In reply to Bam.

@Bam If you are going to compare Rihanna with Ciara then at least be fair. Both of them did not tour for their debut albums and that is a FACT! Rihanna's first tour was in 2006 and that was after her second album came out. It was called " Rihanna: Live in Concert Tour" and it only toured the US. Ciara's first tour was in 2006 after her second album too and was called "Ciara: Live in Concert" and she only toured the US. The "world wide" tours you are talking about usually come later in an artist's career (unless they are selling millions of albums). The promotion, touring, and marketing for both Ciara and Rihanna was pretty similar in 2006 and neither had a "world wide" tour. They did not have the financial backing to pull that off at that particular time.
