Maybe she shares the same hairstylist as Prince

# 3

also performing: Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus, Taylor Swift

….***** gonna fly.

# 4

I wonder what song she will sing!!!

# 6

JJ, way too much Rihanna. Mix it up a little and stop posting the same stars over and over.

# 7

Maybe she shares the same makeup artist with the late Elvis Presley? She’s getting the same wax face as 70’s Elvis.

# 8

Damn! I thought that was Prince!

# 9

Jesus Christ, what did she do to her hair????

Rihanna looks ridiculous but I heart her lip color

Will she really dance this time? I hope it’s not a repeat of her VMA performance!

She’s fugly!! She looks like a dude! She always does the SAME thing, and her voice is annoying. She always looks lazy and never has any energy. Booo! She is so boring! Her time clock is t-i-c-k-i-n-g!

WTF is with her face in photo 6? She looks drugged out.

Classic DSL!

**** this ***** .. she sucks

Rihanna’s gotta stop releasing singles from the same album. We need new material!!

She is boring the hell out of me…

Lets hope she don’t pass out!

HEY HOE, BETTER HIDE THOSE WIGS.

WE’LL BE COLLECTING BEFORE THE AMAS

she’s pretty
but
she can’t sing

i don’t like her music. it’s catchy at times but nothing special.

If Prince and Joan Crawford bumped uglies, Rihanna would be their love child.

wowwww Miley, Jonas, and Taylor…. can’t wait
ACKWARD

This girl has flawless skin. She puts the Hollywood hos to shame!

Looks like a transgendered Elvis.

X-tina must be doing her makeup!

Scary. She’s become a female Michael Jackson.

…sooo miley cyrus can sing???????

WoW it just ceases to amaze me how some people are so negative. It speaks volumes into who you are as a person. Look within who you are and you will find the problem. Rihanna and Chris Brown are such iconic entertainers it’s just sad that people don’t see that. Keep doing it Chris and Rihanna!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lol@best performance of the night. Judging by the rehearsal photos, this is going to be similar to the MTV Awards: Rihanna lip-synching and showing as much rhythm as a twig blowing in the wind.

Advance kudos to the back-up singers!

im not the hugest fan of hers, but on the real…her style is whippin the pants of her contemporaries. With her, Lady GaGa, and the like…dolls like Beyonce have been officially put on notice.
Tired Beauty is ova…Hot Sizzle is here.

YOU UGLY DOGS, WISHED YOU COULD LOOK LIKE RHIANNA…..

^AGREE, RIHANNA IS AN UGLY DOG.

Pitchajarun @ 11/21/2008 at 5:48 pm

EWWWW - God I hate Rhianna, she’s hideous. I’d like to see her snicker at Britney now… she’s not even fit to clean Britney’s shoes, When this ugly B!tch goes down, i’m gonna snicker my **** off - just wish it would be caught on TV, just like it did with this less than mediocre, constructed, made by some record company Flash in the Pan that is Rhianna did when Britney was on the VMA’s…. Rhianna’s performance might be practised & whatever, but she will still suck, she will always suck.
