Pretty much what I was hoping for in the vid really! Perfect for the song.

LOVE the video. Definitely one of her best, it's hilarious! :heart:

Her best video for sure! Forget 'Disturbia'! :wub:

Hilarious, yet brilliant video!

ONE OF HER BEST VIDEOS DEFINITELY :heart: :heart: :heart:

 

Fell in love with the song all over again :wub:

 

Best video from the 'LOUD' era so far ^_^

Homosexuality has been appropriately reinvented forever.

It's been flagged as inappropriate, so you have to sign up and confirm/lie that you're over 18 to watch it... Ah well, still her best vid to date :wub:

S&M has been banned by the BBC from being played before 7pm.

Oh dear, she's gonna lose a lot of airplay :(

I prefer Only Girl's video, but this is perfectly fine. With loads of details and a perfect pop vibe. It really is what I was expecting.

#15 on UK iTunes

 

:heart:

 

I really want this to be Rih's third #1 from LOUD. If she performs this at the BRITS or even just a medley, it'll be perfect! :D

Rihanna > everyone

I'm hoping for a Medley of S&M and Only Girl. Getting a bit bored of WMN now..

 

HER BEST SINGLE EVAH. f***ing love it besides Perez Hilton.

Looks like I'm the only one who's not keen then. It feels like some bonus video for the fans a la the B'Day videos.

This video is uttersh!te, and absolutely horrible. I really liked Only Girl the song, but she has gone too far now. If she makes music for 12 year olds then why doesn't she understand she can't get away with making videos like this.

Still not as keen on S&M as I was on the previous two singles, but it is growing on me

 

I doubt she will perform it at the Brits though.. Don't performers usually do a song that was popular the previous year ? e.g. Cheryl doing Fight For This Love, JLS doing Beat Again

 

 

I just saw the 'S&M' video on VIVA 5 minutes ago :lol:

 

It was completely UNCENSORED, they showed the words; sl*t, wh*re and even Rihanna humping the blow up doll :lol: the banana scene and the noise at the end.

 

Oh, and the word 'sex' was also uncensored.

Didn't include all countries (iTunes) because there are too many :P Some of them maybe outdated though and higher.

As for the official charts; majority of them were from LOUD release week, S&M should rebound and peak higher in most countries in a couple of weeks or so.

Just saw the video on THE BOX .
