under my covers scared after watching this aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh

Now thats what i call a effin video. Real art…not a crap load of weird shit fused into one and called a video. Who said gaga toke riri place? Bi*ch please…Nov 23rd 400,000+ album sold first week.

The video is very dark & intense. It was like watching a mini movie. Great job on the vid.

the guy is toooooooooo fine omg

LUV THIS FUKN VIDEO………..GET IT RIH RIH!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love it way more than I expected! The effects everything. It really goes with the song

IS IT ME OR THE BLACK GIRLS ARE BECOMMING WHITER THAN THE WHITE GIRLS?

Dark…

Love the song.

Love Rihanna.

Don’t know if it’s another #1 though…

first watch i was like wtf! and i kept watching it saying wtf! i love it. its like a movie.

yo, this bitch ACTUALLLY DID THAT???

i love this song now — im surprised by the vid; its hot.

love the video! still not keen on the song though.

i just downloaded rihanna’s new album and sadly, i was not impressed in the slightest. the only songs worth listening to are “hard,” “photographs,” and “G4L.” everything else is sooo contrived.

who is the guy in the vid? sexy.

loving it and the dude is mad KAUTE!!!

Love the video and the song! I know her c.d. is going to be hot, can’t wait to get it. The guy from Grey’s Anatomy is too fine!!! The video is even hotter with him in it.

I love Rih but i have to admit this video disturbs me…

The video SUCKZZZZ!!!!!! Lmfao
Rihanna’s career is officialy OVA!

As soon as Lady Gaga stepped on the scene, that was pretty much the end for Rihanna.

The Video is Morbid and the song is even more dark and creepier. Rihanna has epically failed with her whole ‘Rated R’ album effort. Lets face it she cannot compete with the likes of Gaga. She could not manage to get SIX MILLION views on her video in within the three days it debuted like Gaga- that shiiiiiiisssh is classical right there!

The thing with Rihanna is she dont have flexibility. She is a pretty much lucklustre artist. She was never talented, she was just the chick of the moment back in 2004/5 and now her moment is up. She doesn’t have the talent to have longevity. She reminds me of ashanti, when she first came out everyone loved her, then has her career furthered people began to realise how whack and lame she was as an artist… the same goes for Rihanna.

Anthony Medler can try to make her video look as edgy as he wants, her team can even believe that they can rival Lady Gaga with her styling ‘Edge’ factor etc etc. But you cannot teach a dog old tricks and yes indeed Rihanna is a OLD DOG!

She has no star appeal and she is a puppet! Least with Lady Gaga you can see that she has a passion for music and Performing, she puts in the work and the creativity and she gets the results. People cannot deny how genius Gaga is with her craft.

MJ died and left apart of his spirit with Lady gaga… Believe me she is the woman of our generation… shes gonna be a big ICON… all these other medicore artists know there time is up!

I am not a rihanna hater, but why is she being a poser, yall know she is not as dark, goth, mysterious or edgy as she makes herself out to be, if she was still left on her island, i can gaurantee she’ll be the same way as her pon de replay days.

besides that she is very pretty in the video, she just needs to be HERSELF and not make herself seem like she is really this way.

FLAWLESSSSSSSSSSSS

The video is VERY well made. Besides “Cold Case Love” this is my favorite song so far from this project (though as I type I’m listening to G4L…and it’s cool…still kinda dark though) But I just want some positivity now. Please? Pretty please? We need something to smile about…not debate over with controversy.

I’ve watched this video one too many times, and all I keep thinking is what did that boy do to this chick? Like hot damn Christopher?

@ Meme. Majority of those 400,000 that you’re claiming she is gonna sales comes from the hype off of the Chris Brown thing. The video is promoting suicide, bs. She does have kids that look up to her. You people are not critical thinkers, y’all just take everything for face value. “Oh it’s hot, it looks artistic”

its always the b-stans that bring other artists up.

there’s nothing wrong with gaga or ashanti or even beyonce. leave your gimmick somewhere else. all the ladies can represent and I have nothing against their hustle. you should stop drinking the haterade.

CAN I HAVE 4 MINS 12 SECS OF MY LIFE BACK HOW LAME, DIS IS SOOO DARK AND CREEPY AND SHE DIES IN DA END WHOMP WHOMP WHOMP

SUICIDE RATE GONE SKY ROCKET

ONLY GOOD FING BOUT DA VIDEO IS THE CUTE GUY

LADY GAGA AND BEYONCE WORLD YUUP

I normally don’t like her songs, but I did like the video. It was a WHOLE HELLUVA lot better that “wait is ova”. I still don’t care for the song, but I can see all the metaphors in this video. It is well put together and DARE I SAY IT - creative. I won’t watch it again , but I mean, I don’t feel like a wasted a few minutes of life.

Yeah it is dark though, but thats the song.

Sidenote: how the hell they gonna get this played on MTV and BET etc.?

@34…although I won’t say that she’s promoting suicide…I REALLY think she’s pimping that situation for all it’s worth. I would have loved for her to stand as a strong woman (not saying she isn’t) in her music and show some young women that you can positively move on and be HAPPY…not crying and crawling (haha sorry Chris that just came out) around. It’s emotional sure….great video…of course. Just wish she made me like “you’ve bounced back happy and living life”

video reminds me of t.A.t.U’s white robe with the russian theme and waiting to die at the end.. but their vid is more dramatic.. i liked it.. it was like a movie like justin timberlake did with what goes around

um, it was ok. not bad.

Disturbing….but good job by the director…its like a mini movie

love this, now I see where all the money went, this is a very well put together production. Good one ri ri!! Not dark at all to me. Nothing I ain’t never seen on tv, hell even the bride of chucky is scarier!

Rihanna is one delusional Bissh!

I just listened to her other song G4L and all I can say is this girl has gone nutz!
She really thinks shes a gangster? Purleeze!
I think she needs to see a shrink, because singing about guns IS NOT COOL! Especially when your female… she done lost all of her self respect.
You can tell by her eyes, that something aint right with this chick, shes pure evil and just looking at her gives me the creeps! She take after her father, he look like a schizophrenic and by the recent songs that have been leaking from rihanna lately, it looks like she could have some kinda mental illness.

I went on the Rihannanow website and saw a disturbing video of her pushing her own assistant on the floor and calling her a b*tch. It just makes you wonder who is the aggresive one her or chris… Hmmm I say Rihanna is the mad aggresive one.

I also noticed when I watched the video that the sxxxual chemistry between her and her assistant Melissa seemed very suspicious. I just wish she would come out and admit that she is gay/lesbian. CB was a cover up, its sooo obvious this girl has no feeling for men, she is butch as hell!

well i say damn.
i like…

@ 43 dont be an ass. She did not push her assistant on the floor, they was joking around and it shows how much of a real person rihanna is…u wad never see Ms. Perfect put together beyonce be as real as that.

Obviously ur an undercover fan watching everything rihanna do. You know you on top when the haters looking out more than the stans

Love love LOVE the video! I was able to see the video before it was pulled and all i can say is WOW!!!! I was sitting on the edge of my seat like I was watching some block bluster movie and the most pivatol part was about to happen. You know it’s coming but you can’t turn away because you are afraid you are going to miss something. She did good with this video and I am sure it will get people to talking.

I literally screamed out loud when the male lead in the video spun the chamber on the gun thus beginning the actual game of Russian Roulette. The fear and uncertianty was shown and it made the scene all the more haunting. I think my favorite scenes of the video is when she is in the gas chamber and damn near daring them to release the gases on her. The car scene and water scenes spoke volumes as well.

The entire video was a metaphor and showed the various test she was put through and yet she survived them all. I think I screamed again at the end of the video when the shot rang out and Rihanna was the one who won the game. No matter what she was faced with she emerged as the victor and I loved it!

Can’t wait for Rihanna and her era of Rated R. I think with the video and songs on the cd we will see growth and a different kind of Rihanna and that is a good thing. The true mark of a good artist is being able to grow and show that growth in your music, videos, and most importantly self.

@beysus christ you sound so obsessed. Is it that serious. First you had one essay then another, and all based on someone you don’t even like. You even went searching for her songs so you can hear them, and you hate her. I’d hate to see what you would have done if you liked her. Rihanna got you so worked up over her. This is tooo funny. Why do you want to see her fail so much? its okay that she and bey be successful, it is not that serious. There’s enough room in the game.

Rihanna is really milking the whole … “victim” thing.. what happened to her was horrible and CB is an asshole for making that kind of mistake, but shes riding the drama train all the way to the bank…lol I dont think people wanna see this side of her.. .what happened to Lil Miss Sunshine? If Jay was still over at DefJam this would not have happened at all… damn girl….

Wowwwww…..well it was kinda disturbing to me. Anyway those gray shoes she was wearing in the padded room scene were hot. That’s all I got.

ohhhhh okay. if you REALLY saw that behind the scene thing you would that she was joking.

weird
dull
BORING

P.S. i watched it on mute cuz i cant stand to hear that atrocious voice of hers

i love……….

Its a little dark but I love it. I hope her CD goes hard.

THIS IS HER VID FOR HER LEAD SINGLE?!?
REALLY?
lol now i know for sure it will flop

I don’t feel like deciphering through this video, What does she what us to feel for her, sympathy? Is Chris suicidal? She has some anger she needs to work out…God bless her.

Director did a great job though.

mari

r u really one to call someone else obsessed?

Am I the only person that hates this song??????????????????????????

melia

NOPE count me in

Please Rihanna’s career is not over, its black people who are more so negative about it. The album is really good and its theatrical. Russian Roulette is Rihanna’s 12th single in the top 10 this decade so she is going nowhere, Hard is already on billboard. Some of you are fans of another chick and taking the time out of your day to check out Rihanna’s video, Thank You

F*CKING LOVE IT! Great video and i love the different approach she took on it and i MUST say CB video is pretty nice too and i don’t even like him!! lol but you know at this point u can see that these 2 are TOTALLY talented and like Chris said it’s time 2 get back to the music and i give them a round of applause because they both produced 2 great videos…idk if im gonna buy any of there albums yet so until them HELLO DOWNLOADING! but i wish them both nothing but success

I’m not obsessed, Im just fed up of this over hyped trash!
I mentioned that backstage video, because people can analyse how messed up rihanna is. She dont seem to be with it.

Shes an aggressive woman and her true colours are beginning to shine through! She is also homosxxxual and she hiding behind this whole CB drama, but the truth is she been sleeping with her best friend Melissa throughout all of this mess, while CB Been hurting. She aint suffering, she just trying to profit from all of this, but believe me its all gonna backfire on her!

She is laughing at the real women that suffer domestic violence. When you suffer abuse from the hands of your partner you do not act the way that rihanna is acting. She does not know what an abusive partner is… Believe me! Its clear to see that rihanna is a little girl, the industry has tried to force her to become a woman in the space of what??? four years? But the little girl in her is very apparant… if she was grown she would realise what a mess she is doing with this whole album and the way she marketing herself is just wrong!… she is simpleminded, she cannot distinguish wrong from right, the girl is a fool!

It was creative. You can’t help but watch it, but I’m not exactly getting the song. I don’t know exactly the direction shes going with the song. Just kinda leaves you thinking lol. I dunno. it’s one of those songs that if I hear it I will listen but I don’t think it’s something Imma be bumpin to lol.

OOOOHHHH WEEEEE!!!
Video….Nice!
Video boy…EVEN nicer OMG!
I need to find me a significant other ASAP cuz im gettin lonely
LOL
Homeboy is FINE!!

LAME

preach BEYSUS CHRIST preach

Beysus you cant even be taken seriously with that name, isnt there a fansite for you to visit. You seem like a little girl juding by your rant, I bet your not even helping to save others lives but your commenting on a stranger … what are you doing in your life? GTFOH

Rihanna sucks, what msg is this sending to her young fans? This is too violent and it won’t be topping the charts in this century. That album = huge flop. If people were more forgiving Chris Brown’s album would do so much better than hers and everyone knows that his album is the better of the two.

CAN I JUST SAY THAT THE THREE SONGS THAT HAVE BEEN OUTED FOR RATED R, HAVE NOT BEEN THAT GOOD!

BUT SHE HAS GOT BETTER SONGS ON THE ALBUM. YOU JUST NEED TO GO ON YOUTUBE AND CHECK THEM OUT.

ONE SONG TO WATCH OUT FROM HER IS- RUDE BOY

THATS A CLUB BANGER RIGHT THERE!!!!!!!

THEN WE HAVE G4L WHICH IS DARK….YES.. BUT THE PRODUCTION AND THE VOCALS OF RIHANNA IS CRAZY..

I THINK RIHANNA’S ALBUM WILL SLOWLY UNFOLD SHES SAVING THE GOOD STUFF TILL LAST, BECAUSE THIS ALBUM IS GONNA BE AROUND FOR A LONG TIME!!!!!

DONT WRITE RIHANNA OFF, IF YA DO YOU A FOOL… SHE JUS BIDING HER TIME THATS ALL!

@ #67 are you a rep for Rihanna? You sure sound like one!

the song has grew on me but i know i wont be watching the video again

The video’s really creative but I don’t get what it’s trying to say

@39 omg!! i sooo remember t.a.t.U. when the whole being a lesbian thing was supposed to b cool…i remmeber when they perforned at the MTV awards and they had all these girls on stage making out!!! omg!!! what happened to them?

but to the video, i saw it earlier today, and its a good video…shes singing from pain..understandable..i still kinda miss the “please dont stop the music” rihanna!

Luv it, rihanna always deliever, true art.

What kind of message is she sending to the younger fans? ummmm their parents are responsible for Rihanna, why would you let your kid purchase an album called Rated R? Rihanna is a grown woman, she is not here to babysit bad little kids who cant decipher reality from fiction. How about you write in the video game companies who sale violent games to our kids (Call of Duty grossed $310 million in one day)? How about your write to Movie Houses who creates dark movies for kids and labels it PG13? How about you write to Obama regarding our youth being in war right now? I bet you appove of a certain female popping her privates in front of kids? Dont be a hypocrite today, its friday.

#48 let’s see you get your face punched in till it’s unrecognizable and see how well you’ll keep carrying on in life as if it didn’t happen, nor vent about it….

hmmmm the incompassion in some people is quite disturbing, just saying….

*correction* Parents are responsible not Rihanna.

@record top why? because I’am not hating. So I guess if I was hating on her, I wouldn’t have gotten a comment from you. Anyways since I wasn’t directing my comment to you, get off my arse.

@Peace

These are people who Hate Rihanna, not haters in a fun blog way but actually hates her. I read one post where someone stated she should have died, I mean is it that serious? It baffles me because the time is being taken out to view Rihanna’s work instead of ignoring her….
