If you listen she was whispering over a track, she sucked the whole night….

Rocking back and fourth and side to side like she was doing something.

Rihanna is an embarrasment to the whole music industry…

Looking like Arnold Swartnegger (what ever his name is ) in theTerminator.

fcuking sexy. rihanna owns her competition.

This is not a good style for her. Rihanna should stick to emphasizing her legs and bust, two of her best features.

This outfit emphasizes her freakishly long torso and makes her look like a man.

Michael Jackson 2.0 minus the hair

ewww…that’s soooo tacky

yummy yum yum.

Is it just me, or does she seem really full of herself?

Rihanna is a national treasure. She is the living embodiment of the Bald Eagle!

she looks damn ridiculous

Wasn’t this a duet?

i really like rihanna but her first performance was horrible and this one with t.i.( i love this song) was just as bad. she didnt even try. she was just standing there trying to be cute. she has the look but she didnt rock the performance didnt put any energy into at all.

photo 20 - “Lord, please teach me how to sing!”

rihanna is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hot! she killed her performances last night!

why does she have a tattoo on her finger that says shhh….???

She wears such ugly clothes.

She would make a very handsome guy. Gorgeous eyes…

what was she thinking when she got dressed?

Rihanna, Rogaine is your friend.

which one’s the guy?

RiRi got some bad advice from her stylist

pin.head.
too. skinny.

I guess anyone can call themselves a “singer” these days. I was bored to death watching her performances. I liked the words to the song with T.I., But not with Rihanna singing them. All she did was sway back and forth and she didn’t put any effort whatsoever in the performance.

terrible!!! the track was doing most of the singing! ugh!

she’s always touching her crotch when she performs. gross

i say YAY. i like the whole biker look on her. she looks like she’s the new lead singer for Judas Priest! :)

LOL! Y’all didn’t get the point of why she was dress that way. Go listen to the song and lyrics and understand it. She’s suppose to be a tough chick, and ride or die chick. LOL! I love T.I and this song “It’s Your Life” is my fav’. Some of you need help, and stop hating.

wont yall stop ****** hatin of the girl dammm
yall jus ***** jealous

Don’t EVER expect true performances from the likes of MTV….
(or Rhianna for that matter… she kinda sucks)

i’m not a big fan of rihanna but i love that song. it’s so badass, i’ve been listening to it for weeks now. it’s actually called “LIVE YOUR LIFE”. :o)

Good victoria @ 09/08/2008 at 3:07 pm

In that outfit, she looks like a female ” terminator”……Rihanna could have done better with her clothes………she needs more feminine things on her, with that hair cut….

She cant sing live she sounds horrible.

RIHANNA WAS SOO HOT AT THE VMAS I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT HER

GO RIHANNA

BEYONCE AND BRITNEY SUCKS

Zanessa-love4life @ 09/08/2008 at 3:34 pm

Love Her Music ♥

She couldn’t dance because she wasn’t wearing a bra underneath that leather vest. I guess she loved that freakin’ vest more than she loves performing. It’s all about the image, y’all!
Noone mentioned that she sampled “Dragostea din Tei”, a Romanian group’s (O-zone) song.

naana *braasiil* @ 09/08/2008 at 5:01 pm

dooo anyboody knoow when it’s gonna be the reprise here in braaasil?

VMAs were a complete dud. Britney Spears looked well though.

AMAZING!!! LOVE HER AND THE SONG!
it’s actually called: Live Your Life..fyi

wat a joy!

love her,love her CD,hate all u want,im still her fan

Hey Rihanna, Jordin Sparks thinks you’re a sl.ut.

she couldnt sing disturbia half as good as it sounds on a cd and didnt like the outfit was wayyy too muchhh…atleast she was better on the 2nd performance ow wait wasnt she singing along with the backing track? i dont hate rihanna but was just hoping that the media and everyone just could recognize real talent thats all!! i would never buy a ticket to see her live!!

she looked like Tina Turner in Mad Max and the thunder dome LOL
LOVE LOVE LOVE the song can’t stop singing it

In the song she said “aint got no time for no haters” and she shouldnt because she rocked it out at the VMA’s her outfit was edgy, rock n roll but it was still sexy. Anyone that didn’t like it has no fashion sense at all because she is a complete high fashionista. That girl has real swagger she is a rebel I love it.

When She Sung Disturbia I Was Putting my hands over my ears but the secound performance was great

Roosevelt @ 09/11/2008 at 2:14 am

She should date Jude Law. They have matching bald spots.

When she was [erforming Disturbia her breasts were bugging out. Now in this performance their gone.A disapearing act perhaps?
