With Hurricane Beyonce fast approaching, it seems her one time heir apparent Rihanna has smartened up and decide to work on that voice.

We kid you not.

Last night, for the first time since performing ‘Stay‘ on X Factor UK last winter, the Pop Princess served a decent vocal showing at the Montreal outing of her ‘Diamonds World Tour’, despite arriving 70 minutes after initially scheduled.

Sure, while her voice is still enough to strike fear in the drum of many an unsuspecting ear, her delivery yesterday evening was kind of decent- clearly inspired by the acclaim afforded to real vocalists like Rita Ora, Ciara and of course…Queen Beyonce.

Not sure what we mean?

Watch below…

Think she heard ‘Bow Down’ yet?

Your thoughts?
