Rihanna performing " We Found Love " in Buffalo, NY

After Rihanna performed at the 2012 MTV Music Awards, she announced that she was to start a world tour to support her upcoming seventh studio album Unapologetic . [1] She embarked on a promotional tour known as the 777 Tour that lasted for seven days before the release of the album. Live Nation further released a trailer for the world tour and the North American tour dates. [2] Tickets went on sale in September 2012. The European dates and tickets were released two months later in November. [3]

Beginning in early March of 2013, Rihanna began to release videos for the tour through her Youtube channel showing behind the scenes footage regarding the costumes, the stage, and dance rehearsals. [4] The final video showed preparations for the first show in Buffalo, New York.

Rihanna performing "Rockstar 101" in Toronto, ON

The tour has received generally positive reviews. Jane Stevenson from the Toronto Sun wrote that "bigger was definitely better as the 25-year-old artist, starting an hour later than scheduled, kicked off her show kneeling in a black cape in front of a female statue on a video screen before the full effect of the large-scale production kicked in...And if she was still suffering from the laryngitis that caused her to cancel two shows of the Diamonds Tour in the U.S. last week, you’d never know it from her strong vocals on such ballads as , "What Now," "Love The Way You Lie" and "Stay"...I’ve seldom seen a music artist so aware of her body and how to use it." Sam Adams from The Inquirer gave a positive review for the performance at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, writing Rihanna "gave herself equally to every new arrangement" and is "either an endlessly versatile performer or a vacant vessel, a chameleon or a cipher." [5] Brad Wheeler from the The Globe and Mail wrote "The 100-minute thrill ride included a two-tune encore, comprised of the bluesy ballad Stay – the woman can sing – and the sky-gazing, swirling, upswooping single Diamonds...Rihanna’s star is hot and still on the rise – Beyoncé’s Sasha Fierce is now Sasha Fears." [6]

Mikael Wood from the Los Angeles Times positively reviewed the show stating, "At 25, Rihanna, like many of the suspended adolescents in her fan base, isn't yet willing to decide which one of her many roles will define her. If anything, she revealed more of them Monday night at Staples Center, where her Diamonds World Tour touched down for a sold-out concert that felt like four smaller shows strung together with costume and set changes. The concert was defined throughout by the woman at the center of it." [7] Mike Bell from the Calgary Herald gave a positive review of the show stating, "It was big, bright and bombastic. But she was somehow bigger, brighter and more bombastic. And deserving all of the attention for all of the right reasons, especially that main reason. Rihanna is a pop star. A pretty great one at that." [8] John-John Williams IV from The Sun wrote that "Rihanna gave a stellar performance in Baltimore" and added that she "pulled out all the stops, performing hit after hit." [9]

Jim Farber from the New York Daily News wrote that Rihanna gave a "dense and ambitious show" at the Prudential Center and that the show "sparkled any way you looked at it." [10] Christopher Spata from The Tampa Tribune gave a positive review for her performance at the Forum, writing that she was "captivating" and "happy to be back on stage." [11] Jeff Rosenthal from Rolling Stone commented on her performance in Brooklyn writing: "It could be very easy to dislike Rihanna and all she does – so many people unfollow one another on Twitter just because they're not being followed back – but who cares, her show is good. Her show is good because her songs are good, and her songs are good because her taste is good." [12]

Commercial response [ ]

After the tour was announced, it created mass success at the box office and many venues sold out within minutes. Due to high ticket demands in North America, additional dates were added in New York City, Toronto, and Montreal as a result. [13] Also in Europe, ticket experts predicted stadium dates to sell fast in the UK. [14]

During the performance in Morocco, Rihanna performed in front 150,000 people, her biggest audience to date. [15] She made history by becoming the youngest artist to perform at the Stade de France in Paris, beating out Lady Gaga who previously held the record. [16] She also made history becoming the youngest artist to sell out the Millenium Stadium in Cardiff. [17]

Out of the 96 shows, all were sold-out except three.

Concert synopsis [ ]

DWTpic

Rihanna performing at the Bell Centre, in Montréal, Québec (Canada) during the tour.

The show was divided into six sections. It began with a minimal version of " Mother Mary " with Rihanna in a black cloak kneeling in the front of the stage in a prayer-like pose. She then disappears from the stage and returns to perform a energized performance of " Phresh Out the Runway ." The next song performed was the remix of " Birthday Cake ", which shows Rihanna grabbing her crotch, before flowing into a solo version of " Talk That Talk ." Rihanna then performs a slightly extended version of " Pour It Up ", before moving into " Cockiness (Love It) " and then closing the first section with " Numb ." The second section then begins with a minimal version of " You Da One " which Rihanna appears in an outfit by Raf Simons. She then performs " Man Down " while the backdrops feature mug shots of herself. " No Love Allowed " and " Rude Boy " are performed next, while Rihanna leaves the stage early for a costume change during a solo version of " What's My Name ". Rihanna then dons a multi-colored bustier and hot leather pants by Adam Selman for the third section which opens with " Jump ", utilizing pyrotechnics. She then performs " Umbrella ", "All of the Lights", " Rockstar 101 ", and finished the section with more fire and crowd involvement with “ What Now ”.

The fourth section opens with " Loveeeeeee Song " featuring Rihanna in another custom look by Adam Selman. A mash-up of " Love the Way You Lie (Part II) ", " Take a Bow ", and " Cold Case Love " is performed next. The ballad section closes with " Hate That I Love You " with Rihanna descending beneath the stage for a costume change. She returns during the fifth section in a dollar-bill themed halter dress for " We Found Love ". Another mash-up of " S&M ", " Only Girl (In the World) ", and " Don't Stop the Music " is performed next. The section ends with " Where Have You Been " featuring choreography from the music video .

Rihanna began the performance clad in gold and black, sans pants — a theme that would continually reveal itself throughout the evening.

The singer, accompanied by numerous backup dancers for the majority of the two-hour set, performed pop hit after pop hit, revealing her sizable catalogue of tunes.

Rihanna's performance followed an opening set from A$AP Rocky, who was joined onstage by A$AP Ferg and Schoolboy Q.

The boisterous crowd at the April 8 show included Elton John , Julia Roberts , Big Sean , Christina Aguilera , Tyga and several members of the Kardashian clan, all cheering the singer on.

Rihanna's show was presented in six “acts,” each which showcased various facets of the perpetually-touring singer. She is currently supporting her seventh album, Unapologetic .

Rihanna might have enough personalities to warrant six acts, but in the end, it all boils down to one artist selling libido-inducing hooks.

Rihanna was accompanied by guitarist Nuno Bettencourt , best known for his work with '90s rock band Extreme.

The show's effect was monstrous, a gleaming, sexy onslaught of pop perfection, aptly showcasing just why Rihanna has been able to sell seven albums and their subsequent world tours.

Rihanna Shines Bright On Diamond's World Tour

Ms. 777 kicked off her Diamonds World Tour on March 8 at the First Niagara Center in Buffalo, New York. From slit skirts to thigh-high boots and more fiyah, it looks like Rih Rih made it a good time. The pop princess had to cancel her second stop due to laryngitis, but the show will go on. Peep the pics.

Rihanna Drips in Diamonds for a Night Out in New York City

The singer recently became the top female solo artist with the most diamond-certified hits

preview for Law Roach Reveals the Zendaya Look That Left Him in Tears | Fashion Flashback | Harper's BAZAAR

On Friday, the singer took a break from her Fenty Beauty press tour to have some fun with longtime friend Melissa Forde at celebrity hot spot Pergola. For the occasion, RiRi wore a black minidress with blue and red mesh overlays, and wrapped herself up in a fluffy zebra-print jacket. A known lover of fur outerwear—remember her heart-shaped Yves Saint Laurent coat ?—Rihanna looked like a true personal fashion killa.

Naturally, she accessorized with a diamond collar necklace and layered some diamond tennis necklaces on top for good measure. On her arm, she carried a black quilted shoulder bag from Gucci, complete with a silver horsebit, chain, and $3,890 price tag. Rihanna sparkled from head to toe with the help of small diamond earrings and a diamond anklet on her right foot, and she matched her designer bag with pointed black heels and black square-shaped sunglasses. A gold ring seemed to be the only non-diamond piece of jewelry she wore.

A head-turning glam was also a must for the Fenty Beauty founder. She wore her hair in blonde braids, which she wrapped around her head and pinned into place with multiple crystal pins and a large diamond flower clip. Her perfectly manicured brows matched her blonde locks, while a pair of fluttery false eyelashes made her green eyes pop. A brown lip liner and clear gloss finished off her look.

The singer recently made history by becoming the top female solo artist with the most diamond-certified hits—making her diamond-dripping outfit all the more fitting. After all, if there’s one person who knows how to celebrate in style, it’s Rihanna.

Live reviews

Rihanna made her entrance through one of the tunnels like a boxer coming out for the main event. Concealing her face under a heavy hood, she slowly found her way onto the platform opposite the stage. A spotlight followed her every move, making the white robe glow, while phone lights provided stars to pierce through the dark night surrounding her. A single microphone waited on a stand as thunderous applause and ear-piercing screams filled the venue, and it served to silence the crowd in an instant. “All along it was a fever, a cold sweat hot-headed believer…” Having exposed nothing more than her unmistakable voice (and fingernails and unmistakable ass) to her audience, there was no doubt as to who was hiding under that robe. The entirety of “Stay” was performed from that position, before she revealed her face. Having attended close to a thousand concerts, it’s not often I find myself in awe at being in close proximity to a musician, but seeing Rihanna standing in front of me, in the flesh, made me realize what a cult of personality she has built around herself. As she continued the performance with “Love the Way You Lie (Part II)”, she was part pop diva, part rock star, part sex symbol, all while never being anything but Rihanna. She is still so young, yet has already solidified herself among the very few people in history who everyone will know by a single name. It was very in the show, but I was already convinced she had earned that status as well. Her voice is her defining talent, but her business acumen, stage presence, attitude, and beauty are what complete the package. - See more at: http://ilistensoyoudonthaveto.com/2016/05/10/rihanna-viejas-arena-05-09-16/#sthash.AluW51yF.dpuf

Es hieß der Einlass wäre um 17 Uhr,allerdings waren wir ungefähr um 19 Uhr erst im Stadion und die Musik spielte schon. Draußen wurden dann schon alle nervös.

Erst als wir vorne an kamen, haben wir auf einem Plakat gelesen, dass The Weekend gar nicht kommen wird.Schade das man im INTERNET keine Infos darüber hatte!

Wir hatten uns brav alle angestellt, ca schon um 16 Uhr.Und wir mussten uns die ganzen Zeit angucken wie Menschenmassen an uns einfach vorbei gehen und sich vordrängten. Und keiner von der Security hat etwas dagegen unternommen.

Wir haben E-mails erhalten, dass strengere Kontrollen erfolgen werden und wir deshalb mehr Zeit einplanen sollten.Aber wo war das Personal dafür und um ehrlich zu sein war das eine sehr mickrige Kontrolle und trotzdem hat es ewig gedauert!

Als wir dann endlich drin waren wussten wir gar nicht wo hin mit uns,weil einfach nichts ausgeschildert war. Big Sean hat richtig Stimmung gemacht.Er war eine Stunde da.Danach lief nur noch eine Playlist und haben über eine Stunde auf Rihanna gewartet.Als sie dann endlich kam waren die Rücken- und Fußschmerzen vergessen vom ganzen stehen und warten.Sie hat uns eine tolle Show geboten. Ich liebe sie und die Kommentare im Internet, von wegen das sie Lustlos gewesen sei, ist einfach nicht wahr. Die Show ging leider nur 90Minuten und wir hätten uns alle über eine Zugabe gefreut, trotzdem war es ein tolles Konzert!

With all that has happened in France recently, Rihanna faced a stiff challenge getting Parisians and herself in a summery party mood at the Stadt De France.

However, she seemed to instinctively make the right choices to tap into the crowds fears, their need to reflect and their right to sing and dance without care. Rihanna opened the show hidden beneath a white hooded sweater and sang the wistful 'Stay' - a song whose lyrics took on a lot of ambivalence given the current political climate.

The songs from her Anti album were well received even though their lazy, sexy groove is more suited to a more intimate arena. Among the many hits from the album, 'Desperado' and 'Kiss it Better' stood out as they showcased Rihanna's scything vocals and Prince-like funk.

Rihanna also expertly mixed in medleys of favourites such as 'Umbrella', 'Man Down' and 'We Found Love in a Hopeless Place.' An undoubted highlight was 'Diamonds' which was introduced with a genuinely heartfelt speech by Rihanna expressing support for peace and the people of France. She then asked for the stadium to send out its light to France by way of illuminated mobile phones and the result was a spectacular touching moment.

By the end of the show, everyone had fallen more in love with Rihanna and headed back into the dark Parisian night with a little more light in their hearts and minds.

You've seen her music videos. You follow her on twitter. You follow her style, trends, favorites. You sing the lyrics in the shower, driving home with your friends, serenading a lover. But nothing is as real as seeing Rihanna perform live!!! The energy from the audience, the attitude and power that's thrown back off the stage...ah-maz-ing. The peeks and valleys from the soulful serenade of Stay to the sexy shock of S&M it's all new once you hear it live! One of my favorite things about going to a show is not only the excitement building up to it, buying the tickets then getting my bracelet and going in. That's just the beginning. I love more than anything, after seeing a great show and I'm back at home listening to the music, remembering where I was, who I was with, how I felt, what I saw and how much fun we were having when we were rocking out and suddenly, Rihanna isn't just some celebrity entertainer, she is a part of something bigger and the music is suddenly different, better, more meaningful. I've seen Rihanna a couple of times and every time that girl delivers. Her fans love her, she has attitude and swag that makes her real and sometimes the energy leaves you glowing for days and asking yourself, how long do I have to wait until music makes me feel this high again?

It was a great concert from the begining. DJ Mustard started the show, and it was wery good warm up, people were dancing.

Then after a little break came on the stage Big Sean. That was also powerful performance and we really enjoyed that.

After another break started Rihanna's show. She came from the back of the arena to the little stage above the soundmen. Two slow songs were awesome. Than she walked on steel and glass bridge and sing a song Woo and another one above us. See was so close to us, that was perfect. Then the reast of the show was on the main stage. She sings wery well, but the sound was overbassed, and the singing can't be heared clearly, that was mistake. Also she was'n talk much, she gave us one song after another. But the songs are so great. It was generally songs from the new album Anti, great. The show duration was 90min.

I'm so blessed that I was on the show. I was great. Thank you and hopefully see you RiRi again soon.

Rihanna's Anti World tour concert in Malmö was even better than I expected. I have to be honest, I was not a big fan of hers but of course Queen Riri changed that with her beautiful yet slaying personality and amazing voice. The overall experience was fun althought the only thing that was a littlee annoying is the fact that the concert started a little more than an hour later than what it was supposed to. But I mean.. it's Rihanna, she can do whatever. A tips from me would be to either buy the standing tickets as close to the scene as possible or buy the ones that are high up and on the opposite side of the scene. I was up and although it was long away from Riri it was magical to see all the people and the lights and literary everything. If you're hesirating weather you should go or not I would tell you to go go go, because it is such a beautiful and fun experience to have!

In one word - unforgettable.

Rihanna was in rare form. This tour has a more subdued palette than her other tours, as the stage was a blank white, and all of her outfits were in shades of cream, tan, black, and brown. However, there was a special energy in the room that night. Rihanna seemed happy, comfortable, and more in control than she has ever been. She joked with the crowd, engaged with all sides of the arena, and made sure everyone had a good time. Halfway during the concert, she announced that it was party time, and the stage lit up with these cool colored pods that pulsated in different colors. Other highlights include her flying over the audience, a foam machine on stage, and her dancers exciting the crowd in sparkly outfits.

I envy those who are going to see her, and implore those who can still buy tickets to do so!

Rihanna is probably one of the best pop artists at the moment. I've gone to three shows - first in Portugal, in her "Loud" tour; 2nd in London in a small venue for her "777" tour; and the last one in Richmond park, as part of the "Unapolagetic" tour. All of them were incredibly amazing! Her songs put so much energy in the crowd and it's impossible to not get stuck to her dance moves and stage special effects.

From the lights, sceneries, to the outfits - everything is top quality and very sophisticated and original.

You are able to listen to the top hits, and also some medleys from her older stuff. Setlists are wisely chosen, as they keep the crowd excited along the show.

I would definitely go to her next show - it's always a surprise and somewhat different from what she has done until now.

Daaaammmn. I didn't know what to expect, especially since I found myself more excited for the preshow of 'the weeknd'to the Rhianna tour and contemplated selling the tickets after he and Travis Scott pulled out. I'm glad I didn't. The show itself made me realise just how many anthems Rhianna has to her name.These sprinkled throwbacks were the most memorable for me throughout the show. The set and lighting combined to give a fab production value over all, in particular the very beginning where Rihanna emerged from behind and took a smaller stage before flying off on a clear platform across to the main stage. Overall I really really enjoyed the show. Wasn't quite one that made me jump and wave my arms around, but one that made me appreciate the talent Rihanna clearly has.

Nicola Coughlan Rounds Out the Bridgerton Tour In Custom Botticelli-Inspired Rodarte

By Alice Newbold

Nicola Coughlan wrapped the Bridgerton season three press tour last night with a toast–to her co-star Luke Newton , to her best friend from childhood and to her Derry Girls family, who all made the journey to London to see Nicola get her leading lady moment in the titillating period drama that has got the world humming along to rousing orchestral covers of Pitbull.

Voicenoting Vogue post-red carpet, Coughlan is both overwhelmed and full of adrenaline, but every inch of her radiates Hollywood star. Championing bridal “mermaid” glamour, Coughlan and her longtime stylist, Aimée Croysdill, worked with Rodarte to create a custom champagne-colored gown that had “Botticelli meets Renaissance” connotations that felt perfect for a celebration of a fabulously OTT show about high society.

Rodarte–who Coughlan had longed to wear for some time–custom made the dress, veil and gloves for Coughlan’s final hurrah on the Bridgerton season three press tour.

Aimée Croysdill masterminded the bridal-esque Rodarte look, which nods to Penelope Featherington’s fate at the end of episode drop two.

“Instead of method dressing, we’re going in the opposite direction,” shares Coughlan, who has worn no fewer than 68 looks on this year’s Bridgerton promo trail. “I quite like to get as far away from the characters I play as possible, so this one is very far from Pen [Penelope Featherington].” With soft waves–“my hair has been through a lot”–perfected by hairstylist Halley Brisker and pink and purple-tinted summertime make-up masterminded by Neil Young, Coughlan said Rodarte’s hyper-feminine, gothic-tinged vision seemed like a natural step on from the whimsical looks she wore on the first Bridgerton leg. “I loved that, but when it’s my leading lady moment, like Pen to speak, I wanted to step up to the bar and deliver some really fun looks.” (Easter eggs, included!)

Neil Young trialled a purple eye for the premiere, while Halley Brisker used Olaplex to smooth Coughlan’s mermaid waves.

Chopard supplied Nicola’s diamonds, while Gedebe created bespoke heels that were just the right height for the leading lady.

As Nicola Coughlan, a true follower of fashion who brings a level of joy to the red carpet that can often be lost among seasoned celebrities, signs off before clinking glasses at Café Laperouse, she hopes that her mission to execute these major looks “her own way,” because “Penelope is a leading lady in her own way,” has translated. It has not only done that, it has been the talk of the ton.

Coughlan rounded out the night at Café Laperouse in London with her nearest and dearest.

The Irish actor swears by Tatcha beauty products, including Rice Wash, Camellia Cleansing Cream and Dewy Skin Serum. She never leaves the house without her Kissu Lip Mask.

Trending on billboard.

The Navy flooded Rihanna’s replies with congratulatory messages, but were quick to remind her she hasn’t delivered R9 and it’s been eight years since her last full-length album, Anti .

“Congrats rih,” one fan wrote. “I know you don’t ever have to release music again but do us a solid ONE MORE TIME. just that album please.”

Jay-Z hopped on Good Girl Gone Bad ‘s “Umbrella” in 2007 and the hit worked its way up the charts to give Rih her second No. 1 entry atop the Hot 100. “Work” featuring Drake arrived in January 2016 and also soared to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

However, Unapologetic ‘s “Stay” reached No. 3 on the Hot 100 while the Mustard-produced “Needed Me” peaked at No. 7.

Outside of the four new diamond certifications and last month’s “Diamonds” also entering the exclusive club, Rihanna’s 2010 “Love the Way You Lie” featuring  Eminem  (certified on May 9, 2013) and her 2011 “We Found Love” collaboration with  Calvin Harris  (certified on April 27, 2023) round out her seven-carat diamond collection.
