Rihanna might be drawing lots of controversy and criticism as of late for her raunchy Instagram behavior that her fans adore and complaints about her current Diamonds World Tour, but she’s still achieving plenty of success in her music career these days. And when it comes to breaking records on the music charts, it couldn’t be truer that Rihanna’s reign won’t let up. According to multiple reports, the singer has made history yet again with another major accomplishment.

The “Pour It Up” singer has officially nabbed her seventh number one hit on the UK charts thanks to the new Eminem single she’s featured on, “The Monster.”

This makes her the third artist to ever to amass seven number one singles on the UK charts, an accomplishment previously held by the Beetles and Elvis Presley.

She also makes history with this accomplishment because she is now the first female artist to ever hold the record.

And if that’s not enough for RiRi, she also pulled in the most revenue tour wise at $68 million this year and she was just officially announced the new spokesperson for MAC Cosmetics’ Viva Glam line.

Congrats to Rihanna.

  1. Nice to see a black women doing this well in music. Now I’m just ready for a new album from Beyonce. She’s been teasing long enough. LOL.

    1. Beyonce was winning before Rihanna even got a deal and was on an island dreaming to be in Bey’s shoes. Keep her name out your mouth please and respect your roots. Rih’s success doesn’t take away from Bey’s in any shape or form. Thanks.

      1. Thank you! No one has to like Rihanna because she breaks a couple of records and she’ll never outshine Bey so I don’t know why the navy goes so hard…plus when she gets paid Bey gets paid….sooo…..

  2. $68 million is from the European leg of the tour if you add the US leg its about $100 million with the Asia, middle east, and the North American dates to be added

    1. TranShady is starting mess now on IG talking about showing your body to your lover. Last time I look in the bible it said no fornicators would see God. So when Riri hit back Riri is bulling this woman is a sneek and a snake. Keep watching her drama. Mad because Rir is doing good and still on top.
