Rihanna’s Video Of The Year at the MTV VMA’s capped a near year-long campaign in support of her sixth studio album, Talk That Talk (released November 21, 2011). The album’s string of global hits spanned over a year, starting with the worldwide #1 smash, “We Found Love” (featuring Calvin Harris). The song spent 10 weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100, beating Rihanna’s personal best of 7 weeks at #1 in 2007, for “Umbrella” (featuring Jay-Z).
