Rihanna performed on French TV show ‘La Meilleure Chanson de l’Année’ on December 10th. During the elegant showing which was broadcast earlier tonight, she looked quite ravishing in a pink two-piece skirt and top combo. Though her ‘Diamonds’ performance was pre-recorded, at least she is showing us progression this era. We prefer that as opposed to seeing her naked ass every now and then, an ass that has become the brunt of discussion this weekend.

Rihanna gives us another solid performance of the Sia-penned smash, which you can check out below.

Niiiice.

She sings it the same, no nothing and why does she need backtracking for lthis little song?
Beyawnce

Bc how is she supposed to sing the hook when the “oh”s and “shine bright like a diamond” are sung at the same time, genius?
Say What

She sounds so good and she has gone and got herself
another hit on her hands.
Say What

Keep up the good work because it looks good on you.
Say What

Keep doing it like you know and want to and let the chips fall where they may
and with that said,,,,,,
There’s a shiny new No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, as Rihanna’s “Diamonds” rises 2-1. The song dethrones Maroon 5′s “One More Night” (1-2) after a nine-week reign.
Say What

With her 12th Hot 100 topper, Rihanna ties Madonna and the Supremes for the fourth-most leaders in the chart’s 54-year history. (The Supremes’ sum does not include Diana Ross’ six solo No. 1s.) Only the Beatles (20), Mariah Carey (18) andMichael Jackson (13; also not counting the Jackson 5′s four No. 1s) have sent more titles to the top of the Hot 100.
Say What

Having first led the Hot 100 the week of May 13, 2006, with “SOS,” Rihanna passes Carey as the female artist to reach 12 No. 1s the fastest. Rihanna’s six-year, seven-month span between her first and 12th leaders bests Carey’s seven-year, one-month, two-week stretch. Among all acts, only the Beatles (a rapid-fire, Beatlemania-fueled two years, four months and three weeks) and the Supremes (five years, four months) reached the milestone more quickly.
Say What

Here is a recap of Rihanna’s dozen dominators on the Hot 100:
2006, “SOS” (three weeks at No. 1)
2007,” Umbrella,” featuring Jay-Z (seven)
2008, “Take a Bow” (one)
2008, “Disturbia” (two)
2008, “Live Your Life” (T.I. featuring Rihanna) (six)
2010, “Rude Boy” (five)
2010, “Love the Way You Lie” (Eminem featuring Rihanna) (seven)
2010, “What’s My Name?,” featuring Drake (one)
2010, “Only Girl (In the World)” (one)
2011, “S&M,” featuring Britney Spears (one)
2011, “We Found Love,” featuring Calvin Harris (10)
2012, “Diamonds” (one to date)

“Diamonds” introduces Rihanna’s seventh studio set, “Unapologetic,” released yesterday. While she has now banked 12 Hot 100 No. 1s, she’s yet to top the Billboard 200 album chart. Stay tuned to Billboard.com for projections on whether “Unapologetic” could grant Rihanna her first Billboard 200 No. 1 next week.
Say What

There’s a reason she called the new album Unapologetic… after all, from her salacious videos and scandalous personal life to her oversexed lyrics, Rih Rih has proven time and time again that she only knows one way of doing things: Her way. Bold, brash, staggering and swaggering, there truly is no other pop star on the planet quite like her. To say nothing about her Instagram account.
Say What

Grammy Awards. She’s taken home five golden gramophones over the years including three wins for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration, which she won for both “Umbrella” and “Run This Town.”
Say What

Members of the Navy can certainly recite her back-catalog by heart, so there’s no point in listing out all of Rihanna’s albums here … though, sufficed to say, recording and releasing seven records in just seven years is amazing no matter how you look at it.
Say What

Billboard Hot 100 #1 singles. When her current single, “Diamonds” moved to the top spot of the Hot 100 last week, it gave Rihanna a dozen#1s on the chart, a mark that ties her with Madonna and the Supremes for fourth-most of all time, and puts her just one behind Michael Jackson on the list. And she’s just 24 years old.
Say What

Tattoos (approximately). Music notes, zodiac signs, Sanskrit prayers and a trail of stars … Rihanna’s got a whole lot of ink. The exact number we can’t be sure of (only Chris Brown knows for sure), but according to some fan accounts, she’s currently sporting 19 different tats … the latest, a depiction of the goddess Isis, she got in September.
Say What

8,700,000: Albums sold in the United States. All of her previous six albums have gone platinum, and given the #1 debut of Unapologetic, we’re willing to bet she’ll make it seven-for-seven.
Say What

Hot 100 Top 20 singles. Rihanna doesn’t just place ‘em at #1 … in addition to her chart-toppers, she’s also posted nearly two dozen Top 20 hits, including a pair of #2s (“S&M” and “Pon de Replay”) and a #3 (“Don’t Stop The Music”).
Say What

2,900,000,000: YouTube/VEVO video views. Yep, she’s also the most-viewed female artist on the site, surpassing Lady Gaga earlier this year
Say What

63,077,130: Facebook likes. Similar to her download game, Rihanna’s also tops when it comes to Facebook likes. She’s currently the most-liked artist on the site, holding a slim lead over Eminem.
Say What

58,000,000: Digital downloads sold. Yes, that number is accurate. In fact, according to Nielsen SoundScan, Rihanna is “the best-selling digital download artist of all time.” In 2011 alone, she sold a staggering 13.9 million downloads of her singles.
Say What

26,934,346: Twitter followers. She’s the fourth most-followed person on Twitter, behind Gaga, Bieber and Katy, and, yes, we’re proud to say we’re one of the 26 million. We like the weed pics.
Say What
