Amazing how these big female stars get away with doing these slutty softporn-lite 0898 type videos. Does it reveal a secret ambition of theirs maybe?

I quite like it but it has zero substance. Catchy bit of dance fluff. And Gaga has totally kicked her off her perch. She's suddenly barely relevant. Seems increasingly image obsessed too.

She's my fave singer, but this is a disaster.

I dislike Rihanna with a fuming passion but this song is her best by FAR and my favourite (well, it's the only one I like).

However, I might get killed for this, but she has to find her own style because copying Lady Gaga's clothing style isn't great. I mean, what is it with this trend of wearing weird/awkward clothes ? It belongs to Lady Gaga, not Rihanna. It doesn't seem right on Rihanna.

The video reminds me too much of Sam Sparro's '21st Century Life'.. I don't likey.

This is amazing. The video is a tad unoriginal (more like MIA than Sam Sparro, LOL) but it's a good effort and a visually pleasing video. I love the song too but it's not my favourite off the album.

Eh, I think Rihanna's better at having an edge. Lady Gaga clearly started doing it for the attention, whilst with Rihanna I think it's something that's grown with her as an artist. She doesn't look as weird doing it as Gaga does. Rihanna is much more of a style icon.

And yeah, Gaga didn't really create this weird fashion. A lot of designers were creating it years before music brought it into the mainstream.

But she still started wearing weird outfits after Lady Gaga who has basically dressed like that since well...since we knew her. Lady Gaga is more of a fashion icon than Rihanna. To me it's pure copying as Rihanna may have thought wearing weird clothing is popular. It is. But not on her.

I didn't say Lady Gaga created the weird fashion, I'm saying she was probably one of the first to use it. I mean, where did you ever see someone wearing a crab suit ? A bubbly suit ? A Kermit the Frog dress ?

Exactly, which is she's often credited as wearing weird fashion. Rihanna manages to look a lot more sassy and classy in what she wears - she made about 5 end of year best dressed lists last year.

You only have to look at this to know Rihanna is better at having the edge because she doesn't go some extreme:

And back in summer 2008, Gaga was much more on the down-low. That's why I liked her. She was different in her bubbled dresses and wigs...then she started wearing gimp masks, frog outfits and well, hardly anything and she changed.

I don't think Lady Gaga does wear these outfits to be somehow classy. She does it to be shocking and controversial, which is working. I'm not an expert in fashion, don't get me wrong, but to me, Lady Gaga is in another league who's started a new fashion trend.

I wouldn't say that Rihanna's copying Lady GaGa, because like Mark said, Rihanna has an edge, and she's just changing her style with every new album, GaGa has nothing to do with that.

I love the video, not too keen on her appearing a bit slutty though.. and not overly hyped about the song, she has better songs on Rated R.

her figure is fine, she's not stick thin like a skeleton, and you'll find most men and nearly all women will agree she's fine.

I don't like this song, I loved Russian Roulette but there are better songs on the album. It'll do well though.

Cheap ass video, clearly she blew the budget on Hard and Russian Roulette but it kind of works. It's very 90s, I commend her for trying new things.

As for the GaGa comparisons, I think GaGa's fashion is more mapped out, meticulous, GaGa takes her appearance extremely importantly, where as Rihanna is just about looking nice. GaGa's outfits are worn to make statements.
