Pop sensation Rihanna releases the video for her latest single, “Rockstar 101.” The new video is directed by Melina, with a special cameo appearance from Blink 182 member, Travis Barker.
There was a little confusion about which single Rihanna would release next, considering that videos were shot for both “Rockstar 101″ and “Te Amo,” but it is also been said that Rihanna, who is currently on her Last Girl On Earth world tour, is already wrapping up the follow-up to her latest project.


@ 105, the world would be a better place without PEOPLE. moron.
what is not in yourself cannot be manifested. people have evil in them, they just happened to choose religion to fight over.
in the end its greed, hate, hurt, fighting back etc. people actually abuse religion trying to come of as though theyre fighting for a cause. i dont respect anyone for what they sa the believe. i respect them for their actions.
I like this new video minus the circkel ting
Riri looks so hot so sexy
the scene i love the most is where she is like a human gitar that was Hot i love it
her fashion game is always on point
Wow i’m imprest
Fail…how lame is it that she dressed up as Slash?
rihanna did it again she is untouchable when it come to video’s
meanwhile there is a scene that i don’t like in the video but overall i like it
I think rockstar is classic one
her best video’s todays are umbrella, sos and of course rude boy almos 60 millons views on vevo
I have liked Rihanna since day one, however over the years you can see the gradual change to a more grown up and yes darker Rihanna. Still I love her music but invisioned a lighter happier video for this song. Either way, she’s got skills and since my name isn’t God I’ll leave it at that.
Fail
THIS VIDEO WAS A FAIL RIHSLUT GIVE IT UP !!!!
DRESS AS SLASH / DEVIL HORNS ???? …. SHE IS SO DESPERATE !!!
Rihanna!!!!!!!!!!!! you makin me tired boo!
for the ones saying that Slash didnt want to be on the video : http://www.rihannadaily.c...in-rockstar-101/#comments
I dont think this is a good single choice, I think Photographs would be bigger on the US but the video is epic, for the ones saying that she always do dark videos, I only know 4 dark videos from her : Disturiba, Wait Your Turn, Russian Roulette and Rockstar 101.
@95. I TOTALLY AGREE
RHI HE CAME ALL THE WAY FROM BARBADOS PROBABLY ILLEGALLY AND THIS IS THE SHIT SHE PUT OUT. THE INDUSTRY RATHER SPEND MORE BUDGET ON THIS MANLY CHICK THEN ARTIST LIKE TONI BRAXTON AND ARTIST BEFORE HER, THAT BEEN IN THE GAME FOR A LONG TIME AND TRYING TO COME OUT WITH SOME GOOD MUSIC….
I MISS LAURYN HILL, FAITH EVANS AND SWV AT????
ROCK STAR MY ASS ITS MORE LIKE GARBAGE STAR!!!!!!
LOL at the fans on here who are mad that people didn’t like this video! That’s all you can say is that people are hating, Rihanna is fierce….. LMMAO! You can never say that Rihanna is amazingly talented! She sings horribly, she sounds like a 13 year old girl with weak and shaky vocals, she cannot dance whatsoever, and she doesn’t play an instrument. So what talent does she have? This video was very creepy and very NASTY! The look in her eyes screams rebel and sl*t! Seriously, her movements and the emotion on her face show that she’s sexed crazed and wants to be “bad.” How could any female of any age be so loose enough to be half naked in a video and open her legs up for the cameras/do sexual positions? I am embarrassed for her and as a straight female, I felt uncomfortable watching the video and that’s why I skipped throughout the video and didn’t even finish the end!
@bey & rih Stan (beyhanna)

NO THANKS NO THANKS NO THANKS. That video was scary, a little demonic (that whole circle and horn deal) NO MAAM NO THANKS. I really want her to lighten up. Though it is true to the theme of the album, it is a tad too dark. The religious fanatics will have a field day, but this time I can’t even defend her. NO THANKS NO THANKS NO THANKS There is nothing sexy is about demonic stuff. Sorry. Dark (goth) doesn’t mean demon.
Let us pray. LOL (4real)
Follow me on twitter @no_box_please i got you back.
LOL. I meant, there is nothing sexy about demons. I love the song though. Bad video treatment. It’s artsy, but “never bite the hand that feeds you” is all i have to say.
This song is so garbage I couldn’t finish the video SMH. Another fashion video that lacks talent. She’s wasting a spot for a real artist but she’s on her way out bc the fashion ain’t holding her down like it used to thanks to Gaga.
@ Blasian
That’s your opinion honey. If you say it was better that’s your opinion. I say Bey is out of her element when she tries to do edgy. I love her in her r&b/pop element. I don’t do e-fights & I’m a fan of both ladies for different reasons. So carry on with your foolishness while I watch the video again…..
@ SANDRA
THAT UGLY AZZ PIC OF YOURS IS A FAIL!

Everyone needs to stop hating; just because your at home doing nothing with your miserable azz life doesnt give you the rite to criticize someone elses work that harshly. The girl is doing her, if you dont like it thats fine but resepct her for not beng a conformist like the rest of you low-life no talent pricks!!!! btw she is beautiful and a great singer soo shut the fxck and get the fxck you fxcking lames!!!
These comments are so predictable. These haters say the same thing over and over again. She’s still here so it’s not working. Find another strategy. The song is hot. The entire CD is hot. Rihanna is hot. Her career is hot. Her look is hot.
I DIDN’T SEE A DAMN THING SCARY ABOUT THIS VIDEO. YOU PEOPLE ARE REALLY REACHING HARD WITH ALL THESE CONSPIRACY THEORIES. SHE ROCKED IT OUT AND LOOKS LIKE SHE HAD A BALL DOING IT. I LOVE THE GUITAR. RIHANNA IS OFFICIAL. NO OTHER FEMALE IN THE GAME IS SERVING IT UP LIKE RIHANNA. SHE JUST KEEPS SWITCHING IT UP EVERY TIME YOU THINK YOU KNOW. YOU HAVE NO IDEA. GET IT RIH!
She was killing it as Slash! Werk!
Just watched this one and her other video Te Amo. I love them both! You can’t deny Rated R is pure fiyah! I see the haters bobbing their heads to it lol.

SHE’S THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NOTHING BUT LOVE FOR PRINCESS RIHANNA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I absolutely love this woman! She has come a long way musically & artistically. I can see how much she has really grown as an artist. Rated R was an excellent project musically. The craziness of her personal life overshadowed the music imo so unfortunately many people didn’t get the chance to really appreciate what it had to offer. I also didn’t necessarily agree with the single choices or choice of video directors. In spite of it all Robyn has still sold almost 3 million & will continue to sell steadily as people get past the b.s. and just enjoy the music without all the conspiracy theories. Good job Robyn! You know you are always loved no matter what is posted on these blogs.
