Rihanna’s Painfully ‘Loud’ Jingle Bell Ball Concert

Written by Trent | Filed under Rihanna

Rihanna hit the stage at the Capital FM Jingle Bell Ball in London’s 02 Arena yesterday and it sounded as though she missed her regularly scheduled Skype vocal training session before the show. In fact, during performances of ‘S&M’, ‘We Found Love’ and ‘What’s My Name?’, the now blonde vixen simply screamed at intervals over a jarringly loud backtrack.

Rihanna first adopted her new blonde wig while filming the video for her latest single, ‘You Da One’. Ironically, the hairstyle was adopted shortly after she averred that she would not be supporting such gimmicky trends for attention.

Watch Rihanna’s set that the Jingle Bell Ball below:

‘S&M’

‘What’s My Name?’

‘Only Girl (In The World)’

‘We Found Love’

‘Umbrella’

Where exactly was the singing in this entire setlist? Rihanna only grunted, yelled at the crowd, jumped around, twirled and literally posed for the cameras. Things just keep going from bad to worse with Rihanna no matter how hard we pray for a miracle.

  Really and truly, someone needs to explain to me why on earth they pay to go listen to this second-class trash!! I mean…she can’t even dance! AND she has the audacity to call herself the “new Beyonce”!!!!
  First of all, BEYONCE’S STILL GOING STRONG AS EVER!

  I’m not a fan of rihanna but I like her. She need a lot of work but i don’t think she was that bad. And I like the grunts lol.
- mobwife
  
  @Trent, you better preach! I am not a fan of Ms. Fenty but even I expected more than this! Her fans will be quick however, to point out her ill-gotten and very shady #1 singles but cannot see that she lacks musical growth and true ability! For this chick to be on her 6th CD in as many years I see no growth in her vocally or perfromance wise! SMDH
- *V3R*
  
  Her songs are catchy and all, but she cannot perform Live at all. If she’s just gonna grunt, might as well just lip-sync the whole thing! Lolz
- NI
  
  Just Sad. I feel sorry for this generation of music. People accept anything and call themselves an entertainer.
- jay
  
  This is so bad I am actually embarrassed for her
- gdboyratedloud
  
  bitch robyn is TIRED when will yo fav sell out over 100 arenas?

  “Rihanna only grunted, yelled at the crowd, jumped around, twirled and literally posed for the cameras. ” Thats all Beyondfake does too
- DOMOdotSCORE
  
  It’s clear that Rihanna is tired from being on tour non stop for so long. But they manufacture seats for those that are tired and she obviously needs one. We can laugh at her but this is something serious. it’s evident that she’s breaking down. Her performances will never get better if she has no time to work on them or even relax. The people around her don’t care about her because they’re pushing her to work when she really shouldn’t. She must not have any friends because a real friend wouldn’t let her go out on stage, knowing that she isn’t feeling it.
- umm
  
  Why yall keep saying “oh its ok, she just tired”? This is exactly how she’s been performing for the past 5 or 6 years of her career. She will ALWAYS be a terrible performer, it’s not a matter of being tired or not
- ME
  
  WOW I LOVE RIHANNA. But I have never seen her like this. She needs rest!
- jasmine
  
  @Thomas: honey even on a bad day, Bey will still out perform Rihanna….the fact that her backtrack was louder than her is just beyond me. but that damn dumbledore gif lol i can’t

  This was pure garbage. I really want to know if the UK/London even know just what real talent is becuase this was a HOT FUCKIN MESS.
- Cindy
  
  Err im frm London and I kno exactly what talent is! That was quite shambolic but i really think at this stage in her career her name is bigger than her actual talent which is why she gets away with performances like that. Shes a superstar with a great look and catchy songs and to today’s generation thats all that matters. It’s a damn shame!
- YAWN
  
  WHY CAN’T SHE JUST LIP SING? WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT?
- T.Davis
  
  @cindy COSIGN! I always wanna root for Rihanna but then she gets on stage and she just horrible. Im sick of ppl making excuses for her. Granted this is the worst Ive seen her, but if you put rihanna’s name in youtube most of her performances arent the best. If you stan for her fine but dont come on blogs tryna cuss ppl out for giving their opinion which is different from yours. If you want a blig thats gonna stay she is the best thing sing Bob Marley (side eye) then go over to Rihannadaily, where she cant do no wrong. However, these performances right here, RIGHT HERE, nah! She betta get it together before the Grammy’s
- Cliff
  
  she needs a break, shes gonna burnout !
- OnlyMiklo
  
  These performances become so anticlimactic because the girl can sing but doesnt even try. She sound like she need a nap… be glad when the tour is over so she can just do TTT promo and videos… then tour again in 2013
