Rihanna is clearly resting comfortably on top as one of today’s biggest names in music, but the singer constantly finds herself the target of backlash these days. As we reported recently, she was asked to leave a mosque in Dubai after she had a photo shoot there that the officials felt was “indecent.” Now she’s back in the news again because she was reportedly an hour late to her Tel Aviv concert and reportedly some of her own fans feel cheated out of the performance because they feel the set was way too short.
A fan contacted RumorFix and told the website that after Rihanna reportedly showed up an hour late, she only took the stage for an hour before ending the show, much to their frustration. The site writes:
Several angry concertgoers tell RumorFix that the pop star showed up over an hour late to her concert at Hayarkon Park in Tel Aviv for her one-night-only sold out show in Israel Tuesday night.
And not only did she have the nerve to keep her 50,000 fans waiting, but the singer only performed for one whopping hour! Our source says the singer didn’t “present” as she was using full playback for all her songs (she sang over the original music), she didn’t change any outfits, and didnt present a strong performance like she normally does. “It wasn’t worth it for me, I expected more for my ticket,” says one fan who bought his tix for $100 US dollars.
But not all of Rihanna’s fans were disappointed. In fact, most of them were proud of their fave’s performance and they made that clear on social media. In fact, the concert itself even made history. Rihanna tweets:
#TelAviv THANK YOU for making tonight so big for me! We sold out, and became biggest female show in histoRIH to play in your home!! #NAVY
Congrats to Rihanna for breaking yet another record with her Diamonds World Tour.
I don’t think these people are real fans…
They can’t be. Especially if they expected Rihanna to pull a Beyonce. She’s known for fashion and people just love to see her walk around and strut her stuff. Only non fans expect anything more and get disappointed when they don’t get it.
These people try so hard to break this girl and she just keeps winning. I love it. #ThatRihannaReign
People need to stop crying about this girl’s performances. She’s never been a performer or anyone who is known to put on a show. If that’s what they want from a concert, save the money and go see someone else. But all this whining and complaining about someone who has been this way since they came out is stupid to me.
she’s not a performer …. not a singer …. what the f-ck is she
I’m not sure what they were expecting. Rihanna has never been an over the top performer. Do they not understand who they stan for?
All that hating they do and she’s still selling out stadiums and breaking records. Sit down haters.
My goodness the haters are pressed to send that to the blogs! No matter what they try to say about Rih, she is still on top. Time for people to just get over it.
You’re an idiot if you pay $100 for a Rihanna concert.
I have no sympathy for anyone who goes to her concerts. They knew what they were signing up for. Don’t try to get mad now.
LOL. How many times are they going to complain about the same thing before they get that they created this monster? They told her being a bad girl was cute and that’s what she’s doing. Being a bad girl. Shut up and keep worshipping the monster you created Navy.
She probably feels like she can do whatever she wants and still have fans. So far she’s been right.
Well she will never get better these fans need to stop complaining and stop buying tickets. Obviously she doesn’t care about her fans enough to put on a decent show so they need to hit her in her pockets maybe she will care more about her money.
I just so cannot wait, until another female artist comes about, and outshines this non talented cretin
