The US arm of her fan base may have failed to keep her new single at #1, but good luck to anyone trying to stop Rihanna‘s French fans from taking her to the top in that market.
For, proving that the star’s commercial power is truly international, the Pop purveyor now sits atop iTunes France with her new single ‘FourFiveSeconds’, currently outselling Bruno Mars‘ feel-good jam ‘Uptown Funk.‘
Good news below…
Pictured alongside Beyonce above, Ms. Fenty now sits pretty at #1 in France while occupying Top 3 spots in other European markets before the release of the studio album on which the single is set to appear.
Her French success comes after River Island executive Ben Lewis publicly thanked her for boosting the company’s sales with the clothing line she launched in partnership with them.
The ‘Telegraph’ reports:
River Island said that sales grew 4pc to £839m in the year to December 28, which saw the retailer collaborating with Rihanna for the Rihanna for River Island collection.
The profile of the brand was boosted by the tie-up with the singer, which Mr Lewis described as “fantastic”. He insisted that both parties had always agreed that the collaboration would only last for a year.
“We agreed it was right to work together for one year only. It was a collaboration not a merger, he said. “It built a reputation for our brand globally. There are no plans to work again with Rihanna at the moment, there is nothing more to say about working with another designer or celebrity, but we are not ruling it out in the future.”
In other chart news, Ciara‘s ‘I Bet’ impacted iTunes USA’s Top 40 when it turned up at #39’s door, doing so after Beyonce nabbed her latest UK Top 40 single with the infectious ‘7/11.‘
Back in the USA, Nicki Minaj‘s ‘Truffle Butter’ rockets to #15 on iTunes USA while Elijah Blake‘s ‘Sing For Me’ surpassed sales of 21,000 units, reaching the 21,187 mark as Sia‘s ‘Chandelier‘ swings at #66.

The song is garbage, but congrats anyways.
Oh Na Ns! What’s Ha Name??? R I H A N N A
–
This song will NOT be her 14th number 1 tho. Mariah’s record is still in-tact!
That record might as well be handed over. Lol, I’m joking, time is on our side. 😉
Hm, we shall see.
RIHANNA, is her name 🙂
Well obviously The Titanic won’t care since “No one cares about European countries” *rolls eyes* In other news, Bey is the most followed person on Instagram…
Beyonce has 25.1 followers Kim K has 25.2 ,,
Kim Kardashian is the most followed right now as we speak
France? Lol. Why is it falling down the US charts.
LMFAO!!!, Yet iBet is rising quickly and is the most added/Gained RnB song on iTunes US main chart.
Her dry raspy vocals on this track reflect the work ethic she posesses
Dry raspy voice? Lmao come again when lana fad Rey manages to pull the tampon out of her throat that’s been there since her SNL performance
It’s an okay song, but a little off in some ways. The fact that no one can tell if it’s her first single or a teaser giving people insight into her new sound seems sloppy. Her comeback song after a few years being a collaboration probably seemed safe…..I don’t think it did her any favors.
I agree. I was looking for her to being showcased, not a cast single.
I’m ready for another song from her, tbh..
I love Rih, but the song, hasn’t captured my attention.
I’m glad she is trying new things, but this track sounds a bit muddled.
Congrats, on the single charting high on a global scale, tho..
It sounded like they were trying so hard to be different!!!!!! Or maybe its just Rihject’s voice that fails to capture the feel of the song????/
Nah. It sounds like she is trying to find her stride in the song, but Kanye warbling, over her is just too distracting.
You’re right about it sounding like a try hard.
To me it sounds like a studio jam session/warm up. How this became a single, is a mystery to me.
In fairness, every artist have at least one ‘awkward’ single in their arsenal, so I think, she’ll be for the duration of R8.
* she’ll be fine
Miss International. *drops mic*
Its not even #1 in the UK though.
Yawn, we’ll see when the BB charts shut you haters up.
BB isn’t ‘internatinal’ though
I must admit I was expecting more from Rihanna. Cute that its #1 in certain countries but its still an underperformance for the ‘ghloballll seengles kween’ . She needs to come harder.
TGJ make up yall mind first yall said it’s underperforming and now yall are saying its winning and yall clearly didn’t read biiboard article from yesterday when they said fourfive seconds might have a STRONG DEBUT
It’s a damn flop ok
# I flop lets not go their remember I flop will not even chart on the bubbling under chart 🙂
The NAZI have to admit that this song is very boring and the only reason it’s getting so much hype is because of Paul..If Rihject did dis song herself, the critics would have hated it. Everyone keeps saying it’s a departure for her, it actually isn’t she has songs that sound lyk this. And P.s I’m not being a hater, I’m just my honest opinion….LOL
But why is not No 1 yet in the U.S.A????????? Honestly I’m actually quite shocked that it was not No 1 on itunes after lyk an hour!!!!!!!!!!!
610k in 3 days on 17.99$ you would think a certain “icon” would be able to repeat this feat with a 1.29$ single
honestly the song is a grower so it will move at a slowly paste
Why use the pic with Beyonce???? Lololol Yall are too obsessed and that’s coming from one bey stan to another smh.
Lol
The song is horrible, but anyways R****** looks like she can’t believe she’s standing next to such greatness. Her IDOL. cute
Girrrrrrrrrl I heard about you during the snow storm hunny.. Really TROLL_HIVE, REALLY?
Girrrrrrrrrrrl. Beyonce would be SO disappointed.
Lmao b**** don’t try it hunny..I was snowed in cooking for my man. What were you doin girl? Trolling the streets looking for shelter?
@TROLL_HIVE Girl I heard you were down in the village looking for shelter with the resident trannies. They said that since the train stations were closed and you couldn’t vogue for petty change, you couldn’t front the rent for your room and board for the night. My cousin works for GMHC and he says they have a program for pre-ops like you girl, why didn’t you go there? They would have gave you a meal or 2, a roof to sleep under, a dose of generic hormones to hold you over until you can get enough money to get ur room rental and you would have been surrounded by the rest of the cünty trannies, drags and butch/fem ballroom queens in NYC. You could have been vogueing with your sisters and letting them have you all in the same night girl. Anything beats walking around the village looking for someone to host you girl
Sad thing is you seem to know about all the programs yet ur friend could’nt hook you up with shelter? You’re not making sense girl.
Of course I know about programs, how else can I help spread knowledge in MY community if I only take concern in myself and which dïck on jack’d I can hop on for the night, then I would be you- TROLL_HIVE(Prismatic). But girl conDRAGulations they opened the trains back up so you can go back to vogueing in time square for petty cash. How’s your duck walk looking these days, miss thing?
Honey I dont need you to spread your “knowledge” my way. I wasnt the one trolling the streets of Nyc last night looking for change, shelter and digging through the alley trash cans. If only you had a cell phone, you could have begged a man on jackd to take you in..oh well..The Library should be closing soon..good luck gurl. 😉
Sis I have nothing but love for you. There is no TROLL in that HIVE better than the troll of the hive, MISS TROLL_HIVE(Prismatic). And just to show you how much of a real ass b***** I am I even supported your show (see post down below) and gave the girls a slight preview of what to expect from your show:The TROLL_HIVE CUNTperience. You should get a couple more singles/quarters in your hat the coming days bish. You can thank me later sis.
I actually think the song is great. It’s a grower 🙂 and besides I’m sure she’ll release other singles that are more radio friendly.
It is number one in 38 countries….winning Navy
Billboard says it’s poised to make a huge BB debut, when the video is released it’ll only help the single more Congrats Rih she’s #winning and taking musical risks while others are regressing!
and while others well… just stopped existing I guess
Lets not forget that streaming isn’t taken into account. Grammys a month away and a video,it could be #1
And with a folk/country song too, that sort of music isn’t very popular in Europe.
‘
Man down was also a major hit in France, French Navi representing.
‘
WINhanna
Taylor’s 1989 is still at 2, above Meghan Trainor now, who’s down to 3!
TAYLOR SWIFT 81,471 -12%
MEGHAN TRAINOR. 53,326 -73%
Does this mean Tyler, Trollsus and Prismatic (Slay_hive) are extending their residency for most pressed and steamed queeny bottoms on all WINhanna TGJ posts?
Yea…
Funny, how you already hold the title of being the most irritating bottomless poverty stricken troll on every BEYWINNING POSTS…………(P.S, I GOT A RECORDING OF #FOURFIVEE.TFOREHEAD BEFORE IT WAS EDITED..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaIuP6s3kUc
Blah blah blah, I don’t care
But did you see RIHJECTION slay that song on the beach tho????? You should be proud!!!!!
Give it up this song is crap. Well at least Rihanna’s struggle vocals anyway
LOL WINanna??? Why is she sliding down US iTunes???? She still isn’t #1 after 3 days…
SCREAMING!!!!!!!!!! (P.S THIS IS #FOURFIVESECONDSFROMFALLINGDOWNTHECHART BEFORE STUDIO MAGIC…..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaIuP6s3kUc
#3 is not ‘sliding down’, dear. I think you should check the current chart position of 7/11.
7/11 is currently perched in the Top 20 with absolutely no promo. Out charted majority of Rihanna singles besides stay and diamonds and made more impact than the entire ARTFLOP era as whole. You were saying?
Hey @Beysus what about in Scottland iTunes? Wanna cling to your own receipts or you just gon sit there and ride our nuttsacks?
Lol and I thought you were just ignoring me earlier…. But continue to try and fail to shade me over my country which you can’t spell right… CONTINUE…
7/11 peaked at 13 which is higher than can’t remember to purchase you flop it up or flop now and that s*** still chillin’ in the top 20 3 month in whitout any promo
Hey @Beysus sorry I spelled your countries name wrong, I guess that means I don’t care enoughabout it to know. But you know what the funny thing is, is that you would think the iPhone’s autocorrect would have caught it but I guess Siri cares just as much about it as I do. Ouch
You should’ve learned some English at school before depending on your iphone…. Are you gonna post any USEFUL info???
Currently #1 in 38 countries, #3 itunes US. Rihanna is a very powerful woman to have this blog and the rest of beyonce’s fans so insecure and pressed. Now they’re grasping at straws to ignore the fact that her new song has already outperformed any beyonce single released in the past year and a half. And there’s gonna be even more meltdowns when she hits the Hot 100. Rihanna is about to own the charts again so you all may as well get ready to deal with it.
You do realize, this much if not more NAZI were more pressed about that digital drop on DEC.13 2013….http://thatgrapejuice.net/2013/12/breaking-news-beyonce-releases-visual-album-itunes-today-download/
Rihannas vocals are bad though, no shade just all facts. I like riri
LOL DIGGING UP POSTS FROM 2 YEARS AGO ONLY PROVES HOW PRESSED THE FLEAS ARE LOL.
You fool, it’s very easy to find tho!!!!!!! GOOGLE YOUR FRIEND H**!!!!!! LOL. P.S ANYBODY KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK, NO ONE SEEM TO CARE ABOUT IT..LOL
Nice try no ones insecure over these basic itunes positions, just gathering the deluded Navi when Beyonces expensive album went to #1 in over 100 countries and sold 80k in three hours. This bish tried the same and failed miserably. Now you and your alter ego LOL can have a stadium and go get Gaga a platinum plaque.
so bleachyonce went #1 in an hour and sold 600k in 3 days with a full album and this bish is not able to go #1 with a 1$ song in the biggest market of the world screaming
How is this is how we flop sis?
roar the “1ST” single of prism went #1 out if the gate and prism sold 3.5 milli ww I wish that kinda success to the delayed 8 era which from the look of things right now is not likely
LOL ANY HOOKER THAT BUYS HER OWN ALBUMS CAN SELL THAT MUCH IN AN HOUR LOL. WHY CAN’T ANY OF THAT H0’S SINGLES DO THE SAME? LOL
because 17.99$ >0.99$
LOL SLAYANNA KEEPS THE BUGS SEETHING LMAO. THE QUEEN SITS ON TOP WHILE FLOP11 CONTINUES TO BE NON-EXISTENT ON THE CHARTS LOL
HOW IS PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK DOING ON THE CHARTS??????
LOL BETTER THAN DESPERATEYONCE RIGHT ABOUT NOW LOL. SO CONTINUE CLINGING TO GAGA, CUZ FLOP11 AND THE FLOPLESS REMIX ARE STILL DOA LOL.
‘flop 11’ out charted, G.A.Y, W**** it up, Flop Now and Can’t remember to purchase you imma need you to come harder than that.
I just realized that PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK has not sold over a million worldwide!!!!!!!!!!!!DAMN #THESTRUGGLE #GAGAISDONE
The lies though, 7/11 stayed in the US top 20 for 2 months (and is still there) no promo at all. Try again.
elle eau elle in what galaxy Flopga is doing better than the Queen ? the delusion is real out there
Rihanna is everything. The song is doing good.
Reading comprehension is so key. TGJ clearly said the song is underperforming in America but is slaying worldwide. You Navi members were too busy NOT buying her albums to pay attention in class or nah?
LOL CLEARLY YOU CAN’T SPOT THE FAILED SHADE IN THE ARTICLE. THEN AGAIN, YOU STAN FOR A 90’S HAS BEEN SO YOU WOULDN’T BE ABLE TO COMPREHEND ANYTHING FROM THIS DECADE, WOULD U? LOL
LOL AND WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME ANYBODY BOUGHT A MONICA ALBUM? LMAO
WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME “WATCHMEPUKE” HAD AN ALBUM SELL OVER 3 MILLION COPIES WORLDWIDE????
And what about cheating comprehension? Why did Monica know Future was cheating on Ciara and not tell her? Is that how friends bheave? Let me know sis.
Girl, like everyone, Monica told Ci about him from the start, but Ci didn’t want to hear it.
It wasn’t shade if David wrote it. He loves her.
ciFlops stans calling the song trash where is I bet?
In the top 40 boo boo. Where is Rihanna’s p**** elasticity?
Upon hearing the song I knew taking this musical risk could catch fire or crash and burn as of right now it seems to be stuck in the middle. Time will only tell how things will turn out in the end. But Shout out to Rihanna for stepping out of her normal zone of microwave music type singles that will fade out as the season changes.
Rihanna I’m so glad you finally started to give us raw, stripped down vocals like you used to back in the day. Was starting to think you only cared about Top 40 hits but you’ve never given this much raw vocals since back in your vocalist days. Sing Robyn!!!!

Any TGJ In the New York City area need to come down to the 42nd Street Time Square subway station and support Atlanta’s Own,
CUNTry Southern Bell, Miss TROLL_HIVE 007(aka Prismatic, formerly Slay_Hive). She mixes a fusion of ballroom vogue, ATL twerk, country square dance, beyonce bop and praise dancing. She performs every night on the 1/2 hour between the hours of 2pm-11pm. If you thought the Beyonce Experience was a slay then you’re going to GAG when you see the TROLL_HIVE CUNTperience. I support my sis, show us Yankees how it’s done baby girl WERK!

*single
Dead @ people buying this song in Portugal… We don’t use her since LSM with JT… #Noshade
4 5 seconds reached number one in over 50 countries. I Bet can’t even reach number one once in any country yet u called rih a flop. Ciara stans are hypocritical and delusional
Lol this is not a generic song. So some have to warm up to it. Beyonce’s album sales were front loaded.. It isn’t doing much currently. You can move a few million albums, but you singles are stuck at the start line. So much for these marketing ploys. Lol do your thang Rihanna, what an International Megastar !!!!
Sales are sales and Beyonce still outsold Rihanna, still got platinum singles and a multi platinum album out of it so your ‘front loaded’ excuses is tired. Especially when everyone pretty much paid the whole Unapologetic era and it’s songs dust after Stay. Struggling for a whole year to go platinum vs multi platinum in the first 6 months (the only album to achieve that besides Taylor) I know which one I’d rather.
Your* Lol
Rihanna looks stunning in that picture by herself also..
Sorry but the song is mess. You get Paul AND Kanye on your song and that’s the basic mess you come up with. It’s a single, I thought this was her forte? I thought the Navy was all about #1? Now it’s ‘Top 5’ lol. You weren’t saying that when Beyonce went to #2 with Drunk in love. But then again, her sold more than this single 10x over when it first dropped. No matter what excuses the navy makes the song is dead and there’s nothing ‘amazing’ about either. The fact that you can’t tell if it’s lead single or not is enough to tell you how poorly put together it is. Try again!
Her album*
Yup #BOOM
Mess at people saying 45S is a flop when it’s at 1st in WW Itunes…
why that picture on the post tho? it’s a too obvious flame thingy. looks like something sam would do.
Lol Rihanna’s doing her thing with an alternative single.. It’s great to see a Ciara song doing so awesome as well.. Marketing ploys moved those albums. It didn’t have longevity because it didn’t have the hits. All of Rihanna’s albums still go platinum though, along with her having massive hits..
Look, whatever theory you come up with is your opinion. Stop acting like its factual. Receipts are receipts and Beyonce WON the era and you will deal. Isn’t Rihanna doing the same with 4flopseconds? Beyonce has a hit, Drunk in Love and shes STILL currently in the Top 20. So sit.
