IT SUCKS THAT SHE ARRIVED 3 HOURS LATE AND ONLY STAYED FOR 30 MINUTES!!
I’m tired of her giving us the same poses
WOW SHE LOOKS AMAZING
THE HAIR HAS DEFINTELY GROWN ON ME
BUT I’M READY FOR A CHANGE
THIS IS LONGEST SHE’S EVER KEPT A HAIR A CERTAIN WAY
IT’S BEEN A WHOLE MONTH
COME ON RIRI…TIME FOR SWITCH UP
@3 why were u even in line for that crapy cd and u must not have gotten the memo rihanna is a diva now she doesnt show up on time for anything anymore
she naked in those pics nd look at her fans dat lil kid…who/ever child it dat DAMN SHAME
Too bad after all that hooker street walking this past summer, getting her head pounded by Chris Brown, nude photos and 20/20 interview that she won’t be debuting at no. 1 on the Billboard 200 album charts. Poor her. LOL
lol @ 6
good for rihanna..
let her do her thing
@6 smh damn rihanna. She looks cute but I’m not impressed. I hate that diva shit.
People are actually “buying” that album? LOL!! After previewing it…sad. They will be highly disappointed but goodluck to her.
@#3 GTFOH seriously! Wow, that makes it even worst smh.
#3
i bet she was in her hotel room watching tv for three hours just so she can be fashionably late
Ilove Rihanna..I’m glad she is back and she looks great! F the hater Ri,they are just jaded…
@11 – Mindful
I agree with everything you said.
I hope they take the album from the little girl and trash it. If she is sick she needs to stay positive. Rihanna CD is rated R full of harshness. I can’t beleive the little girl was even there. Damn shame the little girl is there buying Russian Roulette SMH!!!
SHE IS OVERRATED WITHOUT A DOUBT SHE CANT SING,CANT DANCE NOT EVEN A REAL PERFORMER ONLY THING SHE GOOD AT IS UH????????
when i was in best buy earlier this CD was still fully stocked on the shelves….
nobody is using it….you can only get so far with a gimmick.
and after all this foolishness guess what RIH stans
your girl has NEVER Debuted at NUMBER 1 and guess what? she wont this time either..GAGA fame monstor will prollly hold that top spot..
NEVER HAD A NUMBER 1 album..smh lol
and that performance on ama’s was llllllllllllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaammmmmmmmeeeeeeeeeee.
I wouldn’t buy that CD if a stranger came up to me and gave the money to buy her CD.I would take those few dollars and put them in my pocket. She has no talent at all. She mumbles and walks back and forward when she performs. Such a waste of time. Girl go back to that island and return when you have made some improvement.
her feet are ashy in that pic she bendin over signin the album…gross–jergens anyone?
Rihanna looks gorgeous!!! Im getting the album on Saturday!
after all this promo it looks like susan boyle will take number 1 with 500k sold, and rihanna maybe has 100k
She’s a clown!!
I wish she’d just go away already.
#8 I’m agree lol. I think def jam is desperate right now. They selling her album for 3.99 on amazon smh. After all that happened this year..her situation was set up so perfect for her to make a big follow up to the Good Girl Gone Bad era. So far I see this as an Epic Fail. Consumers want good music from artists with true talent and she is lacking. This album might not flop but just know Susan Boyle and possibly Lady Gaga are gonna serve that ass something nice. Def jam was too cocky with this project…sympathy only goes but so far. She is a very pretty girl and I wish her the best though : )
They are selling that cd for $4.99 to push it to no.1, what’s a darn shame is that Susan Boyle and Lady GaGa are still ahead of her.lol
If all of yall hate Rihanna or don’t like her why comment? She obviously got yall’s attention.
correction”: $3.99 which is even worse! lmao
We comment because this is a blog and not her fan site.
Gorgeous!!!!!!! And Fire Bomb Is My FAVORITE Track Off The Album!!!! RihRih REALLY Made Some Good Music This Time Around!!! Im Soo Proud Of Her!!!! Kudos!!! I Love Her!!!
She looks beautiful! I hope Jasmina is recovering well.
The album is fantastic, by the way! Got it at Amazon!
i can believe she would be 3 hours late, stay for 30 mintues and have a kid with sickle cell anemia there for pictures….how freekin sad..that poor child is under age for the cd to start with and she is sick…why not go to her house and visit her there than have her at her singing with a mask on….gosh, i cant wait till she flops beyond disbelieve and disappear… she sucks and so does her cd..she is too big for her shoes now.. even the lies and the paid reviews she is getting she will not do well…go back to barbados adn get some talent sl*t…
ps, she looks so washed up…
OMG…..I actually shocked but her album is actually amazing…Buy it or download it…you’ll be pleasantly surprised. Good job RiRi
The album is called rated R…WTF is she doing handing it to lil kids…she’s such an opportunist fake ass…and all this is just the process of her calling herself out on her hollow self-centredness.
oh gawd at the rhianna critics!
rhianna has matured, she looks so happy for her album to be released.. IM PROUD OF HER
Even though I may not think she very talented, can’t deny the girl looks good. Love the shoes – CLs?
Won’t be getting the album, cause I only like three or four tracks – in contrast to GGGB where I liked every track,
Peace
Rihanna will be OWNED by Susan Boyle predictions are she’ll sell around 500-700k. Gaga will come in behind her. I’ll give Rihanna 150-200k maybe.
This is funny to me! So many people bash Rihanna for this and that but have you actually listened to her album. To be a artist you have to be able to grow and change. Who wants to her the same shit over and over again??? Clearly people are getting over Beyonce and these wack ass videos she has. If she would have came out with a nice pleasant album you would bash her for that too. You have to actually listen to the lyrics of her songs. They speak to you. Every song on the album has a underline meaning behind it.
And im tried of everyone being stuck on this Russian Roulette song. Its a damn song about love. That one song doesn’t depict the rest of the songs on the album. She has grown and developed in her music and that what makes this CD so good. I am proud of her and no matter if she is no. 1 or no. 40 on the charts she should be proud of the album she has produced, and no matter what her beauty and fashion is gonna make her a power house so just get over it already!
Just monotonous
how can a 6 year be listening to rihanna’s profanity, sex-talk (come here rude boy can u get it up) and swearing?????????
trully sad
Rhianna can pose her ass off and is a promotional dream however I really hate the new direction she’s going in with this new album. It’s really dark and I don’t want to go there with her.
All the haters stop hating!!!
and it’s only selling for $3.99?! lmao people must really not wanna buy it… but i will say it’s nice that she helped that girl out.
…and like everyone said, y is she giving a lil 6 year old that kind of album?
I expect the “R” isn’t a new tatoo!!! She has a beautiful skin why she need to do this. She doesn’t need this to remember how her album call, so!!!
When you start you can’t stop…
HELLO HELL FRICKING LO WHERE WERE YOU SO CALL FANS ON YESTERDAY’S POST WHEN EVERYONE SAID RIHANNA SOUNDED LIKE CRAP NONE OF YOU ALL WERE THERE TO DEFEND HER PERFORMANCE BUT NOW YOU IDIOTS CAN COME ON AND DEFEND HOW SHE LOOKS HERE, SO STUPID YOU’LL ARE JUST LIKE RIHANNA, FREAKS!!
WTF? She really has a cut out of her naked with a censored sign in front of her, and little kids are at her signing? She should be ashamed of herself. She knows damn well that little kids listen to her music and look up to her and she’s being dirty and nasty having semi/nude single pics, dark songs with vulgar language… what a bad role mode and a bad example of a woman. Like seriously…. that little girls’ mother or father, or if she’s a foster child, guardian, allows her to listen to Rihanna’s dirty music? I don’t care what Rihanna did for that child, because obviously her good deed doesn’t reflect Rihanna’s image. It’s just like with Miley Cyrus. All singers/actors need to know that if they are going to accept the fact that they have young fans who look up to them, then they need to stop selling sex and putting out dirty songs. Damn, Rihanna didn’t even use that poor excuse that rapper’s use “If you don’t agree with my music, don’t let your kids watch/hear it.”
The CD isn’t crappy. Her stage show at the AMA’s might have been bad, but the album is quite good! And maybe Ri was giving that little girl the clean version of the album.
Ri’s music has evolved from the last album, exactly what you should expect from an artist. NY, LA Tiimes, Spin, Rolling Stone, the Guardian UK, all the critics that matter are giving nothing but props. The common theme among them all is that Rated R is the type of album that grows on you and that you can listen to straight through, which for the most part is right (give or take a few singles near the end)
Some of you are so petty. So what if she’s doing a discount promo on amazon for the first two days. It’s an aggressive tactic to market to amazon’s current customers who are more likely to buy Susan Boyle and Taylor Swift than Rihanna. Most of Ri’s target demo wouldn’t be buying her CD on amazon, anyway. They would download it off of itunes or shop it at a box retailer like Best Buy, Target, Wal-Mart, etc., where they wouldn’t have to pay for both the disc as well as for shipping and handling. Hence the discount for the actual cd and none for the downloadable singles on Amazon’s music server, all of which are being offered for the itunes price. Everyone and their mother released yesterday, Gaga, Shakira, Leona Lewis, Adam Lambert, Susan Boyle, Bey . . . doing a discount promo doesn’t mean that the disc isn’t good. Look at all the competition she has, and she’s still probably going to do respectable sales.
If Ri damn near goes gold by next week, then what? People are going to be coming out of woodwork talking about, “oh, it only sold because she was selling it for two days on amazon for $3.99 . . .” Grow up!
One question?! What the hell does Beyonce have to do with this post? On top of that, all misspelling words and so on. How sad we are having to drag Beyonce into this when she clearly has NOTHING to do w/Ri’s album release. Bey is wrapping up her damn TOUR. Geez SOME people!!! Out of these fourty something comments, there has to be ONE!!
You know they are desparate, they brought little sick Jasminia there and dont say she supported that little girl and so what. When was the last time Rihanna was involved with her? The last time she needed some promo. The little girl is sick! and they should not have exposed her to them elements.. That’s desparate… If Rihanna had the appropriate talent she would not have to use such low measures.
It’s just not the US not buying into this the UK has seen and heard (her voice) the light she SUCKS! She went in the wrong direction on this one, you stans messed them up with GGGB and that made them think she could do anything knowing she had no talent… Cause if you stans are truthful she had none on GGGB is was just the quality of the songs that made her…
She was late but she stayed for about an hour and a half , until the line was empty.
rolling stones 4/5 this album is a masterpiece..rihanna alwsys deliverd a
she thinks she can show up late to everything and then say the wait is over like it’ll be all good
QUIT YA LYING SHE DID NOT STAY FOR 30 MINUTES. SHE STAYED UNTIL THE LINE ENDED SO STFU! THE CD IS GREAT AND IT WILL DEFINITELY NOT FLOP SO YOU CAN KEEP HOLDING YOUR BREATH FOR THAT TO HAPPEN. SHE WILL SELL MILLIONS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SHE DEBUTS AT #1 OR NOT. HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE HAD AN ALBUM DEBUT @ #1 ONLY TO DROP WAY OFF THE CHARTS AFTER THE FIRST WEEK? THE PEOPLE TALKING THE MOST KNOW THE LEAST ABOUT HOW THE MUSIC BUSINESS WORKS. BTW RIHANNA LOOKS GORGEOUS!
Yesss Rihanna! I got my copy and I’m loving it. People on here were saying the CD was dark but it isn’t. That’s how I know they haven’t actually listened to the CD at all. Just making comments out of spite because they don’t like Rihanna. Smh.
i’ll pass on the album.
cute shoes, and it’s time for a new weave
FLAWLESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
STUNNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BREATH TAKING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RIHANNA IS SO COOL AND LAID BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SO GLAD I GOT TO MEET HER AND SEE HOW SHE IS FOR MYSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE IS BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!
RIHANNA JUST ROCKED GOOD MORNING AMERICA…THE HATERS ARE BOILING!
I don’t like this outfit.
The outfit and hair are off, but she looks pretty otherwise
