MY REVIEW ----

 

 

A-f***ING-MAZING :w00t: As if I couldn't love her anymore. :heart:

 

We were RIGHT at the front standing, like touching distance from Rihanna [even if I did drag my friend down there early to wait 3 hours outside :P]. First there was a support act from CIARA who was really quite good! She did a much longer setlist than I thought she would as well [Get Up, Promise, 1,2 Step, Oh!, Goodies, My Love, C.R.U.S.H., Can't Leave 'Em Alone and That's Right] and during the performance of ''C.R.U.S.H.'' she pointed right at me when she says the first line of the song ''This is how he makes me feel'' I was like :D She looked rather hot too.

 

Then we had to wait like an hour for Rihanna to come on and when she did she kicked it off with ''Pon De Replay'' with this hot black outfit and was only a couple of feet away from me. :D She then sang ''Break It Off'' and ''Let Me'' from MOTS. Then she sang ''Breakin Dishes'' which was HOT and some of the other album tracks from GGGB, the best being ''Rehab'' suprisingly where she sounded REALLY good vocally! ohmy.gif I was impressed. Oh and ''Question Existing'' when she came up on the stage in this sexy dress laying on a sofa. Same with when she did ''Unfaithful'' and it was only her on stage in a slinky black dress and made the atmosphere really moody with dim lights and fog/smoke surronding the floor and she sounded really good vocally as well. She then went onto do ''Hate That I Love You'' and everyone sang along and the crowd went wild for.

 

The best was when she did ''Don't Stop The Music'' though and in the interlude of her costume change they miced it with Madonna's ''Music'' which was really cool and as soon as you heard in the distance ''PLEASE DON'T STOP THE MUSIC'' and the first beats of the song and there was loads of flashing lights on stage as she came on stage and sang it, it was just amazing. Then she went onto do ''Shut Up & Drive'' which she had a racers jacket thingy on and her backing dancers were holding racing flags as she came on stage to start singing it.

 

And finally she sang ''Umbrella'' to which she started singing it acoustically and then the beat came in and the crowd went wild and all put up their umbrellas which was really cool and as the last chrous kicked in and she sang ''BECAAAUSE'' confetti came out which was amazing.

 

Overall one of the best concerts I've ever been too and much better than some other people made it out to be -_- :D

Wembley Arena Review

 

Arriving on stage at around 9.30, in knee length boots, tutu and bra made out of PVC, Rihanna looked illegally stunning and the 19 year-old soon had audiences mesmerized with her syrupy sweet vocals.

 

She brought the Carnival to the packed largely female Wembley Arena crowd opening up with ‘Break it Off’ whilst whining like a true Dancehall queen. Her curly crop moved energetically as she tore through hits like ‘Rehab’ ‘SOS’ and ’Breakin Dishes’ sounding much like the record despite the fact she was singing live. Even her unnecessary tampering with the Bob Marley classic ‘Is this Love’ was carried out with equal gusto by the Bajan beauty who by then was jumping around the stage with one hand and foot in the air like a reincarnated Marley.

 

A brief outfit change to even less then she had on before brought with it the slower numbers like the smaltzy ballad ‘Unfaithful’ and ‘Hate that I Love you‘. Though these songs highlight the formidable song writing talents of NeYo, having seen Rihanna perform them elsewhere, I can wholeheartedly say she gave her best renditions of both.

 

Her smouldering looks grew more and more captivating as she belted through her impressive multitude of hits from 3 albums in 2 years. ’Shut up and Drive’ was imaginably choreographed with huge steel trolleys and ‘Please Don’t Stop The Music’ began with Rihanna scratching the record with her elbow. The house track proved to be hugely popular and had everyone in the crowd up on their feet as if they were raving in a discarded warehouse.

 

Having 1,2 stepped on the scene first with Goodies back in 2004, it must be bitter pill to swallow for Ciara who was brought in as a mere prop to flatter Rihanna’s superstar - woman of the year - status owing to Umbrella. The ode to friendship that stood at the top of the UK charts for 10 weeks and led to many proclaiming her as a bad luck omen to the UK’s horrible weather conditions. As Rihanna performed it for her encore at the end of her lengthy 75 minute set, the packed stadium was awash with brollies. So too were her scantily clad female dancers though even the superstitious among you would be hard pressed to see anything unlucky about it.

 

Rihanna’s performance was dazzling and the Bajan bombshell has come on in leaps and bounds since her debut album ‘Music of the Sun’ in 2005.She had the audience at her high heeled boots and gave a performance worthy of her fame.(EE)
