Rihanna is known for making bold statements, from her often sexually charged music to her tattoos to even the hue of her hair. But her latest decision — a musical pairing with the man who three years ago left her bloodied and bruised — has left some ...

    Pretty scene. I really like that song! Wish I would’ve caught it on the tube!

  2. CATCHME

    very pretty look (y)

  3. kymlayla

    Ri-Ri should NEVA loose her sex appeal….cause that voice isn’t it……sorry

  4. chick from the endz

    meh….it was okay

  5. HALF AMAZIN

    I LOOOOOVEZ me some Ri-Ri but her lazy live performances kill me. *dead*

  6. Jess

    Horrible. Just Horrible!

  7. In$able^^

    HER PICTURES ARE ALWAYS PRETTY BUT WHERE IS THE TALENT?

    Janet= Dancer + Writer
    Mariah = Singer + Writer
    Beyonce= Dancer + Singer+ (Alleged) Co-Writer

    Rihanna= No Dancing + Mediocre Singing+ Never Writes!

  8. Cee

    whats wrong with her voice. she sounds horrible. Rihanna call beyonce and get some voice lessons

  9. Grace

    How can you guys expect her to sing when she can’t even breathe?

  10. Miss Info

    I agree with 7 & 8 where is the voice? Geeeeeeeeeeeezzzzz it’s making my ears bleed!

  11. chloe

    I don’t know why everyone is so shocked that she sounds like shit live. I’ve been telling people this for years. Gosh people I shouldn’t even have to tell ppl this open your freaken ears. All that production for a talentless trick

  12. Dude-N-Htown

    WHOAAAA…she sounded pretty bad. Thats not a song she should sing live……well honestly she shouldn’t sing any song live…

    And I so wish she’d get rid of this hair…smh

    Oh Im buying “Loud”

  13. sticky

    she sounded best when she powered up on the chorous, the verses were a little shaky but maybe she was nervous. Either which way I love rihanna and she can do no wrong in my book. Can’t wait to get loud.

  14. sticky

    @insable rihanna writes and has written on some of her albums.

  15. blah

    @ 14 umm rihanna has never written a song…she gets a group of writers and producers together and have them write her experiences..just because the songs are about her real life experiences doesnt mean she writes them and she doesnt. Just as expected her live performances are shit

    • emily

      LMAOO…her stans stay LYING damn….you know she doesnt write. the chick can barely speak english properly. and no, im not referring to her accent.

  16. ZavalliMusic

    Normally don’t comment but wtf?? Rihanna I loooove this song but you slaughtered it and not in a good way! I just dont understand how all these talentless ppl are so successful? That by far was dreadful 2 listen to, I think my ears are bleeding!

  17. la_verite

    …and let’s be real, it’s because of people like #13 (making excuses for the inexcusable, refusing regardless of the evidence to hear the obvious, only looking at the “pretty” facade) that this girl has a career, let alone a successful one.

    She is unabashedly terrible vocally–no excuses, no sugarcoating, just bad, plain and simple.

    Her handlers need to stick with the Britney treatment for her (i.e. lipsyncing) each and EVERY time.

  18. CHUCK

    i hate to be so mean…so i will say this…it was better than the SNL performance of this song….

    idk why they keep doing this….she won’t sell out concerts…

  19. CHUCK

    i hate to be so mean…so i will say this…it was better than the SNL performance of this song….

    idk why they keep doing this….she won’t sell out concerts…

  20. datbaycat

    This bitch sounds horrible!!! Sounds like Karaoke to me!!

  21. CHUCK

    and to also note…she did look a little lazy in the beginning…

    *shrugs*

  22. dee dee

    live performances don’t seem to be her thing. like the song though.

  23. UM... I GUESS

    Horrid. Smdh at the current state of music.

  24. datbaycat

    @ 7 Im not a real Beyonce fan but i do know that when she had time she did write her own shit!! Look at her first Album or destiny childs albums under the writers, It was her and maybe 1 or 2 other people… She did the writing cause she had time and not so many endorsement

  25. TRUETELLA10

    GO WILLOW!!! RIHANNA IM NOT EVEN GONNA WATCH HER PERFORMANCE TO SEE IF IT SUCKS I KNOW IT ALREADY DOES!!…LMBO…THIS TALENTLESS BROAD NEED TO SHUT UP AND STOP SINGING JUST CONTINUE MESSING WITH ATHLETES AND HIP HOP ARTISTS LIKE SHE BEEN DOING!! HAHAHA!!

  26. Karla

    One of my favorite songs!

  27. VegetariansWillRuleTheWorld

    It’s sad when a 10year old’s killing you vocally.

  28. JCUTIE

    I can’t stop laughing, OMY seriously!!! Well I’m not sure what to say behind this b/c she is still making money, lol, WOW!

  29. Selfish

    @ 9 lol! She can’t breathe in that get up and even if she could breathe her voice is not there. If beyonce can take singing lessons why can’t she?
    Sorry to be honest but she is a singer and wants to entertain me so do a good job and I’ll support you.

  30. tee

    shes trying to be a black madonna (material girl) I am not impressed

  31. ZZZZZZZzzzzzz

  41. hyabusa rider

    SHE IS SO F’ING GORGEOUS DAMN! SHE IS A WORK OF ART! I LOVE THIS SONG & SHE CAN DO NO WRONG AS FAR AS I’M CONCERNED EITHER. IF YOU WANT WILLOW OR BEYONCE THEN GO PLAY THEIR SHlT! IN THE MEANTIME RIHANNA STILL REIGNS, GET OVER IT!

  42. 2 bad

    Lmao @ people STILL hoping a little kid will end Rihanna’s career! #Fail. Rihanna has a strong fan base that will continue to hold her down so she will remain one of the top female artists in the world. You haters really need to find a new target because Rihanna can’t be stopped. Millions of supporters>>>>>>a handful of haters. Keep wishing losers.

    • emily

      #teamwillow #tembeyonce #teamTALENT LMAO
      YOU FAIL AT EVERYTHING! BECAUSE YOU WORSHIP THIS TALENTLESS BROAD
      RIHOEANNA…go back to barbados. and take your forehead with you BITCH

  43. wtf

    I love this song more and more everytime I see her perform it. This song just makes me feel good when I hear it! Go RiRi! Keep doing your thing girl!

  44. belle

    why does it matter if she writes her song or not. thats the reasons why the industry has song writers. this is what they does. they eloquently scribble down ur feelings while she sings it. she is a singer. and ho much may not agree i love her voice. it could use more power but whatvr we discussed this four years ago.

  45. no shade

    This is why I respect Rihanna. She may not be the best vocally but she keeps trying and never takes the easy way out by lip syncing. She will give it to you live which is more than some people do. If Britney Spears can make millions with her fake live performances then let Rih get her money too!

  46. hahaha

    I DON’T CARE ABOUT ANYONE ELSE’S OPINION. I LOVE THIS CHICK AND I LOVE HER VOICE. I LOVE HER STYLE AND I LOVE THE RED HAIR TOO SO KISS MY AZZ.

  47. ZANZ

    She’s darkening her hair a lil, it’s not as bright. I still don’t care for red, but this shade is much better than the day glow red she was rocking before. And her performance was upbeat, fun, and she didn’t sound bad either. I’ve heard some bad live vocal performances- matter of fact, Katy Perry’s and Miley Cyrus’ performances on this very same awards show were cringe-worthy, I felt embarrassed for them. Some people may not like the tone of Rihanna’s voice, but I don’t think this particular performance was bad.

  48. what??

    its not the voice the problem, her voice is okay, it’s the stage presence that is terrible, she doesnt have any

  49. Stupid Bloggers

    I’m not a Rihanna hater, I actually like her though she doesnt know how to sing.. And all of you are delusional.. She sounds terribe live, she always has.. She’s a nice, pretty girl I’ll give you that but live, she’s a nightmare.. I wanted to slit my wrists when I was listening to her.. However these days is 90% business and 10% talent, she makes business sense because people love her and she has a huge fan base.. Recording companies make millions off of her, and like it or not money talks..

    I love the girl but she sounds disastrous live..

  50. Insertnamehere

    lmao @ Rih’s team on this blog..LLS!!!

    #horrid

  51. ATLANTAGEORGIA

    She’d better pull away from the table or stop wearing such tight tops! That bat fat is no joke!

  52. Dude-N-Htown

    I don’t care whether she writes songs or not……the problem is she doesn’t sing them well.

    At least Britney is entertaining to watch…Rihanna is boring to watch. I use to like to see what she was gonna wear…but even her wardrobe game has been a disaster.

    But anyway, my cuz jus downloaded Loud…i don’t know how, but I can’t wait to get home and listen to it.

  53. KARIN

    That dress in the 1st pic is so tight she looks overweight with drooping excess skin.

    Maybe that was what chocked her diaphragm and vocal chords this time.

    Don’t know the excuses for the last 4 years but at this rate with proper marketing and stylists, Kat Stacks or Antoine can be her next competition.

    Skills don’t sell records just money and knowing the right people.

  54. Sweetnikki

    She is looking so messy these days.

  55. stein

    Poor girl. she is a mess inside, she was raped by jay-z maybe at 16 as he was a hndler, and sexually abused as a child:(
