Organisers of the 2013 Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix have announced that singing superstar Rihanna will headline their spectacular race day concert at the Marina Bay Street Circuit on Sunday, September 22.

The Barbados-born singer, who has sold over 41 million albums and 150 million digital tracks worldwide, will perform at Singapore’s biggest outdoor stage as part of her ‘2013 Diamonds World Tour’. Entry to the performance on the Padang stage is included with any three-day Grand Prix ticket or Sunday single-day Pit Grandstand special ticket.

Rihanna has dominated global charts with Diamonds, the fastest-rising single of her career to date and the first single to be released from Unapologetic, her seventh studio album for Island Def Jam in just seven years.

The recipient of six Grammy Awards and seven Billboard Music Awards, she currently holds the record as the top-selling digital artist of all time. Forbes named Rihanna as the world’s number-one social media star, with over 2.9 billion views on YouTube - the most ever for any female artiste - over 63 million Facebook fans, and more than 27 million Twitter followers.

As well as hosting Rihanna on race day and rock group The Killers post-qualifying on Saturday, for the first time, Singapore Grand Prix organisers will be extending the weekend festivities with a power-packed closing concert featuring another global superstar on Monday, September 23. The complete star-studded line-up for this separately-ticketed event will be unveiled shortly.

Not my favourite but not the worst

[Jordan.]

I'm bored of the Unapologetic era now. Why's she waited like 6 months between Stay and Right Now

Just put album 8 out in November tbh.

[Smithy]

She's releasing a video for PUI long after it's peaked on radio there probably wont be one for RN

[Iceman]

They make a nice couple...

[Iceman]

[Saph]

[Jake.]

Right Now

[Me. I Am Salman]

I don't like the cover, she looks too masculine :/
Anyway I agree this era has been such a mess, had so much potential
Looking forward to November for a new era

Rihanna has earned her sixth million-selling album in the US with Unapologetic.

The record, which was released in November 2012 led by hit single 'Diamonds', passed the sales milestone last week to become certified platinum.

Nielsen SoundScan data shows that Unapologetic sold another 9,000 copies in the week ending May 26, bringing its to-date total to over one million.

Her seventh studio album, the LP also became her first number one on the Billboard 200. Its platinum status means her 2005 debut Music of the Sun is her only album not to sell over a million.

Unapologetic is selling at a faster rate than her previous album Talk That Talk, which took 43 weeks to reach one million sales compared with her latest effort's 27 weeks.

Rihanna's 2007 album Good Girl Gone Bad remains her best-selling US album, having shifted 2.8 million copies. Her total album sales in the US stand at 9.8 million.

'Right Now', featuring David Guetta, is the next single to be lifted from Unapologetic.

Wow I never realised how bad she sells in America... :/

[Me. I Am Salman]

Wow
Her album sales are quite weird, apparently her third best selling album is A Girl Like Me, which is good because it's a great album but surprising considering she wasn't as big then

[Iceman]

1 million after 27 weeks isn't good at all though.....i just cant get over why she never sells strong on first weeks...

[Gstar]

BBC you better STAN! Playing "Pour it up" in Eastenders for the third time!

This month marks 5 years since the release of one of the most iconic albums of the 21st century, and one of the best albums ever made, Good Girl Gone Bad. It made Rihanna the biggest star in the world and she still remains so to this day

Can a mod please change the title to 'Rihanna Thread; 5 years since one of the most iconic albums of the 21st Century'

Last night I went to her show at Twickenham Stadium, Rihanna is so amazing live and beautiful in person. I had seen her at Wireless but this felt more special. I was so close to her too (having queued all day). She was late so she cut some songs.

[Me. I Am Salman]
