t have to lift a finger for that.
Unlike a certain basic who did a gazillion award shows, festivals & tv and yet still flopped royally.
LOL yes she did look kind of chunky lol….i wouldnt be participating in the stan war that will follow
The audience was not feeling Rihanna at all. In the begining they clapped but at the end they needed ice cubes under their asses and you can tell she felt the vibe also.
Also she her neck & face looked so big
Lol what the hell was that? 1.) if you aren’t doing choreography prerecorded vocals are just embarrassing; especially if the melody is so simple and unchallenging. 2.) why did the live treatment for this look like an episode of kids incorporated?
Her face did look bloated.
But i guess it s hard to stay on a strict diet when u ve been on the road for a whole year,
willlow smith performance>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>rihanna performance its a damm shame
b**** plz she slayed end of story.
Wait a minute promotional effort….out of all rihanna’s album this one is the least promoted cuz she is on tour stop SAM
rihanna is literally a bag of singles .. there’s no real vocal talent no real dance ability no real stage presence wat so ever .. Jus a chick with a hot image and a decent enough voice to be the muse for the top producers and song writers in the world…………. *sighs* #NEXT
Ha!! Rihanna singing and the mic was down and the song still going, I thought that was so funny
@KERRON Sam gave Rihanna all the promo that she needs. He post at least four things a day about Rihanna.
i loved it. she was a lttle dependent on that backing track but her voice matched well with it. She looked like she was having fun towards the end. Im not surprised the performance wasnt overly- choreograpghed out because this is a RAVE POP song probably the first rave pop influenced single in Rihannas career ; so the dancing was appropriate. i Loved her look it reminds of Madonna in the 80’s . The Girl got that X factor!!!
when will your fav?????
why is gotta be hating?? i mean shes been in the buisness since wat 05 06, and this is wat shes STILL doing? lik c** on i thought as time go by yu getter better at wat yu do, nobody’s hating its the truth STEP IT UP< OR TAKE A BREAK RiRi, becuz yu killin us!
At least she didnt just stand there…like somebody…. Beyonce im looking at you
lol sam obviously has communication problems as it is evident that she was singing u could hear her singing in her nose and groans. just proof that my b**** was on point, note briefly if she only has 3 schedule appearances how can that be vigarous promotion, again lapse in judgement poor sad simpleton.
thats the exact reason u have sold so much records and is a executive in the music industry havin been gagas manager the ceo of defjam and so much more because ur opinion is gospel.
Guess what sam ur opinion equates to zero, you kno what time it is and rihanna is about to slay all u queeenz!
@Tc23 u hit the nail on the head .. Its like watching a high school talent show .. she’s so lucky she’s workin with the best writers and producers in the world cuz she would have been back flipping burgers in barbados a long time ago
I think WOW describes that performance .. and no not in a good way .. I see why rihanna stans only quote her billboard stats and never her as a good singer and performer because as long as she has the best producers, song writers and some pitch correction she slays!! SMH
clearly billboard and itunes is where rihanna shines because on stage … well let’s jus say god help that audience …
umm did I read that some people were actually putting a link to rihannas album, so that her album wouldnt sell?
where do they do that at?
and i saw somebody calling rihanna a w****..and I’m shaking my head at that person..because shes always the first to have a heart attack when people call her fav a flop..
bitter b**** syndrome is not pretty
Thank you sam and the audience said what i wanted to say. leave that performance for willow smith. That was horrible and this is no hating. to those who are blind give it a second watch and pay attention. That was horrible.
Rihanna had better not peak yet cause i am waiting for that performance to say yassss!!! b****, meanwhile you have contestants like stacy and astro on the line to go home without a contract!!!
why would you come on a show like that when all of it’s contestants are better than you??
VOCALS ARE NEVER IMPRESSIVE
BUT U GOTTA ADMIT, SHE WAS LOOKING HOTTTTT!!!!!
Love the new layout Sam!!!
This performance was “okay” for me. She was singing live because you could hear the microphone but the BACK TRACK was too loud and at certain parts when she put the mic down, she still sounded the same but I commend her for keeping my attention the whole time. I wished she danced more. I don’t like the jumping up and down thing. TTT is a nice album, Already have it locked and loaded on my iPod. Do Ya Thang and Drunk On Love are the best songs on it! Anyway, good luck to Rihanna in her future endeavors.
And that’s Sincerely, YeaBey
my honest opinion…..
yes there are people out there with more talent than rihanna whos not getting the shine they deserves..
but at the same time I cant knock the girl hussle…..
i used to be one of the people who couldnt understand how the hell has rihanna managed to stay on top for so long with minimal talent…..hell i used to joke all the time that her head game must be on point(cough joe camel)
@RatedX
I heard they have link but I don’t know it either and don’t want to know it. By the weekend in will be sold on the streets for $5.00. That’s a damn shame
@RATED X
Yeah, I’ve seen that on my TL.
The navy spread the 4 leak so it couldn’t sell.
The Beyhive spread the TTT leak so it couldn’t sell.
And now the navy is spreading Mary J Blige’s album because Bey is on it and it comes out the same day as Rihanna’s.
It’s pathetic to be honest.
It’s cute all the hate Sam, sadly for you the performance and the video in general proves you wrong in SO many ways
Let’s start with the intro video: 120 million record sold, impressive huh? I know but let’s skip numbers I know you don’t like them, 11 #1’s again you know it and before the year ends it could turn in 12, Triple (actually 4) Grammys
The performance, not lipsync, she used a back track you can clearly hear her sing over it, it had energy and even a little choreography, the crowd was so pumped!! Hell even 3 judges were on their feet before the performance ended! It had energy and life into it!!
The interview, did i hear right? “INTTERNATIONAL SOLD OUT TOUR”? Yes! So I guess your previos tittles “Low ticket sales” or “Not so great selling tour” seem a joke right?
I can’t ask you to love her but after this performance I feel complete! Cause Rihanna has showed me something: she is not the best, but she is GOOD and LOVES what he doe and WORKS hard and you can see all of that affect her Music and Performances! What do I mean?She is passionate! That’s her talent! Work hard and keep trying, being real and connecting through her music with her fans! There is the key of her success
The performance wasnt all that
but I am glad she is working on her stage presence
at least she wasnt stiff like somebody`s performances lately
Seriously i cant believe some people are rooting for Rihanna to top The Beatles, Mariah and Elvis for more number ones ever!! I cant @ the idea!! I like the performance..
….. Okay well let’s start with the good news .. she looked hot!! And that’s where the good news ends .. I’m sick of her stans quoting her billboard stats (that’s basically all she has) and completely disregard her complete lack of vocal ability (in the studio when u can do 50 takes to get it right plus pitch correction doesn’t count) .. she barely dances doing a DANCE track and her stage presence well I think u either hav that or don’t .. And she DOES NOT .. I really dnt wana seem like I’m hating but I keep seeing all week RIHANNANAVY and she’s snatching everyones wigs!!! Trust me with performances like these wigs are safety planted
but my feelings has changed…..rihanna music is fun to listen to…i dont listen to her music for her vocals..
i have mariah, jazmine, celine, heather and so on for vocals…
people needs to hop off her d***……its not that damn serious..how ur gonna get mad at her fans for liking the chick…
its like every rihanna post same people wanna comment, and call her all type of names..but let it be a post about their favs..they wanna cry like a b**** if u say anythin negative..
That was a mess. I don’t even know why she had a microphone.
Clearly she’s tired and didn’t have time to figure out a performance for this or You Da One. On her day in between shows, she’s flying from the UK to LA and then back again to squeeze in promo.
She shouldn’t be putting an album out right now. She recorded in hotel rooms while on tour and she can’t promote it because she’s on tour. I’m waiting on her exhaustion fallout.

—————————————————————–
EXACTLY
I’ll say it once ill say it again talent is subjective and is a matter of personal Taste
dead at you know who sayin he wanted to see some Naomi Cambell in Rihannas performances , that alone lets it out of the secret out that sams idea of a good performance weighes heavily on how much of a Diva the person acts like while on stage. hell any t***** walkin down the street can walk like Naomi Cambell/act flamboyant / like a Diva does that mean they have stage presence in comparison to the next person …hell no
@ Rated X
Yes PREACH !!!!!!!
I have Mariah, Mary, Beyonce, Celine, Patti for VOCALS !
You notice tgj never give any of rihannas performance any prps. They hate her..so what else would they say.
Let me tell you all somethng RihannaNavy can try and block Mary J but it’s not happening because Mary’s audience are older and they will support her. They don’t believe in all that free downloads they are adults not kids.
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, What would a RIH Post be like without the help
of her biggest fans (haters) rooting her own. She showed up and showed out. She Looked full in the face and remember shes still growing right before our eyes. She did really good, so confident and she Owned that crowd and they was into it. Its really great when you have friends like la reed, simon and seacrest it don’t get no better than that. This is clearly Kicking her Promotional Maching into gear to get started to Promote her latest Project. And if we miss the mark i fault the haters for sending down load links all around the Net to try and throw a M***** Ranch up into the mix, but it seems to always pan out when the DEVIL intended something for the worst it often times has a way of turning around and turn out great. Rihanna and her Navy thats me will just have to work even harder and keep doing it til we get enought, and we wil,,,,Trust. The haters aint running nothing but their Big Lying Mouths!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I actually like some of rihannas music BUT rihanna is proof that numbers are meaningless in the music industry .. does she have catchy music HELL YESS but there’s a major difference between catchy and classic .. I consider rihanna the fun pop girl for today and in 5 years prob a new pop girl will be cycled in so whatever .. But her performances are just ehhhh .. I kno the navy loves it but her voice live is jus … Well let’s jus say the studio is a magical place ..
The song was cool but her performance wasn’t all that great to be honest.
@James ,,,,,keep supporting your fave and we shall see and will see
who the winner is. I like both ARTIST and since you hates rihanna with a passion i often times wonder just how NUTTY you or since your ASSSSSHEY ASS Is always here showing mad Passionate love for her
harder than many of her fans, Just saying. Well one thing is for sure her first single is still top 10 in 22 countries and i hope that the movement keeps up the good work because we or caslling all Navalo Officers and asking for the “MOVEMENT ” To kick in gear and less get this party started. I see marys album is #1 on itunes r&b if i saw it right hey i am not mad at mary but rest assured we will go all the way supporting RIHS
Musical Career!
For the ppl complaining about ppl shitting on rihanna .. I suggest u go to ANY bey post or ANY recent mary j post (mind u most of the navy prob haven’t even heard a mary j song yet because bey is on her album suddenly they have opinions) because I’ve seen the navy attack as if rihanna is the second coming .. Beyhive ur not off the hook either because I’ve seen u come at rihanna viciously as well .. No stans are worse because ALL STANS are obnoxious ..
@RATEDXXXX,,,,Yes thy was giving the link to get her album downloaded
and laughting about her not being able to ever get that #1 for the US and some one even stated that they would be back to laugh at RIH and Her Navy For not reaching that #1…. Now its fine for others to not get a pukkkkin #1 Single, because they say she could care less and i say b/s thats the biggest lie ever. But all is well i am not worried about a group of Looney Tune Clows because they will learn that the harder they tries to take her down the stronger shes going to RAIL AGANIST THE CLOWNS!!
So what if mary have a high first week. Rihanna still outsell her in the long run. Mary had a high first week last year and has only sold 800 and something thousand to date in the US. All the artists who get out the blocks on first week always lose the race with rihanna when its all said and done. Rihanna is a marathon seller and not a sprinter.
Why would some one try to block another persons, JAMES Now you know that rihannas album leaked and you or all happy as a baby in a s***** diaper and now you mean to tell me that people the Navy had better not try to block Mary have you done went and lossed your phukkkkin small brain?????? Why would the navy try and block another artist whos just making a living to. My question to you JAMES is would you have been happier if mary was the only person dropping new music, i guess you know that Bey, mj, rihanna, mary j and others or dropping music on the same day????
To all the ppl so sure rihanna is gna beat mary umm let’s think about this… rated r came out after one of the biggest scandals of the year, a 20/20 special, she performed at the AMAS, sold rated r for 3.99 during the week of black friday (one of the biggest holiday shopping weeks in the US, funny how she always releases albums around then hmmm doesn’t usually help tho)and STILL missed the top stop with 181000 (mary shits those numbers) ..rihanna had TWO number one singles proceeding her loud album yet still only managed to do 207000 and of course in rihanna fashion missed the number one spot ..Now mary umm I can jus sum it up and say mary hasn’t debutted with less than 300K in a decade ..
@KARLA,,,,Well stated,,,Thanks!
why would the navy spread links of mj album? mary j audience are not teenagers and don’t do lots of downloads, so most likely it is spread amongst those who didn’t plan on buying it either. nothing changes.
what goes around comes around. You guys complain when rihanna link was circulated and bey album was circulated by the navy first. why be mad though. what’s the big deal? your mission was accomplished, stop nagging b******
Won’t say anything at all about that rendition. Gonna take my Grandma’s advice this time.
So what if Rihanna will or won’t have #1 album in the U.S. Her worldwide sale will slay all these new releases. WW sale > U.S sale!! Go Navy!!
@TC23 YASSSSSSSS i cud not have said that better ok
@Lax
Do me a favor STFU
@gdboyratedloud
When DA HAEL do u see Beyonce EVA just standing there????? Even when she does ballads she moves around the stage! And even if she DID just stand there, itd be a whole lot more than what Rihanna calls performing. And if youre referring to her Countdown performance, she was SICK ! probably from her pregnancy, but yet STILL slayed the shyt out of Rihanna’s running across the stage back and forth like a 2 year old on crack. You tried and FAILED. Now have several seats. Thanks.
CONGRTAS BLACK GIRL.. slayin these lessors.. lmao. she still has no talent.. i still like her.. she shouldnt perform on a talent show tho.. “TALENT show”??? UHHH
@Lax
This is why I made that comment made by Yeabey
YEABEY is on your mind.
November 17, 2011 at 9:18 pm

The Beyhive spread the TTT leak so it couldn’t sell.
And now the navy is spreading Mary J Blige’s album because Bey is on it and it comes out the same day as Rihanna’s.
It’s pathetic to be honest
You know what, just for the sheer amount of hate that Rihanna’s receives on the regular, I would LOVE “Talk That Talk” to go #1.
Anyway, it looks like she was having fun & the audience seemed to really enjoy it.
She didn’t give the kids NOTHING! I mean, I can’t work with that Rih Rih! That performance was terrible. You looked terrible. You need to drop some weight from your face. I mean you didn’t slay AT ALL! Beyonce would NEVER do that. EVER which is why she sits on the thrown and you’re still gunning for it!!
Something about rihanna performances always baffle me .. Cuz its not like recent britney spears where she’s literally standing there kinda moving dead eyed .. Rihanna actually has energy and she does move (didn’t say dance) .. But whenever I watch there’s always something so terrible about it to me lol its not about the vocals cuz britney sang prob about 10 times live in 10 years and USED to slay me .. Fantasia doesn’t dance but wen she performs I go OFF .. With rihanna I guess its just a serious lack of stage presence and that’s something that really can’t be taught
@Tc23 sooo sad but SOOOO TRUE!
I will say this is a lot better , but nothing special , no tea no shade
RIHANNA YOU FUKIN ROCKED IM BUYIN 10 COPIES OF #TTT!!! LOVE YOU and thank you thatgrapejuice.net for all the Rihanna promo!!
Loud leaked and we all saw how it turned out….Hell instead of leaking TTT yall shoulda been tryna leak 4 in smbdys ear and they might’ve bought it…..oh wait it did leak nd it still ddnt help…Oops….LOL…
I hope Rih Doesn’t get that #1 album so yall can keep Talkin That Talk cuz WE LOVE it!!! LOLOLOL
Loved the performance..Haterz STAY MAD
#TheyMadAtRihannaGame!!!!!
FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER @HONEY_DIP11 I FOLLOW BACK!
?……Why will the HATERS BE MAD AT THIS ……COME ON YALL CAN’T BE FORREAL …THIS WAS JUST OK AND I MIGHT BE REACHING WHEN I SAY OK
I loved the dancing she added at the end, i like big performances like this..with alot of dancers..yeah do i wish it wasnt so much playback playing…ofc, but w/e..she looked good and this performance of WFL is the best one she has done so far..and thats all that matters..improvement…TALK THAT TALK….thats all.
*Sips Tea*
This is the bizillionth example of Rihanna’s lack of talent. Every time RiRi gives a performance, it’s awful. The producers, songwriters and label execs can’t manipulate s*** when it comes to the stage. Some people have talent and some people don’t…RiRi is the latter.
The reason yall mad at Rihanna is bcuz Beyonce’s album ddnt perform as well as yall sed it wuld and bcuz Rihanna is being her…that’s y I say CONTINUE 2 stay mad cuz she clearly can’t please yall…
Haterz STAY Mad!!! WE LOVE It!!
#TheyMadAtRihannaGame
i just seen what the deluxe edition package looks like…
and its pretty good
WE CAN ALL AGREE this performance was TRASH. Hot Ass Mess. The “navy” can say what they like, but until it happens yall CANNOT say Ms.Fenty can perfom nicely on stage. DEAL
YES RIHANNA THAT WAS CUTE !!!!!
This shows exactly what this girl is made of… nothing.
Very few good tunes on her new album. Lip-synced performance and auto-tuned to death that even when she was talking to Steve you could feel how it hurt your ears. USA, you know better than a s*** song like this at top of the charts…
I liked this performance. However no shade to Rihanna. She works very hard. Maybe too hard, cause you can tell the girl is tired. This performance had way too much going on. She sang with the recording and most of the time she allowed it, to out sing her. She basically fist pumped, jumped, and screamed the whole time. I think she’s even put on some weight. BUT, again no shade here. The girl is a star no matter what, and whatever she touches turns to gold. So get some rest Rih! We all wanna see you at your best.
DID ANYONE ELSE SEE 120 MILLION ALBUMS SOLD??
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAH
ON WHAT F***** PLANEY!!!!!!!!!!
120 million records sold = singles yall f****** dumb asses
That performance was beyond poor. Y’all need to admit that this girl is a complete creation of the board room and recording studio. Rihanna doesn’t have an organically talented bone in her body and her success personifies virtually everything WRONG with the music industry today.
the performance was good, i like the breakdown towards the end of the performance, and people keep saying that the audience didn’t like it but they were cheering when they announced rihanna’s name and kept cheering all the way through the performance.
@DAX

yet your ass clicking on her post to support her
@YEAISAIDIT,
only 70+ million singles, 23 million from albums and 27 million from ringtones and others.
L.A Reid had a disappointed look on his face. I it’s safe to say I was disappointed to. Rushed home program my tv for the show just to see Rihanna hot mess performance . SMH
@COMMANDEROFTHEDANCEFLOOR
only 70+ million singles, 23 million from albums and 27 million from ringtones and others.
thxs that what i meant thank for clearing it up
umm the rihanna stans are not the only stan base who quotes her stats….
every stan base does it……….
whats wrong with them bragging about rihannas number ones..i see people brag about their fav being number 1 in iceland all the time
am not gonna lie..i do see some of the rihanna stans go in on beyonce..and i always told them beyonce is the talented one…
but rihanna is on her own lane too…she has managed to make a name for herself in the game…and most of yall are on here trying to downplay her success,
and get mad at her fans for supporting her, or get mad when they brag about rihannas stats..
its seem very bitter b**** like, when u never can give people their props
Actually was a good performance.. I was expected something else lack-luster. She look like she gaining weight though. Hope she get that #1 album.
When I first heard this song, my first thought was, a really nice song, but I knew that she would not be able to perform this live and I was right. The least she could do would be give a proper choreographed routine, especially since most of her live performances she is not singing, so breathing should not be difficult. Rihanna is no live performer, she is a studio performer at best. Look, the girl has catchy songs and we can’t argue that she has the “hot” factor but the bottom line is that she has a great marketing team which is the main reason she bust out of the blocks like she did. Don’t knock her success – what’s for you is for you and this is her destiny. Who we should be attacking are the Record Labels who are more interested in exploiting the “look” of an artist instead of promoting real talent and lyrical content. I read somewhere that talent is only 20% of the music industry now – what counts more is marketability of the individual. We should be thankful for real vocal talent like of Adele, Beyonce, Melanie Fiona, Mary J Blige, Kelly Clarkson, Cee Lo Green, John Legend just to name a few.
a hot boiling mess all around she is fat!
Watched it twice…. the girl is singing along the back track. You can even hear when she BELTS we found love. Lip-synching would involve lipping the performance. There were moments where she allowed the back track to take over but you can CLEARLY hear that she is is singing on top of a track. I don’t really like when they have pre-recorded tracks but w/e. Simon gave her a standing O so he must’ve thought it was good LOL. I enjoyed it…. It’s a rave track… she doesn’t need an ENTIRE dance number seriously!! Ppl forget the girl came out DANCING. If I want to see a chick dance I look elsewhere!
I didn’t even bother to watch it. I’ve seen enough of Rihanna’s performance FAILS to know that this one was probably no good either. And judging by the comments, it seems like my prediction is right. Just stick to the recording studio where you can be “tweaked”, don’t try to perform “live” Rihanna…you simply don’t have any skill or aptitude for it.
Is someone really talkin about someone spreading TTT leak…..f*** outta here…
Everybody’s album leaks and everybody speads the link. They did it to 4…and in fact on this very website someone went to every post and posted.
Now this performance….not the business.
I just don’t like her. Sorry. But I don’t get this chicks appeal — at all. I think she’s silly, generic and corny and I really suspect that that’s what people like about her. Like “corny” has become the new chic. I just don’t get that. When I hear a RIhanna song, I feel like I’m losing brain cells.
this is a good rihanna performance, it suits her style. people who constantly complain that rihanna does no choreography need to realize that she doesn’t dance. and apparently rihanna doesn’t want to dance or else she would of hired dance trainers and choreographers a long time ago.
EPIC!!!!!! great performance, rihanna the new queen of pop
she is so beautiful GAGA IS VERY UGLY uhhhh……!!!!!
great performance !!!!!!!!!!!
YOU GUYS ARE A BUNCH OF F****** IDIOTS
RIHANNA IS THE DEFINITION OF A POP STAR WHO IS “VERY COOL”.
SHE IS COOL.
SHE DON’T PLAY IT THE DIVIN THANG SHE DON’T CARE
THAT’S WHY SHE’S SUCCESSFUL CUZ SHE REAL
AND SHE CERTAINLY DON’T CARE WHAT SUPER IDIOT AND JEALOUS SAM THATJUICESPERM SAYS CUZ HE’S SUCH A BEYONCE STAN so def. jealous of Rihanna.
SIMPLE THAT WAY.
B******
Yes Rihanna is must be so hard to NOT write your own songs, to NOT compose them, to NOT produce them. And now it must be even HARDER to LIPSYNC them or to NOT sing them.
She’s such a f****** joke. Out of breathe REALLY1!!?!? For what?!!?! Jumping around?
This gurl is obviously the example of what those people on that show, WHO DO HAVE REAL TALENT, DON’T WANT TO BE.
Someone please give this poor girl a towel so she can do herself, and most importantly us, a favour and throw it in.

Yeah this “performance” was just dreadfull. No stage presence whatsoever.
A F****** MESS!!!! LOL @ HER BACKUP TRACK BEING LOUDED THAN HER THIN VOICE. LOL @ BEING OUT OF BREATH FROM JUMPING UP AND DOWN(AT THE AGE OF 23YRS?!?). A HOT SIZZLING MESS!
I don’t like Rihanna. But I’m fed up with the all time negativity against whoever artist on TGJ or in the comments…
I can’t believe some of you actually thought that was good. That was probably one of the worst performances I’ve ever seen. She was just running around the stage and singing over the track that shouldn’t have even been on! This girl has no talent. It’s the truth! She doesn’t write or produce her own music. All she does is sing with her little nasally voice. She sounds a mess.
What ever,,,,,
http://www.mtv.co.uk/news/rihanna/259650-rihanna-loud-10-million-sales
Hummmmmmm It seems very clear that she has made
it this far without Gapping her legs all of the time and
Wearing a Nasety Meat Dress on stage and shes still
standing tall over the many Midget Mofo and still getting Paid!
While you clowns keep clowing her Performance last night shes
back in the Uk throwing it down. How does it feel to know that the only thing you or able to do is beat the hell out of that keyboard taking that spite out on that key board and not on Rihanna,,,,Go on and beat that key board up and then Relax to you a nice Cold Glass of STFU,,,,
*sigh* A disaster!20 dancers, extravagant staging, intense lighting, provocative clothes, big hair…everything was used to distract the viewer’s eye from Rihanna herself and make us believe that this was a solid performance.The dancers were even trying to f****** hide her at some point 😯 What the hell??There’s no pure talent, no raw quality in her presence, no real skill, just a bright image…And the image is amazing, but that doesn’t erase the fact that it’s nothing but an image, disposable and superficial…
I understand that she’s REALLY tired because she’s touring, recording, promoting and shooting videos all at the same time, but after 6 years in the game, she should have some control over her career, so that’s not an excuse anymore, I’m afraid.Congrats to her team…
@ASAP,,,,IF RIHANNA Was shitting gold bricks your hating ass would still find something negative to say but your hate is falling on deaf ears, if i was not commenting back to your getto fablous ass your comment would fall on deaf ears. But you should know that what ever Rihanna did on x-factor was well received by those who want a life in the Entertainment Field. A nobody a/h such as you and others hating ass bytches do not count one little bit. You gain of theives Steal Music from Illegal Down Loading and laughts about it. And you or praying and holding your breath for Each and every bump she just might hit in the road ahead of her. Any body, i mean Porky P** can do it

TEST
This was just bad. The back track was too loud. Is she pregnant? Or just gain some weight?
@Lax
why do you feel the need to respond several times on one post? You always go on beyonce, mary other artist posts spreading hate and talking trash. Get a life.
Rihanna needs to take a break and find out her next step. Becuase this was very bad. Heck, even her bestie Katy Perry is going to take a break after her tour. Katy might end up pregnant next year, she wants kids.
and just because people is telling her to take a break, we are not hating, I’m looking out for her health! Mentally and physcially. If your a rihanna navy fan as you claim, you would want that also. She needs time to spend with her family and just resting, who knows maybe she will come back stringer and better then ever. I love ALL artist Beyonce, Christina, Adele, Jlo, Rihanna own all their albums.
I don’t want her to end up like lindsay lohan or the way britney even mariah was. Britney even took a two year break.Her fans should still be there for her, when she comes back.
Who knows maybe she will get more movie roles, I think rihanna will be a great actress if she puts the time into it.
*stronger*
How can you be out of breath from just jumping up and down? at age 23 also? She really needs vocal lessons because she has no control of her voice. Her record label needs to stop seeing dollar signs with her and let her do her. RATED R was her best album, she looked better during the GGGB era, that short black her she was so damn s***.
Her voice is not good for pop or R&B!!! She has a rocker voice.
Not hating just stating facts, Rock is definitely for her.
bring an era of along the lines of Rated R rihanna. Pop is not for your voice.
@LADYGAGA,
first rihanna does write! see haters always talk that talk but don’t have any real facts. rihanna wrote half of TTT, she has written on every album except for loud. she even co produced a song on TTT.
the desperate have to attack other artist to make them feel more assure of their fav.
pre recorded vocals, wack performance!!! go sit down!!
ciara and tiffany evnas is going to take rihanna out!!! Tiffany is the whole package. Actress, Singer and Dancer.
@commanderofthedancefloor
Rihanna does not write!!! She has writers for her, she evens have people help her with arranging the vocals on the song. Like a robot she gets the song, help, then “sing”. She does not write any of her songs.
@NICKLEBACK 2012
please go to this website
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk_That_Talk
go ahead and read the names of the writers, you will see the name robyn fenty (rihanna), this is proof she writes!
haters always have all these accusations but nothing to back them up.
@commanderofthedancefloor
everyone knows wikipedia is fake. Anyone can sign and there and edit information. Know you’re facts navy w****.
Rihanna doesn’t carry any weight, she does nothing.
@NICKLEBACK 2012,
lmfao, now this is what is wrong with your claim!
first, wikipedia has implemented a new system, go to the top of the page and you will see a pad lock, that means that the page is protected meaning that not anybody can edit the page. even if you sign up.
second, to make any changes to the page you need to provide a link to another website that proves what you change is true. and if it is not the page will not be changed.
third, i provided my proof that she writes, but where is your proof that she doesn’t? you can say it all you like but you aren’t changing my mind because i have proof she writes all you have is your “opinion” because you can’t prove it.
Wiki is fake. For instance before Nicki became mainstream, her birth year was Dec. 8, 1981. Then before pink friday came out it was swtiching back and forth literally for 2 days straight with 84 and 82. Nicki is going on 30. That’s just an example stating that wiki is not real information. Even my professors explain that to the class.
@NICKELBACK 2012
you’re wrong. Rihanna co-wrote the majority of Rated R (her BEST album + best album of 2009) and she also co-wrote/co-produced some 5 or 6 songs on this new album. Stop lying!
Not about the nicki situation. But my professors explain don’t get information for class reports from wiki because its not reliable.
the performance wasn’t good she could of done better, and I do agree with the poster. Rihanna doesn’t have a voice for pop music, her voice sounds better with rock music. Rated R was pretty close, hands down her best album. She does look s*** with short black hair. She needs to reevaluate her music and think about herself.
That backing track was comedy. They should have just played the song and showed the video! Her handlers are genius because they know televised performances don’t ever help her, they just hurt. Nab #1 singles and move on….keep the television appearances and interviews to a minimum, (unless they can be edited to make her look like she says something of note) and score some album sales.
@RIHANNA,
they changed wikipedia earlier this year. pages are now protected so that they can’t be altered by just anyone.
Mary is gonna eat her alive next week. Talent over Fat whores.
Rihanna Navy is your commander pregnant? Hopefully, so she can have several seats. She got fat in the face pretty quick. WFL video was released last month, you can’t gain that much weight within a few weeks.
@Commanderofthedancefloor
God, you are an idiot. Just because it says someone’s name as a co-writer doesn’t mean they wrote any lyrics or the majority of them.
Sometimes writers give out credit because they want an artist to take a song.
Sometimes they help with melody or arrangement and get credit.
Most of the time they don’t do a f****** thing to these generic ass pop songs.
You take everything and face value, like so many other idiots.
@commanderofthedancefloor
thanks good to know.
@commanderofthedancefloor
Give me an honest answer what album do you think is rihanna’s best so far.
For me it was Rated R, I listened to TTT i’m not really feeling it except for the interlude and you da one.
Itis funny how every time there is a rihanna TGJ gets their highest comments.
@TurnItUpJust
Chill out with that, its an urban site they have to report on the mainstream artist whether they want to or not. I wish they will report on other artist also.
@AUNTIEJACKIE,
i am an idiot? lol. tell me where does it say she doesn’t write on any of the songs? what your saying easily goes for every single artist in history. you are a certified rihanna hater, always on rihanna’s post talking s*** because you have no life. you should try to be happy. because bitter is not a good look on anyone.
also if rihanna just wanted her name on the album then tell me why it is not on loud, why not put her name on every song to shut alot of the haters up that she doesn’t write!
my point is you say just because her name is on the writers credit it doesn’t mean she wrote anything, but it doesn’t mean she didn’t and she specifically said she was writing. so will i go off of the word and proof of an artist or a desperate hater trying to downplay rihanna’s talent.
another thing i know i said this before but everything you said easily goes for every artist out there.
@RIHANNA NAVY 2011,
my favorite in order is
1. rated r
2. talk that talk
3. good girl gone bad
4. a girl like me
5. loud
6. music of the sun
rated r is the best, she first used dubstep on that album and she brought it back with talk that talk.
@commanderofthedancefloor
I agree
Well you can say what you want but Rihanna is on her grind!!! And looks like the audience enjoyed it…..so HA!
Yes Rated R was her best
Yes I did mention the TTT leak…..AGAIN…..Loud leaked and still sold well….4 leaked and Flopped..go ahead and spread the TTT leak it don’t matter…..but instead of promoting Rih..how about u spread a link to 4 cuz it needs all the promo it can get!
#TheyMadAtRihannaGame
“also if rihanna just wanted her name on the album then tell me why it is not on loud, why not put her name on every song to shut alot of the haters up that she doesn’t write!”
@Commander
From here on out, you’ll be my commander . . . From here on out, you’ll provide the answersssssss . . .
@MARI (RIP DWAYNE MCDUFFIE + AMY WINEHOUSE + STEVE JOBS),
lol
@Teacher
don’t do that…. if 4 flopped so did chris brown and britney lol beyonce sold 907k in the U.S. which is more then them.
don’t go there beyonce is rihanna’s idol. Don’t tear down one artist to build up another.
LMAO AT THIS POST! But seriously is anyone surprised??? THE FACT IS we ALL KNOW RIH’S PERFORMANCES ARE WEAK. Actually feel sorry for the people who attend her concerts. So nothing new here. On another note am not with people who are always dragging her through the mud no matter how much u think she deserves it. And on a separate note, head on to see a REAL performer like Bey AMAZING AS ALWAYS!
And the arguments about Rih writing are pathetic. Yes she does write. She adds all the inappropriate lines hahahahahaha. No but obviously she does write be it very little. BUT she’s never written majority of a song before. Maybe on TTT.
Ok Imma need certain people to shut the f*** up!
WHY THE F*** would she DANCE on a RAVE TRACK?? Are yall stupid WFL i snot one of those songs you do heavy choreography for. It’s for the raves where people just JUMP Around.
I f****** LOVED This performance she gave me what I wanted she kept the audience entertained she worked the stage…. sam talking about how she walked up and down DUUUUH you need to make sure you go to every corner of fthe stage so everyone can get a glimpse of you. She sang live b****** need to stop with the lies you can tell because you can hear the microphone is on when she is jumping and also when she sings over the back in track
I can at people saying rihanna has no stage presence that b**** ran from stage let to stage right to the middle and danced and yall telling me she stood there looooool please just stop!
And for the lady gaga fan
Go buy TALK THAT TALK Because if you do you will find out that RIHANNA Co wrote a few songs and she also CO PRODUCED a song so there you go for the people who say rihanna does not get involved with he rmusic because she has written in 4 out of her 6 albums BOOM!
Talk that talk may not debut at #1 but it will OUTSELL Who ever does debut at #1 and it will reach #1 in the WORLD CHARTS just like loud is
Loud is also top 40 …while a certain somebody’s album is off the chart’s and loud is also outselling BTW!
Rihanna has nothing to proof to the haters they will TALK no matter what she does and let them free promo! or the navy and the navy only brag when a bum b**** try to discredit rihanna.
Rihanna is the hardest working b**** in the game the girl flew for a day JUST to perform and she will be back in Europe for her SOLD OUT Tour 😀
The performance was ok, I hate when the camera cuts in and out, it makes the performance not like it would be if I was in the audience.
That backing track was turned ALL the way up but in general I dont mind when performers who are exerting themselves lip synch. Just as long as its not apparent, hers was this time unfortunately because she starting grunting while the note was still holding and also had the mic down by her side while another word was being sung. Im not surprised though because even though the song is kinda basic some of the notes would be difficult for her to hit live and add in the jumping around, it would kinda be impossible to sound good.
Im going to say it is because she probably isn’t use to doing a basic complete lipsynch. What she did was kinda like singing to the CD in your car with the music turned up, couldn’t really hear her voice. But she’s defintely trying to improve live.
So, I just said that I didn’t like this performance and there comes a random Rihanna fan attacking me assuming all types of irrelevant s*** about me.Baby, I’m not from the ghetto, I don’t illegally download and I don’t hope that she will flop.Take a seat, a nap or a pill, keep your hatred inside and invest in education and anger management.And honey, who asked for sales statistics??NOBODY!Get your f****** act together…
Lying ass Rihanna defenders. Y’all know that performance was a hot mess. She didn’t command the stage…did not much stand out from the “dancers”…the camera half the time didn’t stay focused on her…and the b**** was lip synching for dear life — he only time she used the mic was when she shouted, thinking that was going to fool people into thinking it was more “live” than it was.
Rihanna is a TERRIBLE live performer and habitually gives bad or lackluster performances. Last night was no exception. And anyone who isn’t blind, deluded, a liar, or just plain stupid would attest to that.
@Commander
This generation is so backward, it’s pitiful. They don’t stand for anything. She is the prime example of business profiting off their products. She’s successful because they make it that way. They pump as much money into her as they need to get a great return. And the ball just keeps on rolling because people will just accept anything without thinking about it. Yeah, those songs are catchy, her outfits are cool, but don’t you people have any integrity? Or enough common sense to see through a manufactured “artist”?
What I typed goes for MOST artists out there. Not the ones I like. It’s INSANE (to me) to stan for a chick that does NO work. She works hard? She should stay on her grind and stay on the road and saty putting out albums because it’s EASY. All she has to do is show up and she can barely do that well! She writes nothing. She choreographs nothing. She doesn’t dress herself. She barely sings. She looks like someone’s dress up doll. The truth comes out when her ass in on stage trying to distract people with smoke, lights, dancers and a deafeningly LOUD backing track.
Beyonce (for instance) gets my praise as PERFORMER not as a song writer because she’s not a writer primarily either. She works hard on stage and that’s what she’s good at. Her stans at least have a legit reason to stan. That girl sings her heart out on stage (even though her voice is too operatic for me to be in love with it). That’s reality. She’s got talent. Not my favorite artist, but I’m telling you, I’ve begun to like her because she is THE LAST of the generation that BUILT a business instead of being BUILD BY business. That’s Rihanna, That’s GAGA, That’s Katy.
Milli Vanilli 2.0
Excuses, Excuses. I don’t care how many tours or promotional runs. She or her fans claim she is a “Pop Star” . A star does not give half a** performances like that. Just sad what people call a performance.

don’t do that…. if 4 flopped so did chris brown and britney lol beyonce sold 907k in the U.S. which is more then them.

______________________________________________________

I Love that Rihanna luks up to Bey but when a hater talks s*** I gotta give em smthn to thnk about….Again I wouldnt say Im tearing one down..Im simply stating facts….Instead of promoting Rihanna who they claim to HATE…Y not promote Bey by leaking 4 in smbdys ear nd then they mite buy it….wouldnt u agree? and I Love 4 by the way…..Just the #TRUTH
#TheyMadAtRihannaGame
what is this mess
I gotta laugh at your name Teacher. Did you pass Kindergarten? There are enough spelling and grammatical flubs in your posts to make an idiot stew. The only thing you give people to think about is an example of why crack smoking is a very bad thing for a woman to do when she’s pregnant. It’s like a broken Rihanna CD is where your brain should be. LOL! Dumbass.
BTW, that performance sucked ass and Rihanna has no talent.
This is one of the reasons I vote FOR abortion!! These young kids today think s*** like this is talent or music!! It’s not!! Nothing about this girl is talented! She is making a mockery of music! Yes she had song tunes that are catchy and have nice beats, but to claim and say that she is more then what she really is, is CRAZY!!!
She is just a professional prostitute, getting paid to pleasure and please people. In the years to come, we will all see the truth about this chick!
@AUNTIEJACKIE,
this is what is wrong with people in general, like you for example spout out non sense about rihanna not being a true artist and that is what is wrong with this generation and so on. you can’t except the fact that people like rihanna no matter how much you despise her.
you are not involved with anything rihanna does, so how can you assume she does nothing? where is your proof? how come i can find proof she writes, yet you can’t prove anything you just typed.
and common sense, lol
isn’t it common sense that everybody has different taste in music. i am not going to judge what you like or what anybody else likes. i have enough respect for my self and others to not be ignorant and call people stupid, and other names. also you are one of many people to say rihanna is untalented, your fav said rihanna is talented. how is it that the one you stan for can give credit to rihanna but you can’t?
it is sad when people can’t be happy for others and have to keep being negative towards their success and try to downplay what they have accomplished.
i am really over the name calling! it makes people sound like little kids, i will admit that i have called people names before and i realized that it makes that person sound ignorant.
this was not good at all
im sorry yall but it just didnt click 4 me. i mean the jumping up and down singing over the track etc. it was not organized well.

#TheyMadAtRihannaGame
That’s awesome, i feel like a was dancing in the club, i love her clothes, she looks hot. My little cousin goes crazy everytime we heard this song.
One of her better performances. But all she does is walk across the stage and act a fool. She needs to do proper dancing.

________________________
What is proper dancing? Ballet? Tap? Weave Slingn? Cat poppin?…..????
This song does no need any choreography, this is a club song, you just need to jump and that is what Rihanna do. MMMM some haters.
@ONYX
this is a house song so all they do to house music is jump around, because it is all about free movement. people automatically think because an artist does pop music that they need to dance. but rihanna obviously doesn’t want to or else she would of hired a choreographer and dance trainer.
why is she out of breath? it’s not like she did anything.
I liked it very different kind of like a performance of a drama. yeah she was out of breath but i think its because shes doing alot. She had to travel from her tour to perform at the x factor then travel back to start another tour somewhere else I could understand why she could be out of breath. usually when a singer is on tour they just focus on there tour they dont go back and forth making appearances.
Good point = She had fun on the stage and executed a couple steps. She had nice themed attire.
Bad Points = The performance was abit half hearted (im being kind!!!) and no spark on the stage.
——————————————————————————————————–
She is a s*** girl with great lips
@Teacher
LOL! Unable to defend yourself against my calling you out for being an idiot, in a very transparent manner you glossed right over with what? More spelling and grammatical flubs. You have the intelligence of a flea. The two brain cells in your head appear to be fighting with each other. Seriously, were you born dumb or did someone drop you on your head? You’re just dumb. You must have executive seats on the short bus.
