    WORK rihanna <3

  10. Rowland July 5, 2016

    LMAO 4…Self Titled and Lemonade says hi DELUSIONAL

  11. Datredd23 July 5, 2016

    By the time all North American shows are calculated she probably be close to 50 mill just in the US alone that’s a great tour gross stop hating Beyhive! Looking at pics from her stadium shows in Europe she will be just fine her stage is not pushed to the middle of the stadium for damn sure. I’m hoping she can top DWT gross is she heads some more shows I think she definitely will her tour is nowhere near a flop tour ! Now Gwen has a flop tour Rihanna is nowhere close to flopping!

    • Datredd23 July 5, 2016

      *adds

    • Nahh July 5, 2016

      The stage in the middle thing is so corny especially when that stage in the middle is accounting for more than 85% of the seats in the building can’t say the same for rih

  12. JOHNVIDAL July 5, 2016

    Can she sing or perform at all though? 🙂

  13. Keri Qween July 5, 2016

    $50 million? It’ll gross 90-100 million when everything is sent in and accounted for..at minimum. All of the tour dates haven’t even went in yet.

  14. Datredd23 July 5, 2016

    She’s not Katy perry she isn’t going to do 200 shows just to get the gross up but I think she will add more dates in Australia

  15. HailLegendBeysus July 5, 2016

    Chile…. Slay a ton sis… I guess. ???????

    • Datredd23 July 5, 2016

      50 mill tour gross in the US is commendable

      • HailLegendBeysus July 5, 2016

        50m the States is not commendable for someone who has 14 #1s and has her Stan base trying desperately to sit her with Legends! I think she’ll do $50m when all is said and done.
        .
        $50m is a sad number for someone with Rihannas # of hits.
        .
        During the Beyonce Experience Hey had 24 shows that grossed $24m and this before she was an established touring force and ticket prices were cheaper than. Bottom line is fRih is and forever will be a singles artists!

    • Datredd23 July 5, 2016

      She is in the top 10 female grosses of tours of all time she doing well as a touring force at the age of 28. She Is not just a singles artist you need to learn the definition artists like Jason derulo and Flo Rida are considered “singles artists” they don’t have any albums in the top selling albums of the last decade like Rih does

      • HailLegendBeysus July 5, 2016

        The girl has practically been on tour every year since her debut with the exception of 2012 and 2015 lmfao!! The bitxh better be in the top 10! She is the definition of a singles artists! She has 8 albums out but only has about 31m in album sales. She delivers all these #1 from every album yet her sales stay stuck at the 3m mark! Hmmmm….

      • Datredd23 July 5, 2016

        She released every year she never gave her albums a chance at longevity her album sales are 40 million plus she is a black female give her props

    • Datredd23 July 5, 2016

      In 11 years she’s been on 4 major tours that’s it

      • HailLegendBeysus July 5, 2016

        Her album sales most definitely not in the 40m mark LMFAOOO!!!!
        .
        Please!! these excuse
        GGGB had 80 dates
        Last Girl On Earth had 65 dates
        Loud Tour had 98 dates
        Diamonds Tour had 96 dates
        Monster Tour had 6 dates (Stadium Tour)
        .
        FRih has had 5 major tour’s and is going on her 6th! I’ll give you the first 2 tour’s. They were small.

    • Datredd23 July 5, 2016

      Who’ says her albums says aren’t at 40 million plus her label reported 50 million plus

      • HailLegendBeysus July 5, 2016

        Umm… The RIAA, IFPI and BPI. You know… the biggest tracker’s of music sales. When you put them all together her sales are at about 31m. Mariah Carey’s label also claimed she sold 200m albums but receipts show 150m WW. If we’re going by record label claims Mariah would be at 270m records sold Celine would be at 250m records sold and Whitney would be at 230m sold. BTW Rihannas certified sales are about 190m WW not the 230m Def Jam Claims lol!

  16. Datredd23 July 5, 2016

    People always wanna throw that word flop out no matter what these artists are achieving ! Either there in the illuminati or there a flop these are the ways people with a keyboard and no life try and discredit the success of others ! what have y’all done lately even close to being on par with this!

    • HailLegendBeysus July 5, 2016

      You typed this dumbass comment yet tried discrediting Bey’s tour by insinuating her stage is in middle of her stadium. The Slavi always self contradicting.

      • Datredd23 July 5, 2016

        Yes sometimes the endless Rih shade will cause a Stan to become biased every once in awhile

    • king July 5, 2016

      That because ppl these days don’t know what a flop is. $21 million off of 18 shows isn’t what I consider a flop.

      • Jamon July 5, 2016

        A successful tour is a successful tour. Why the need to always compare? If that’s the case than is anyone anyone not putting up Madonna’s numbers a flop? One does not have to best another artist to win. Beyonce, Rihanna, Katy, Taylor etc are all doing their thing and making millions. All were doing is sitting on our phones, reading their post and commenting. Some of y’all are using the word FLOP way to loosely. Grow up already

  17. Music all the way July 5, 2016

    I guess she really isn’t much without streams and Samsung this era. Congrats girl,if only your stupid fans didn’t like to make you more than what you really!

    #TheblackMadonna

  18. BEYSTAN_ SINCE 1997 July 5, 2016

    My fav could never ????

    • Datredd23 July 5, 2016

      Your fav was doing tour numbers close to what Rihs are at her age stop please! DWT had the highest gross for a black female artist under the age of the 30 so give the hate a rest on Rih she is still winning moron

      • Keri Qween July 5, 2016

        Clock the faag @datredd

      • BEYSTAN_ SINCE 1997 July 5, 2016

        Don’t get sassy with me because Rihanna box office revenue is low! I would be mad to if lessors like Justin Bieber, Maroon 5, and 90’s has been Ricky Martin we outgrossing my fav on tour lol!

    • wrosy3 July 5, 2016

      Your fav ain’t all that though Madonna got her beat for number one female touring where his her number one song all her songs chart off the album fell off so fast into the sewage water

  19. Stephy July 5, 2016

    I’d expect a lot more from an artist that has 14 #1’s, 250 million records sold, the biggest digital artist in the world, the black Madonna, the best selling female in history etc… Why is she not selling out all her shows? It’s not even a stadiums only world tour. Anyways, these numbers are still hella good. And, she is slaying regardless. I just find it funny how the biggest pop star in the world right now, can’t fill arenas/stadiums 100% over another artist that haven’t scored a #1 hit since 2008/09. But, whatever……………………………………..

    • Datredd23 July 5, 2016

      She is only 28! Her touring clout will only get better with age and and longevity

      • HailLegendBeysus July 5, 2016

        But she had no problem selling out shows before. Just check the receipts. Most of US and European dates were sold out for her shows from the GGGB Era to Her Diamond’s Era. I truly believe her touring days are behind her unless she can deliver another GGGB or Loud Era.
        .
        @Stephy chile with that 250m record’s sold. ?! I lived for your comments yesterday! Gotta love the unbiased commenters on TGJ!

      • Stephy July 5, 2016

        Only if her live performances skills improves. People aren’t dumb. They love her on record but live ……

      • Stephy July 5, 2016

        @HailBeysus You know I loves you boo. U iz just too cute 🙂

      • Mya July 5, 2016

        Her touring clout dropped from her last tour. It’s not growing. Lol

      • KenyaInFormation July 5, 2016

        You cant be better at 24 when she was grossing 140M and be worse at 28 and get better with age.

    • Kev Kev July 5, 2016

      why do you care if she’s selling out tours or not? Her songs are being played on the radio and she’s being asked to feature on all the hot songs. She’s doing fine after 11 years in the game. That Reign has most of you pressed because you can’t understand her impact and importance. Oh well, keep bumping lemon water and maybe Beyonce get another hit.

  20. B_Roni July 5, 2016

    This folks is a prime example of stupidity and follow the leader. Why would you comment before researching. They said this is from 18 shows ONLY. She did approximately 36 – 40 shows in North America alone. Most dates aren’t even calculated yet. They took the info from the Anti tour Wikipedia page but failed to comment that most of the dates have not be configured or posted for North America yet. About 18 of her North American dates have N/A by them. Secondly if she selling 1.1 million per show from 36 plus shows like that grape juice promoted then……. do the math. Smh y’all will believe anything.

  21. DMWN July 5, 2016

    LOL. Wow…

  22. IStan4Rihanna. (British Navy Capt’) July 5, 2016

    1) Thus far, only 18 dates of her U.S tour has been reported thus far. Once all of the boxscores for her North American shows are released, she will have generated between $45 – 50 million.

    .

    2) The matter of fact is that this tour has been POORLY MISMANAGED. The reason why her previous “Diamond’s World Tour” was a monstrous success was because it was very well promoted and marketed – this subsequent tour has not received half the promotion/PR or advertisements. The truth is that even though Rihanna is a global, pop force, she has not yet garnered high esteem as a touring act; the majority of people whom go to see her shows are that of her widespread fans. Beyonce’ has garnered a huge amount of respect as a touring artist over the last several years (her tours were not always that successful overall: see “B’Day Experience/I Am Tour) and that is why people pay to see her in the millions now with or without new music. Rihanna has always announced her tours post – music releases – announcing beforehand just was not a good idea. The UK/Europe; South America; Oceania are three of her largest markets and she has completely abandoned them this era and it’s a little upsetting but so be it.

    .

    3) She broke numerous/multiple records and box office records with “Diamonds World Tour”; the “ANTI” world tour will not follow suit but it’ll have generated somewhere within the region of $160-180M afterward which will be her highest grossing yet.

    .

    Rihanna is 28 years old. She is an international pop force; an established pop icon but, truthfully speaking, touring is not “yet” her strongest suit.

    • Stephy July 5, 2016

      LOVE YOUR COMMENTS. You always come thru with the facts & unbiased (honest) opinions.

  23. KenyaInFormation July 5, 2016

    Where is LooseBooty? Flip this. LMAO

  24. UPGRADEBOY July 5, 2016

    Why is this keri hilson fan always here fighting other people battle?, girl what about your own fave? ???

    • BEYSTAN_ SINCE 1997 July 5, 2016

      Rihanna is her adopted step daughter since her biological daughter “Keri Hilsons” career died in 2009.

    • Truth July 5, 2016

      That’s not an actual Keri Hilson fan. No real fan of someone whose career has always been very modest (at best) is going to use that persons name while being obnoxious – knowing that it will just compel people to attack them. That’s what trolls do to create a diversion. That “Keri” clown is a lackluster Navi wolf in sheeps clothing. P*** off the hive so that rather than throwing all the ammo at Rihanna, some of it will go to Keri instead. They’re not slick.

  25. Barb-wire July 5, 2016

    Baaaaaaybe! The way I’m gagging Chile!!! This embarrassment is supposed to be the Black Madonna? When will Madge though? Hahahahaha let’s add this one to the ever long list of flops she has acquired this year. Flop album and flop tour. Justin Bieber could never.

    • SWISH July 5, 2016

      you stan a person that is pump full of fix-a-flat

  26. #JACKIE July 5, 2016

    Mark and company are noticeably absent from this post kii

    • Mark111 /.\ July 5, 2016

      Same with Ciara’s album sales. Nowhere to be found.

  27. Cinnamon Girl July 5, 2016

    I’m not a Rihanna fan but it’s funny how some folks on here are calling her a flop but Gwen Stefani is doing worse but everyone is sympathizing and making excuses for her. You guys make fun of Ciara and Rihanna but not Gwen. What’s up with that?

    • #JACKIE July 5, 2016

      Because they’re biased sis.

      • Cinnamon Girl July 5, 2016

        They’re biased and stupid

  28. Mark111 /.\ July 5, 2016

    Awesome! Shows that the tour is not a flop. Our fave can stream, sell singles, albums and tours. That other one is just a touring circus.

    • XoMoDe July 5, 2016

      ROFLMAO! Your fave CAN’T sell albums, which is why they had to w**** her big forehead to Samsung to have them buy up what otherwise wouldn’t sell…and STILL hasn’t. Hilarious! Flop album. Flop tour. Maybe it’s time for her to give another interview about that night Chris whooped her…

    • King B July 5, 2016

      Which one? That ” the other one” actually sold more albums, tickets and singles this era (w/o featured in other artist’s song) and broke streaming records. Has Anti returned to Australian Album Chart? UK iTunes album looks fantastic BTW.

  29. Blue Ivy Rod July 5, 2016

    Decent but I agree she should be doing better. It’s okay though she and Beyonce are having a great year so just allow them to have their moment.

    Also I have been slayed by Beyonce at her tour so I’m a fan again LOL

  30. What Now July 5, 2016

    People are making fun of 21 million as if they even make 1/10th of that a month…

  31. ???????Chile, take this “Itty Bitty Piggy” to the market and make sure you hold her hand while crossing the street!??????? July 5, 2016

    Congrats, Rih! She just beat Madonna’s record for highest attendance at the Tele2 Arena with 40,000 while Madonna had 39,000. I really need her to add a few more stadiums to ensure that she actually crosses the $200 million mark this time and not just get close to it. I wonder why she doesn’t add the two European Stadium dates she cancelled back to the itinerary.

  32. ian July 5, 2016

    Stop comparing Rihanna to Beyonce. Rihanna is the best selling artist in UK and the 2nd best selling female artist in US.So please stop! Start comparing your fave to Rihanna when she make it atleast to the top 10 for both countries.

    • Reply At Your Own Risk. Leave the DumbFuckery At Door ~tyler July 5, 2016

      Stop comparing Rihanna to Beyonce until she can actually sell an album without Samsung’s help.

  33. Selenator *Kills Them With Kindness* July 5, 2016

    Lol so because it isn’t doing as well as Beyonce’s tour its a flop? With that logic everyone is a flop lmao. Beyonce is coming for the record books. RiRi is doing just fine.

    • Reply At Your Own Risk. Leave the DumbFuckery At Door ~tyler July 5, 2016

      Probably because it’s not as remotely as successful as her last tour.

  34. Ayyseify July 5, 2016

    Lol these HIVe members know what’s going on with Rihanna and how much she’s making more than her and her own stans. I hope y’all getting paid. Theifyoncè Stolesz best worry about these pending lawsuits and her copying her freedom performances from the lessors lol they might get a cut of this tour money

  35. Avi July 5, 2016

    Wack b(i)tch couldn’t get Samsung to buy her concert tickets. ?

  36. ow Reddish tran ivy blokz Need UK timely Ukuyi July 5, 2016

    Good for Riri

  37. FC/JC July 6, 2016

    Im shocked tbh, i expected a lot more is all…

  38. dave July 8, 2016

    More iconic songs? She reigns the billboard at age 28. 😀 Beyoncé had one hit in las five years, so please…. she is good at tours because she has half number of rihanna shows and everyone wants to listen to her retro hits :DD rihanna is innovative.
