Rihanna, in the midst of her 4th critically-acclaimed album release Rated R, a smash #1 single with “Rude Boy,” and a highly anticipated upcoming international tour, has confirmed dates for her 2010 North American tour, Last Girl On Earth. The multi-platinum and Grammy award winning superstar, who recently broke a Billboard record with her current number one single “Rude Boy,” becoming the only female artist of the past decade to have six #1 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States, will be joined by rising star Ke$ha and female rapper Nicki Minaj, who will open all dates on the Live Nation produced tour. Tickets go on sale beginning April 9th at LiveNation.com.

“We’ve never done a tour to this capacity. The production is unbelievable and the costumes, we just took it to a whole new level. Visually and sonically it’s going to be a big step up from the last time. We just keep growing and this time it is a massive production that I cannot wait for,” said Rihanna in a recent interview with AOL.

With a total of over 121 million in audience nationwide – up over 25 million this week alone – “Rude Boy” continues its chart onslaught as the #1 Hot 100 Airplay song and the #1 Greatest Gainer/Airplay on the chart for the 7th week in a row.

Set to launch her sold out spring European tour on April 16th in Antwerp, Belgium, before heading overseas Rihanna will perform on FOX’s American Idol on Wednesday, April 7th.

Rihanna’s Last Girl On Earth tour will make 25 stops, at mix of top amphitheaters and arenas throughout North America this summer, beginning on July 2nd at the White River Amphitheater in Seattle through August 25th at the United Center in Chicago, with more dates to be announced soon. A dynamic performer renowned for her cutting-edge stage looks and designs, Rihanna’s Last Girl on Earth promises to be a visual spectacle on a scale unlike anything she has accomplished in her already legendary career.

Citi® cardmembers will also have access to presale tickets beginning Wednesday, April 7th at 12 noon local time through Citi’s Private Pass® Program.

Released in November 2009, Rihanna’s fourth studio album Rated R debuted atop the Billboard R&B Albums chart at #1and was the biggest first-week Soundscan tally of Rihanna’s career. The eagerly anticipated album arrived to a chorus of acclaim from critics and fans alike. Rolling Stone raved “one of the best pop records of the year.” The Chicago Sun Times called it “by far the best, most layered and most heartfelt effort of the 21-year-old artist’s career.” In its year-end recap, Entertainment Weekly named Rated R the Pop Album of the Year.

Rated R is the long-awaited follow-up to the RIAA double-platinum Good Girl Gone Bad (May 2007), which contained the non-stop string of hit singles that began with the MTV VMA and Grammy Award-winning global #1 hit “Umbrella” (featuring Jay-Z), then “Shut Up and Drive,” “Hate That I Love You” (featur­ing Ne-Yo), and “Don’t Stop the Music.” Good Girl Gone Bad spent 98 total weeks on the Soundscan chart, earned cumulative global sales of more than 36-times platinum in at least 18 territories around the world. The CD+DVD package Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded (January 2009) continued the string of hits with the #1 “Take A Bow,” the #1 “Disturbia” and Top 20 “Rehab.”

Good Girl Gone Bad was the third album release in less than two years by Barbados native Rihanna, who turned 22 on February 20th. It followed-up 2006’s RIAA platinum A Girl Like Me, which contained the back-to-back hits, “S.O.S.” and “Unfaithful”; and her RIAA gold debut from 2005, Music Of the Sun, featuring the world-wide smash, “Pon De Replay.”

  1. I’m willing to suspend my disbelief to enjoy a good show

    If there was ever a contest for talented singers, Rihanna would win for sure. I think her style is unmatched. Love her clothes and uniqueness! I saw Rihanna in a restaurant once and said hi… she said hi back and it made my day lol. Haters are just jealous green-eyed monsters who do not know her in person. She is Gods gift to the world and people are blessed to experience her gifts.

    rih has never waved a red flag and stated that she was the best out ther , but i love her energy and her sense of style. shes very talented and she has a lot of raw determination . and shes humble and people love her all around the world . and every sense day one the camers has had a fixation on her and they still do to this day . she has been through a lot of undue things that was not of her doing and she came through that period of her life as the world watched smarter, wiser and stronger than ever . her voice is stronger and she is showing strength with each new step that she takes as she embarks on this “epic world wide tour” this will be an event that people will be talking about for many years to come !!!!!!!!!

    she is proving to be a genius artist, and shes expermential and keeps tapping into different terrotories with her craft. from island girl sound to pop/rock ,,r&b/soul,,ballads/ dancehall,,gothic/to whatever people call dark. wich is still all just art and she is still just 22 years old i find that to be an absolutely incredible feature. with a dramatic flair and the creativity and depth of some of the music that she puts out like “russian roulette” ,,,”hard”,,and the world wide #1 hit “rude boy” a lot of the artist don’t get to do that much and that depth until much later on in their careers. baisily i love her artistry and the fact that she keeps challenging herself and keeps putting out great songs and music!!!!!!!!

  5. Hey there..Nice Page you have here! Just wanna leave a small info to suit your needs about how to blow the girl’s mind in the next Bbq-Party!
