Watch: Rihanna Performs ‘We Found Love’ Live For 1st Time

Published: Monday 14th Nov 2011 by Sam

Renown for her ‘radio friendly’ rather than her stage presence, Rihanna has often seen many of her hits ascend to the top of the charts without a supporting live performance in sight.

Case, point, example, her current single ‘We Found Love’ – which this week returned to #1 on the Official UK Singles Chart.

To celebrate the feat, the 23 year old served up her first live rendition of the Calvin Harris cut at London’s 02 Arena last night. How did she fare? Find out after the jump…

Granted the model oozed more charisma than usual, the performance was still characterised by walking up and down. Proving that no matter how fast the tempo, ol’ Riri would have you thinking you’re watching a wake.

Your thoughts?

    LOL @ “Proving that no matter how fast the tempo, ol’ Riri would have you thinking you’re watching a wake.”

    Her singing is deff not on point, but she is great to look at lol

    “Proving that no matter how fast the tempo, ol’ Riri would have you thinking you’re watching a wake.”

    Girl, did you expect a big dance breakdown? A backbend? Weave tossing? C****** crankin? For this being her FIRST performance of this song, it wasn’t bad at all.
    Ch…..This is a clear-cut example of a bitter queen who can’t give respect when respect is due….and this is coming from someone that isn’t even a Rihforehead stan! My my my.
    Sam, have several seats. You sound pressed.

    After hearing the fans’ off-key singing in the first five seconds, I logged.

  9. Boobie November 14, 2011

    I love it everytime someond sNatches sams wig!

  10. kimberly November 14, 2011

    Thank you sam for posting. That engineer really work magic on her voice in the studio cause she was standing still and still couldn’t hit the note. i always wondered what her live performance would be like. Another era full of s*** performances. i really want her to do award shows so see can get the standing ova. lol when will her fans stop wasting their parents money?

  11. NICK November 14, 2011

    it was cute, she danced a bit.,

  12. good music November 14, 2011

    who just said Beyonce could never? Are you really serious? Stop mentioning Beyonce everyone knows Beyonce is the Best hands down along with Janet. Heck even ciara told rihanna you can’t see her on stage everyone knows rihanna suck except her tone deaf fans, they are “yes” people. Instead of rushing this “6” album she should of took time off and got vocal listens. Trust people will get tired of her she really needs to cool it. Why is she rushing albums anyways? Is it because Janet, Madonna, Mariah, ciara, brandy and beyonce are coming with new albums? She’s not improving and im just stating facts!! Deal!!

  13. MISHKA November 14, 2011

    I don’t think I’ll ever be a fan of Rihanna again – I was a great fan of her during her “Umbrella” days – but I’ll give credit where due. Rihanna has embraced the style and the personnality that match her singing talents. Does she even refer to herself as a singer? i doubt it.

    The only thing she’s guilty of is throwing Chris’career under the bus. But she’s not the one to blame if people buy her records. She doesn’t even try anymore. But she’s still winning.

  14. dOneGun November 14, 2011

    I didn’t like her before. I am a big Beyoncé fan, but Rihanna gets better..
    So damn better.

  15. mel November 14, 2011

    I use to be a fan, I have GGGB and Loud, which may I add is 20x better then TTT. She still could of released skin from Loud, to me it seems like who can reached album 10 the fastest. Quality music takes time, she could of took time off to get vocal lessons but whatever for the time being she’s doing okay, until her fans get tired of her.

  16. honeydip November 14, 2011

    FOLLOW ME ON TWITTER @HONEY_DIP11 I FOLLOW BACK!

  17. kimberly November 14, 2011

    @ MEL how confusing, you said you used to be a fan and have gggb and loud, loud was released last year. You’re a fan stop lying. it just shows how disloyal fan are now!! lol, what made you not be fan from last year till now? umm

  18. wintz November 14, 2011

    I’M LOVING THE ALBUM. Talk that talk just come out already plzzzzzzzzzzz …Jesus man!!! I cant waitttttttttttttt!

  19. Aaron November 14, 2011

    i hate it when you can hear tone death fans singing and you can’t even hear the singer.

  20. Those That Cannot Do, Stan November 14, 2011

    I always wonder what you want from her performances Sam. Not every song needs wig whipping and p**** popping, chill out. especially considering she flipped everyone on their heads when she revealed the happy poppy song wasn’t so bright and sunshiny after all. A serious choreographed dance routine would be weird.

    Frankly the smartest thing Rihanna is doing is not taking your advice.

  21. COOCHIENESS November 14, 2011

    What’s the T girl? #HowYOUdoiiiiin you alright?

    antyways for you copycatter ass H*** out there who’s slandering Bey-motherfucking-once.No one could EVA do what Bey-Motherfucking-once can do.

    Now slang your short ass bangs to that!

  22. Miss Thang November 14, 2011

    She looked good. But she is not a good singer, and performer. At all.

  23. kimberly November 14, 2011

    @ coochiness !!! is that you? lmao. I love you!!! Is that you Brian, please stay on this site!!!

    “My Bangs B****” lmao, let em know!!!

    @ those that cannot. stfu, you criticize gaga performances b****, and want to praise this lack luster s***! this b**** cannot even sing her own song! what the f*** she will do without her back tracks. she is standing one f****** place and still cannot hit the note and you asking what sam want from her. People want this b**** to give people a solid performance at least sing her s***!! I am not a big fan of gaga i have none of her cd’s nor buy her singles but i listen to her music, and i will defend her over all these untalented b******. Get your ratched ass on a seat and pay attention to quality and standard performances and go back to this chick performances. never should you criticize another artist when your artist is cheap manufactured crap!

  24. COOCHINESS November 14, 2011

    lol NO

  25. princessririregn November 14, 2011

    God, I love her! <3

  26. Lolsmileyfac November 14, 2011

    No…….just no……….
    Leave it to real entertainers.

  27. ddddaasss November 14, 2011

    Instead of churning out new albums every year, she needs to work on those vocals.

  28. Original November 14, 2011

    I don’t understand why people make it a point to bash rihanna on these ILLEGITIMATE blogging sites. She’s SELLING OUT COLISEUMS. Clearly her concerts must be pretty good! While y’all sit behind a computer trying to criticize her she’s out there MAKING MONEY.

    IF ANY OF YOU HAD A MUSICAL EAR YOU WOULD KNOW THERE ARE PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE YELLING WRONG NOTES.. Not Rihanna

  29. Lacey November 14, 2011

    CAn she sit down for one……we need Christina back yet we get the siren over and over

  30. Tim12 November 14, 2011

    and this is why I can’t stan for rihanna .. she has a few songs I love but watching her perform is like ehhh *sighs* and plz let’s not bring in beyonces name on a post about rihanna and performance skills because … you kno what … #icould but #iwont

  31. SHESDUMB November 14, 2011

    ALL THOSE STAGE PROPS,PYROTECHNICS AND FLASHING BACKGROUND COULDNT SAVE HER “PERFORMANCE”
    I DARE RIHANNA TO DO THIS SONG ACOUSTIC TO JUST AN ACOUSTIC GUITAR ONLY.

  32. BEYONCE IS FADING CHECK BILLBOARD CHARTS. November 14, 2011

    BEYONCE COULD NEVER DO POP MUSIC LIKE RIHANNA. RIHANNA IS GOOD AT POP , BEYONCE IS A GIMMICK WITH FLOP SINGLES AND NO ORIGINALITY.

  33. B_STANNING AND LOVING ADELE November 14, 2011

    I like Rih swag and even some of the songs they give her but nobody cud never ever be on Beys level performance wise. When Bey came out these trannies gave her a hard way to go because the b**** is too bad it seems unreal

  34. Sterling8music Queen! November 14, 2011

    I love me some Riri!

    I think the reason she continues to sing that way is because it makes fans feel that they too can become famous. Anyway I love her cd’s. I wont download this one, but I’ll wait until its on itunes. Thought… do you think the labels leak the music? Artist are not getting paid for there music anyway. Live performances and contracts.

  35. Those That Cannot Do, Stan November 14, 2011

    @Kimberly

    Sweetie take a Prozac and ease yourself onto a therapist couch. You’ve been sniffing paint fumes or something. Sam’s post was specifically talking about Rihanna walking up and down the stage so I watched the video to see just that. Rihanna wasn’t just walling back and forth, she was moving and dancing. It wasn’t choreographed but frankly this would be a weird song to do formal choreography too. I dont give a f*** who you’re a fan of, I don’t give a f*** who you listen to, I don’t give a f*** about your opinion.

    Grow up and calm down. All that ranting and you’re not even responding to me on anything, just rambling on your own opinions (issues?). Love the hell out of Gaga but please don’t talk to me about quality because Gaga has plenty of her own flaws.

  36. christine November 14, 2011

    So sad…this is a dance track and that girl gave me nothing. 2 seconds of a two step and that was it. I’m a fan of her music, but live it is sub par. But I guess if people keep supporting her live shows why would she work harder then she has too. smh

  37. THE GREAT LACEFRONCE. November 14, 2011

    Rihanna>>>BLEACHonce 🙂

  38. kimberly November 14, 2011

    @ Beyonce __…….. You right Bey will never do pop like rihannas cause her vocals are too much for these basic songs with a few ranges and childish melodies.This is no challenge for her. She will never she have to resort to the more complex pop, what rihanna can never do even if her vocal coach is by her side. Ever wonder why her grammys are never much she is not know for her vocals or her song quality. b**** sit. everyone on youtube can do her pop. does that answer your question?

    The most untrue statement i have read. beyonce is a gimmick. lmao

    @ SHESDUMP watch strangers on youtube sing that song without an studio engineer. These b****** can fight all they want doesn’t change the fact that she is a wack artist that use s** and payola.

  39. Lax November 14, 2011

    Rihanna never has t0 prove jack s*** to the Lames, Loosers and
    Looney Tunes Simply because none of your M***** Asses Signs her checks.
    Her Voice is Unique & very different from any other. Rihanna has never Waved a RED FLAG Claming that shes the best at a Dam Thing. She do not ever have to Sing Like Whitney, Bey, Janet, Britney, Madonna, or Ga Ga, but shes still in the game.

    Rihanna do not ever have to have Beys money, Jlo, Chers, Celine, or BBE IN THE Billionaire Club But RIHANNA is still in the “PUCKING GAME” And you HOPLESS BYTCHES WILL DEAL. Keep talking Crap and Bashing the hell out of RIHANNAS NAME Because you still can not stop OTHERS From loving and supporting RIHANNA No matter how hard you try.

    To9 tell the truth about it, WE Love RIHANNA Just like she is and she do not have to pu**y Pop to stay in the game. If She has come this far and shes this big in the game and SHE IS,,,Then she has made it this far with hard work, determination and the drive that she has along with great Work Ethnics.
    PS: People love RIHANNA AND THERES NOTHING THE LOINEY TUNES CAN DO BUT KEEP BASHING HER NAME AND KEEP WATCHUNG HER CLIMB ON TO THE TOP AND BEYOND,,,,,,

  42. Cafe November 14, 2011

    LMAO, she pushed her dancers off the stage! Hahahaha.
    I love RiRi, I really could’nt hear a lot of her vocals, but her performance had a lot of energy.

    Keep up the girl work!
    xoxoxo

  43. Lax November 14, 2011

    Shes not a good performer, singer dah, dah,dah
    all the way to the Mofo Bank, Bytches. S*** i
    would rather watch Rihannas Performances than fifety
    others that i can name whos supposed to be Hot S***.
    Don’t you know that shes Loved, can’t you see the love shes
    getting???? If she did not have love than she sure in the Hell
    eould not be selling out Arenas no dam place in the world now
    would she, But you “LOONEY TUNES” Know that already, Right????

  44. mark November 14, 2011

    People on youtube sings Rihanna songs 10x better then her. She can’t even sing her own songs? WOW

  45. mark November 14, 2011

    @Lax

    Her voice is unique? hahaha are you serious? She stoled her whole “style” from Fefe Dobson. Of course she don’t have nothing to prove, because people like you accepts this trash. That’s why she will never give you 100% because you aceept whatever she throws at you.

  46. ……oooopppss November 14, 2011

    @ LAX is pressed, wow pressed much. The truth really hurts. Artist break records all the time. The question is what is new? 10 arenas sold out and at what cost? and one child plus his or her parent cause they are minors take an extra seat. The truth really hurts!! get over it. There are records in music and the artist is no where to be found. Worry about how your b**** will compose herself in years to come to actually be respected if ever.

  47. jill November 14, 2011

    To test her vocals have her sing a ciara song, brandy song, heck one of cassie songs. Ciara is not a great singer but she can out sing and perform this Island chick. This girl is so basic, her shows do not OUT Sell anyone, even Britney concerts “sell out” rihanna performs at the small arena’s, she’s so basic.

    She needs to sit, because the REAL singers are about to OWN 2012, Mariah, Janet, Madonna, Christina. No one in the industry takes Rihanna serious, she can’t sing.

  48. Christina 2012 November 14, 2011

    Her tickets are cheap, who actually goes to her show. Paul (from the beatles), Vanessa, Angela, Russell Simmons, Adele, Chris Martin and his wife, Jennifer Hudson, Diane Warren, Deborah Harry, Prince, Babyface. ALL attended Beyonce 4 Intimate concerts !!Beyonce, even Gaga and Britney is respected in the music industry. I wouldn’t go to a Rihanna’s concert if it was free.

    You want to always bring Gaga and Beyonce name unto a post that has nothing to do with them.

    Rihanna is a gimmick, she has to distract away from her performances by having Props, dancers all time, grabbing her privates, bringing people on stage becuase she sucks.
    Rihanna can’t even sing ballads, always party music. She will never be a legend, she’ll be gone before she’s 30. She’s a joke.

  49. Bey Fan… November 14, 2011

    I don’t knock Rihanna, I love all her albums….but PLEASE stop the Beyonce comparison. My goodness….I mean ppl can’t be serious.

    Anywho, she sounded like I would imagine she would sound. The song is popular because of the pop-dance beat. So her vocals really aren’t a factor.

  50. HALF AMAZIN November 14, 2011

    @ JILL
    “….rihanna performs at the small arena’s, she’s so basic…” 02 Arena=20,000. SOLD OUT 10X. Run along and gtfoh.

    You freshly starched and pressed. This is the dumbest oxymoronic comment ever. What arena’s you selling out??….I’ll wait

  51. HALF AMAZIN November 14, 2011

    Haters stay mad. Find your fave a hit.

  52. James227 November 14, 2011

    Now that was just awful. Remember how Rihanna got famous will be the way of her downfall.

  53. lola November 14, 2011

    I really do believe that her career will start fading this era. She’s so damn wack. She can’t sing, can’t dance, can’t perform… she’s pathetic! It’s crazy how so many people took her side and had some damn nerve saying Chris Brown was untalented, when this b**** has no talent at all! She’s just a p*** star who does drugs, smokes cigarettes, and cusses out everybody on twitter! I f****** despise this b**** because of how slutty and stupid she is! She has that ” I Don’t Give a F***” attitude, and it’s disgusting. She thinks it’s cute to spread open her legs and p**** and hump people onstage and it’s just degrading. She’s the one who irks me the most. I cannot wait until it is f****** over!

  54. RICHNBLACK11 November 14, 2011

    CHILD NOTHING NEW SHE SOUNDS HORRIBLE AS ALWAYS @RIHANNA FAN SETTLES FOR ANYTHING B****** SHE WILL NEVER BE BETTER THAN BEYONCE NEVER WELL ALEAST IN THIS LIFETIME. HAVE A GREAT MONDAY…HEARD TTT LEAK HORRIBLE

  55. COOCHIENESS November 14, 2011

    Gorl,I still see y’all Copycatter ass H*** trying to Ctrl-C Ctrl-V the coochiness.

    People always getting on Sam on here and yet they read the blog every day!! Humourous! Keep it up sam, i look forward to your jokes, they are hilarious and give me brand new material to use on my friends lolols!

  58. Lax November 14, 2011

    READ SLOW WITH BI-FOCALS Locked TO THE HIGHEST POSITION
    Rihanna do not want to be BEYONCE, No one with a brain do. Do
    they Admire Beys get up and go attitude toward her career Helllllllllll Yes
    Do they want to be Beys,, Helllllllll No. Rihanna has Carefully Carved out
    her own lane and have got that Kick ass attitude aout her work. And as far
    as how RIHANNAS Music sounds is a different Tale of the CARIBBEAN QUEENS
    Fast and swift rise to the top of the charts. AND TO TELL THE TRUTH RIHANNAS
    MUSIC Can be Chicken s*** or Chicken salad the guiding FACTOR With her Music
    is her ability to keep making HITS & SELLING TOUR TICKETS And her Albums & Singles sales and her sales tells a different tale of rhannas quest FOR KEEPING HER CHART TOPPERS Coming and keep dominating the air waves and the digitial charts,,,,RIGHT NOW SHE KEEPS DOMINATING ,,,,TELL ME “LOONEY TUNES”
    How is it that throught all of your walls of UNDISPUTED BULL S*** RIHANNA Keeps on her career journey full steam and all you empty Ait headed Looney can do is keep repeating the same OLD TIRED ASS BULL S*** DAY IN AND DAY OUT, WHILE RIHANNA IS KEEPS GAINING GROUND!

  59. KERIHILSON2NDCOMINGOFMJ. November 14, 2011

    her songs are doing good on he charts , cant same the same for some other artist……..

  60. Dezi November 14, 2011

    Madonna is a s*** singer and she currently holds the record for best selling female artist. What is not talent to you …maybe talent to others – madonna is living proof. Rihanna doesn’t even sound bad to me – If rihanna sounds bad to some of you OH WELL! It’s the fans who are putting the money in her pocket …. NOT YOU!! – So why all the unnecessary bitching? GET OVER IT!

  61. ASAP (As Sincere As Possible) November 14, 2011

    *sigh* The setting was so great and the dancers were so well trained and on point.The only thing that was missing to make this performance amazing was the main performer…Where she at?Where she at?Where she at?I could honestly see her throat moving up and down as she was desperately trying to reach the notes and she made a lot of mistakes too.It’s obvious that she’s growing as a performer, but excuse me for not applauding her for that after 6 albums 😮 She had a good energy, but when it comes to actual skill, sorry, but I didn’t see anything.And who the hell can resist that bass??Not even one dance step girl…Come on…

    If ‘Rated R’ Rihanna comes back for the 7th album with urban pop material, original videos, a real message to convey, better vocals and dancing skills, I’ll become a fan, though 😉

  62. KERIHILSON2NDCOMINGOFMJ. November 14, 2011

    theres alot of people doing it better than beyonce open ur eyes and stop hatng on other artist!!!!!!!

  63. KERIHILSON2NDCOMINGOFMJ. November 14, 2011

    @beyonce stans stop putting down other artist to make beyonce seem original……….

  64. jill November 14, 2011

    @HALF AMAZIN

    Truth Hurts, Rihanna is fading, this is going to be her last era.
    Deal!!!!

    I can’t believe you stan for this untalented chick. Popping out albums left and right. NO improvemnets what so ever.

    Take away the back track what do you have? She can’t sing to save her life, people on youtube out sing her on her own songs lol……… Ciara is about to snatch this girl wig.

  65. jill November 14, 2011

    @KERIHILSON2NDCOMINGOFMJ.

    Beyonce fans? I love Mariah Carey, Janet and any other artist that’s not Rihanna. Anyone with an ear for music would not be a fan of this untalented girl. Everyone that post is not a fan of beyonce so have a seat.

    Beyonce fans don’t have to attack this chick, beyonce actually have talent, she can sing without music.

    Karma is about to bite rihanna in the b***. She tried it with Ciara earlier this year.

  66. maria November 14, 2011

    When are her songs going to mature. It shouldn’t have to come with “oh she’s getting better”. Six albums in, she should be the best hands down. What artist doesn’t improve vocally having 6 albums out? RIHANNA, she doesn’t take music seriously. Quality music shouldn’t be rushed. Her new album TTT, sounds like trash, rejects from Loud or GGGB.

    She won’t be around at 30. Whats she going to do?

    Of course her tone deaf fans are going to take up for this trash. How can you like this music. She never been a good performer, she’s horrible. Her time will come, when her fans will get tired of the “same ole rihanna” giving 50% into her performances.

    Studio singer, she’s basic.

    If she win an AMA, she needs to give major thanks to her fans for buying her shitting music, sound engineers and her record label for seeing dollar signs on her. Oh well at least Beyonce and Jay-Z is making money off her so kudos.

  67. KERIHILSON2NDCOMINGOFMJ. November 14, 2011

    looks like karma has bitten beyonce and i dont see rihanna flopping on the charts anytime soon.

  68. KERIHILSON2NDCOMINGOFMJ. November 14, 2011

    @maria u sound like a hater get off this post .. riri stans need to drag u asap……..

  69. THE GREAT LACEFRONCE. November 14, 2011

    That was TERRIBLE. Rihanna can’t sing or dance or perform. She’s a studio creation and a no-talent hack. And her music is wack. Corny as f***. Only gay boys and fat girls like Rihanna because she’s twirly enough for gay guys and doesn’t make awkward girls feel unpretty.

  70. Lax November 14, 2011

    Rihanna is Fading can’t sing and sounds horrible all the way to the bank and
    beyond. Theres noting you Looneys can do or say to stop her from her climb up that ladder. And oh yeahhhhhh about those who do it better than RIHANNA Does
    more power to them, hide and let or make your broke ass see what she earns this year. RIHANNA iS A POWERFUL FORCE ALL AROUND THE GLOBE AND SHES GETTING EVEN BIGGER AND BETTER. Six years six Albums that is how you do the dam thing RIHANNA. RIHANNA Has long ago tapped into her inner strengths and with her get up off yo ass and do something attitude shes you can
    say with certanity that RIHANNA IS THE ONE WHO GOT AWAY!

  71. mariah November 14, 2011

    its slick iight lol it aint all dat

  72. Lax November 14, 2011

    Rihanna know that a dull axe requires great strength
    and you can bet your sweet asses that RIHANNA Knows
    that you must “KEEP YOUR AXE SHARPEN” Always And like
    i said earlier she might not be the best at anything but rest
    assured shes all up in the entertainment mix. Just think about
    how Mofo dull the entertainment industry would be without LIL
    MS. SUNSHINE, LOONEYS KISS A SKUNK IN HIS BOOTY, RIHANNA
    ISN’T GOING NO PLACE, I MEAN WHY SHOULD SHE ???? SHES PAID!!!!!!!!!

  73. Lax November 14, 2011

    Her stage “persona” is on lock and people enjoy her shows
    thats why they keep coming back for more. Rihanna is ruling

    love this new album! it sounds like old rihanna, and i have missed that sound, the lyrics are lackluster tho. its like as the years advance she loses depth. that bothers me, and idc what anyone says, her vocals are s*****. taking vocal lessons would improve her performances, because she has a nice natural tone

  76. Onyx November 14, 2011

    To me that was perfect.

  77. mobwife November 14, 2011

    OMG WTF? Is that Rihanna or the fool filming? Wait….what? “Why don’t you make some f**king noise”? Ummm, typical! This was awful! The video might support the song (I guess), but it doesn’t sound well live!

  78. Rihanna is a no-talent h**… November 14, 2011

    Rihanna has no talent and basically sucks ass. Her songs are bad and her singing’s a joke. Six albums in six years, with an average of an album a year should tell you something. It means that her team knows that she has a shelf date and is collecting as much chump change from the brainless idiots who they can con into buying the crap with her name on it before they reach the end of puberty and realize what fools they were for ever liking her b******* to begin with.

  79. Deveal2014 November 14, 2011

    I think people like her and buy her music because when you see her perform live or sing live you get a feeling you that could be you or you could do that too. Walk around singing badly behind a echo machine plus a track walk around naked and dance a lil bit every now and again and say make some f****** noise .

  80. Yellow Gorillah November 14, 2011

    loooooooooooooooool

    WTF

    I thought That was GREAT!

    And I drag rihanna when she fails live.

    The people who are given negative opinions are ALL Well known rihanna haters,

    And WHY THE F*** would rihanna go into choreography with this type of song,,,are you telling me when this song comes on in a club your going to start pulling some janet Jackson moves LOOOOOOOOOL No. This song is all about jumping and fist pumping

    And SAM is such a liar he say’s she did not dance and walked up and down but when you watch the video you see her do a little choreography near the middle, OHHH MY I add this is one of her TEN!!!! 02 dates for somebody who can’t perform, cant sing, can’t dance she really has SLAYED your fav with having the most 02 dates. It just shows your opinion is irrelevant because the world loves rihanna.

    And rihanna is talented there is no engineering done, no vocal fixing when she sings LIVE! and the girl sings live 99% of the time.

    + Can we not talk about beyonce because she is a none mother f****** factor this era!

    TALK THAT TALK

  82. College girl November 14, 2011

    I like Beyonce better then Rhianna but she did really great! So stop the hating!!! I really don’t like comparing the 2 but there music is so different and they r 2 different artist.

  83. JER November 14, 2011

    OH DAMN! WERQ GRRRL! Just because you don’t rely on heavy, stolen choreography doesn’t mean they’re not a great performer. Rihanna is a motherfucking rockstar, not a R&B diva. She’s in the lane of Gwen Stefani, not Janet

  84. ciara November 14, 2011

    @JER

    Have a seat, ciara is better then rihanna, rihanna is a bore!!!!! Gwen Stefani? Are you freaking serious? lol last time I checked Gwen can actually Sing, rihanna is not even in the lane of CASSIE. cassie can dance and sing her in a corner. Stop lying to yourself!!!

    Rihanna needs to steal some voice lessons…………………

    Deal!!!

    ^^^^ All Of This!

  86. DIONFATALEI November 14, 2011

    @CIARA

    All of that coming from a Caira stan? b**** shut up. Your fav can not compare vocally to Rihanna.

    Gwen Stefani is no more or less a tremendous vocalist than Rihanna. Clearly you haven’t seen Gwen Live, she stay off key like a m********** but she’s a f***** rock star and clearly its meant to sound like that. Artist like Gwen & Rihanna dont rely heavy on Choreo there more free spirited rock performers. But the difference with Rihanna is she can actually sing, watch her sing her ballads live, she clearly delivers.

  87. rihanna who? November 14, 2011

    Talk that Talk is TRASH TRASH TRASH, her album leaked and alot people don’t like it. She’s going to miss out on another #1 album. Her “career” is about to expire lol. No talent s****. Can’t wait for Brandy album 2012… Beyonce stans are not the only one that talks about rihanna so get over yourself. What does #1 singles prove? nothing! anyone can get a number one look at soulja boy. Rihanna is no different. Katy perry has more talent in her left thumb. Rihanna sucks. Her album will be #5 or 6. Mary J Blige, MJ and Nickelback. Support Good Music buy Mary. I could of man TTT on my computer. Check youtube these 10 year old kids sings better then Rhi who?

  88. Ciara November 14, 2011

    @DIONFATALEI

    Get out of here with that mess. Gwen is a rockstar NO Doubt ring a bell, Gwen can sing. Rihanna can’t, so its meant for rihanna to be off key? lol hahaha your stupid. Rihanna is a pop tart. Ciara can dance and sing, too bad rihanna can’t. Ciara is coming for that big forehead b****, her wig is going to be snatched. Watch and see 2012.

    Anyone can sing better then rihanna, get out of her ass. She’s not paying your bills. Tone deaf b****.

  89. mel November 14, 2011

    Call me when she be in the game for 20 years…… (being sarcastic)

  90. ME MYSELF AND I November 14, 2011

    it wasn’t bad 🙂 I wanna hear a televised high quality performance so I can really listen to the vocals, though.

  91. TheOuyonB November 14, 2011

    As I always say, beautiful girl, horrible vocals.. Point, blank, Period. She does record well enough to make the songs sound decent, however she has yet to blow me away live. never gives good vocals and is just beautifully boring on stage.

  92. COMMANDEROFTHEDANCEFLOOR November 14, 2011

    this was a good rihanna performance, and see i said “rihanna” performance, because she is not beyonce, she is not whitney, she is not gaga, or britney or madonna. she is rihanna and she performes good enough to sell out arenas across the world, is she the best? no but no one said she was. everyone’s problem is they constantly compare every artist, and people need to realize that everyone is unique you won’t get the same type of performances, you are not going to see rihanna dancing like beyonce, just like you won’t see beyonce giving lap dances, you won’t see gaga dancing like beyonce either, but you will get a theatrical performance.

    but at the end of the day, wether an artist is truly great, it is all only OPINIONS.

  93. COMMANDEROFTHEDANCEFLOOR November 14, 2011

    @MEL, oh @CIARA,

    same person, ciara is not snatching nobody’s wig! keri hilson outsold ciara’s last album. lol.

    rihanna’s lowest selling album outsold ciara’s last two albums combined! ciara has had one album sell 3 million and one 1 million the other two less than 500,000 each! Sorry to say but ciara will never sell like rihanna.

  94. RihannaNavy November 14, 2011

    @ Rihanna Who ?
    sit down!
    actually people have been applauding rihanna for the snippets off Talk That Talk.
    why do you think it was a Trending Topic on twitter all weekend long??
    I’ll be laughing in your face come the day TTT is the number 1 album.. it’s the BEST POP ALBUM this year! and the most anticipated.
    We Found Love is heading to it’s 3rd week on top of the HOT 100. and your maaad!

  95. Robier November 14, 2011

    lmao

  96. nicegirl November 15, 2011

    Live performances is something she’s not good at. She needs a break so she can improve and gain energy.

  97. nicegirl November 15, 2011

    Not her worst performance though. She’s improved a slight bit.

  98. aisha aguilera keys November 15, 2011

    oh my God, THAT was awful! LOL! “, Rihanna has often seen many of her hits ascend to the top of the charts without a supporting live performance in sight.”- yea, and the reverse can be said for other artists- they perform well but don’t have n° 1 singles. Don’t make me say names, Sam! Yea, Rihanna, thell the crowd to “sing”, cause u sure as hell can’t!
