In the mood for a brand spanking new Rihanna performance?
You are? Well, if you a consider yourself a fan of the chart regular, now might be a good time to look away.
Indeed, once you see the performance she served up during the Twickenham leg of her ‘Diamonds World Tour‘, you may find yourself questioning your stance on her as a live act, but more importantly….her title as a ‘singer’.
Find out what we mean below…
As we collect our jaws (and ears) from the floor, please feel free to weigh in on what you just saw below…
man i really hope the Rihanna reign dont let up, cause if it does u guys will have no stories to report..damn get off her d***!!
These cats are out here getting 700 comments a day because of this s***.
I just counted 500 on today alone. All because of Rihanna so they better cut her a check.
Like seriously, we get it. Grape Juice thinks Rihanna sucks but contrary to everyones negative opinions Rihanna and her career as a successful artist remain unbothered.
stfu she did fine.
I thought so to. But then again perhaps me and the millions others who listen to her songs are all just tone deaf. *shrug* At this point i’ve come to the conclusion Rihanna shade and Beyonce praise are the two things that keep the wifi connection on over at TGJ headquarters.
WELL DAYUM!!!! GIVE HER A BREAK FOR ‘ONCE’ PLEASE!!!
GIve Nicki a break first.
eat my p**** b****!! ok i’ll give that B**** a break if taylor give her p**** walls a break yooooou repulsive S***!!!
Okay, this blog is now boring. How many times is there going to be an article and video stating that Rihanna cannot sing? I think we all get it by now if we didn’t before. I would prefer that you didn’t post anything instead of relentless Rihanna posts! And don’t get me started on the Elijah Blake! Is there no other artists than you can report on?
If you need some fresh idea’s email me and i’ll spill.
Oh, for those who do the regular “well you don’t need to read” I didn’t
I’m sorry but where did it say she couldn’t sing. She said that herself when she mumbled the second verse.
you may find yourself questioning your stance on her as a live act, but more importantly….her title as a ‘singer’.
Read between the lines or in black and white. And all of this is after you questioned me and i went and read the post.
Damn! We all know and realize Rihanna isn’t the best singer/performer but give her a break!!! She’s doing her thing and I respect that!
Love,
A Hive Member
So your telling me people actually pay £ to go see her perform?
If people thought she couldn’t sing, then she wouldn’t be selling these stadiums out. Get off her d***. + I don’t recall Beyoncé doing what she’s doing right now :/
Why are you bringing Beyonce in this!? Beyonce is a waaaaaay better performer than Rihanna so don’t even go there….Leave her out of it! Stadiums or not…. Beyonce is already set to gross more than 100 million! LEAVE BEYONCE OUT THIS!
If Beyonce is so good why couldn’t she sell out stadiums?
It’s not about stadiums!!!!! Beyonce has 6 consecutive shows in London… All sold out…. You don’t think she could easily knock it out in two at Twickenham!? Beyonce has said it before… Its all about the experience…Arenas are more intimate! MJ was set to do 50 shows at the 02… Why didn’t he just sell out 10 at a stadium?? Beyonce could easily sell out a stadium…Her ticket prices are high as all get out and she’s still sold out! Can you imagine if thirty dollar Beyonce tickets went on sale??? Do you know how many people wanted to go to her show but couldn’t because the prices??? Lets not go there! Beyonce is a better performer hands down! Just compare their Ticketmaster ratings!
Beyonce = Quality over Quantity
@Beautiful Can Mariah even sell out arenas.
I’m not a Mariah stan…. I just like the song 🙂 So try again! But to answer your question… Probably not…but Mariah’s prime was years ago! I will ask the same question towards Rihanna ten years from now! I
Nobody goes to see Rihanna to sing live. I am not a Rihanna by any means but this performance is exactly what she has been doing the entire tour and this is why they did not choose What Now as a single. She can’t sing it live. She skipped all the big notes and danced and mumbled around. Sadly, half the people in the audience are either high or stuck on her beautiful looks and the “thug” demeanor to care. They are paying for the party IDGAF atmosphere. The days of going to a concert and hearing amazing live vocals are gone. Mariah and Beyonce are the closest we will get to an all around entertaining show without cussing every five seconds.
Actually beyonce just did a couple of stadiums recently & they sold out , go check your facts
I’M NOT EVEN A RIHANNA STAN AND THE CONTINUOUS NEGATIVE ARTICLES ABOUT RIHANNA IS BECOMING ANNOYING.
TGJ ONLY POST
1. POINTLESS ARTICLES ABOUT BEYONCE ( I LOVE HER TOO BUT DAMN )
2. RIHANNA SHADE
3. MUSIC
LIKE BE EQUAL ABOUT THE ARTICLES YOU WRITE, BECAUSE THIS PAST WEEK HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT NEGATIVE RIHANNA ARTICLES AND TGJ IS ACTING MORE LIKE THE BEYHIVE THAN PROFESSIONAL BLOGGERS.
You answered your own question boo boo. Rihanna makes them the most money so they’re gonna keep writing about her.
Ha impact.
Did you forget Beyonce put them in her tour video. There’s more that meets the eye, that’s all imma say.
I have a serious question. Do the Navy think that was good?
Her voice I just can’t….
O*M*F*G!!!
Please @the Navy.
This is the 3rd consecutive ‘Rihanna Performance Post’ in less than 5 hours, all of which have collected 100+ comments of the same, insipid arguments.
If you cannot see past @Samantha’s foolery now, then I don’t know if you ever will.
Rih. truly does have a ‘Magic C***’ huh @TGJ.
*Leaves*
@Jared
I just wanna apologies for my behaviour earlier it was inappropriate and very childish.
I’m really sorry I feel bad about myself now. You’re gorgeous by the way
TGJ are actually complimenting Rihanna when you think about it. Every post on her gets 100 comments and more and that equals web traffic that they use to promote FLOPS like Beyonce, Rita, Mariah and Nohitara.
THAT’S NOTHING BUT CHRIS BROWN’S C*** SHOVED DOWN HER THROAT.
And where do Jayz shove His.
Why do I get the feeling TGJ have a deal with Def Jam to post a certain amount of Rihanna threads a week?
Well I think she did great.
Then you are deaf.
Worse than her Hero cover tbh.
Here comes the weave worshippers
Weave Worshippers lmfao.
lmfao! she did fine, are y’all still mad at the fact that NONE of you got invited to be a part of the 777 entourage? LMFAO, you stay on Rih’s d***, please go seethe for Beyoncé’s approval, she pays y’all more dust than that finalized single release.
Oh back to rihanna, We know that Rihanna can’t perform Live why keep posting amateur videos? I don’t like her but atleast she tries. Let this girl live. Its enough now
B****, Rihanna is better live than your payola using trick b**** fave so hush.
Mariah is 43 and Rihanna is 25
You can’t really compare than. At 25 Mariah was killing every singer with vocals can’t say the same with rihanna.
You tried though.
Have a seat Ms. Fenty. It’s a terrible dangerous and slippery slope to come for Mariah. MariahIsMusic1 was telling the truth. It’s a known fact that people go to her concerts to have a good time and act a damn fool. If they get hit in the face with a microphone then it was a good night.
Oh back to rihanna, We know that Rihanna can’t perform Live why keep posting amateur videos? I don’t like her and yeah she’s horrible live but Let this girl live. Lol
This is right, we all know what to expect from her and as the saying goes,If You don’t know me by now. She is not even trying to be nobody but Rihanna shes owns it and many people laughts but she owns it and keep it moving. It amazes me how if they are not poking fun, at her Performances and singing then they are bad mouthing her because shes not light bright and dam near White, With Her it’s dam if she do and Dam if she don’t.
They say she can’t Perform,sing,and shes selling tickets and music.They say she not as good as her counter parts and yet for the last four going on five years she is the artist who is on the list of the highest paid under Thirty would SOMEBODY pleas Explain why shes getting paid all this money.
How is she getting paid for not singing as good as ??????I wish i knew who she was being compared to.
As things stand right now who else other then Beyonce of course, is doing it up like she is doing it Black,white or Latino.
She can’t sing great yet shes the artist who helped Jayz and ti get their International Hits shes is doing many things right and its fun to see And the Insiders know shes the SHYTS. , AND SO DO TGJ,LOL.
Flop h**, Ciara has already ended Rihanna’s career. Rihanna is scared to release new music because there’s too much competition. She scared to Queen Ciara.
I know Mariah fans aren’t talking about Rihanna live.
Mariah has paid her dues and sang her ass off for years. She mothered all your fav.’s and still has it in her to go for another round as well, so don’t come for her.
Who gave you permission to speak? Go do some Dirty Laundry and go back into the shadows.
Well..these posts are getting old, boring and repetitive. There’s a “rihanna struggles” post about 3 times a day.
That is clear for all to see and this STRUGGLE seem real.
The fact that Mariah and Rihanna fans are comparing whose better live is the biggest kii of the day. They’re both s***.
You’ve never lied m’lday.
Two s***** trash vocal b******
The attention may be off of Ci-Error at the moment but you will be back in your cave when she sells 17K in the first week. I’m so “sorry” that I “got [you] good”, but no “sweat” off my “body.” “Party” it up while you can.
“I’m out.”

Beyonce Says it best
I wonder why Rihanna never replies to them.
Rihoenna has mold and bacteria on her h***** v*****.
36 comments in 10 minutes. The Queen of TGJ.
I hate Herprihs too but I kinda agree with some of these people, is this all you have to report about? I don’t think the urban focus of this blog is helping because if it’s not Bey, Rih, Nicki, or Mariah it only gets like 5 comments.
Is this an old or new post im sworn you posted this before.
I remember that this video was already posted on TGJ lol. But damn its worse seeing it posted a second time.
The post needs to be called Sam struggling to get another hit.
BORING!!!! I am sick of low quality Rihalienna and Beyoldce videos everyday post on Kelly flopping and Ciara winning that’s what the f*** the ppl wanna see
Cedric would be lucky to even open with anything close to 70k.
Kelly flopped where are the RowlingFlops now lmaooooooooo
and where is CiCi? Getting sued and flopping like a fish out of water before the album ever released.
Have several seats. The nerve of y’all to even speak is beyond me.

^Sam should post that every time he promotes a video that may be harmful to his commenters and viewers. Specifically, any Rihanna video with sound…
So lame
Its sad that commenters are begging you to stop posting& degrading this girl its old tired not interesting
After the 500th time even the majority of Rihannas biggest haters are over it.
*Yawn*
Predictable. Expected. Fail shade. Struggling to get a hit thread.
Let me play this song for you Sam, I see that those madhouses in the UK are full, you are always welcome here 😉

Taylor Swift >> Rihanna
In sales
Impact
Even LIVE
*logs out*
Both of them g***** gallons of C** b****!!!
37K. She’ll be lucky if she sells over 30K 🙁
The problem with this b**** is she doesnt train her voice or even rehearse I mean I will always give credit where its due this girl doing good RIGHT NOW.. She doesnt put much effort in her performance, her attitude is HORRIBLE and will be her downfall cause the b**** gotta big ass mouth that she cant seem to close sometimes.. There’s no way I’m going to spend my money on someone who doesnt even put much effort in but its yall money so do what you want. It’s just some people have really low standards I guess…… 🙂
I love Rihanna and I love this song. Glad she is singing it on tour. Rihanna is a gem and a blessing to the current music industry. Imagine how boring a year without Rihanna would be, we would be, Rihanna shouldn’t take a break until after album #10. I mean what will I do with my playlist in a year without Riri, no thanks.
Love you Rih. Keep on making HistoRIH.
I am rooting for Ciara but if the bitter Cici STAN does not stop it, I will be getting the leaked version of Ciara and will be purchasing Flop a good game to use as my dogs freesbie.
I already spilled the tea on Samantha, I don’t read his articles anymore, just come for the comments. He has a useless sociology degree, this is all he can do.
2013 has been an extremely terrible year in music so far except for Kanye, Daft Punk, and Vampire Weekend. Rih, Macklemore, and D!nk are not helping with their tired and generic hits.
Yet Lovebird says this n**** t***** Rihanna is better than my fave live the delusional….. Can’t even sing a easy song like that live LOL.
While Taylor is slaying her concerts with “22”,”I Knew You Were Trouble” and killing them live something Rihanna could never achieve.
Black people are supposed to be soulful what’s wrong with this b****? Tries too hard too be white
Take your ass somewhere. While we don’t like Rihanna’s performances at the moment I sure as hell wouldn’t be caught dead listening to Kidz Bop 100 featuring T Swift’s biggest sing-a-longs.
Keep the racist comments for your hillbilly town meeting tonight. We don’t need them here.
I didn’t watch, but TGJ this is getting OLD man. Like foreal we all know Rihanna is sub-par when it comes to singing live. GIVE IT A REST. TGJ is the main reason why the HIVE and Navy go at it everyday. Yes I will admit that I have taken part of this mess, but not any damn more. Sam keep it cute hun. It’s not that your journalism is bad of anything, just stop it with the Neg Rihanna post and the pointless BEYONCE post. We support your blog just like we support our fav.
I’ve been supporting your blog for the past 2 1/2 years. Your readership has drop aleast a good 40%. With that said if you keep this mess up that READERSHIP gone drop to about 80% or more.
When you think about other Pop stars that has been called untalented their entire careers like Madonna, Janet Jackson ect, ect….despite the fact that they have done amazing records and actually been involved in every album good or bad, play instruments and has improved in every part of what an artist should evolve, amazing and Iconic performances, a legacy based not only in gimmicks but actually in the music itself and then you have artists like Rihanna makes you think ‘haven’t we been unfair to others’ cause she has no comparison when it comes to who is worse than her, not even Britney, at least she had the dance but this beautiful girl has nothing other than her S.E.X. Appeal, i like her and i think she’s s*** but the girl is illiterate when it comes to music, i’m sorry fans, you can’t win this.
I see no lies……It is what it is.
Why doesn’t this site post Taylor Swift Posts she’s also in Tour and selling out American Stadiums something beyonce and rihanna will never achieve?
You can’t be serious.
