Rihanna is planning her return to the stage! Her first show since the February 8th Pre-Grammy incident looks like it will be held May 28th in the UAE -- that's the United Arab Emirates folks.


Apparently the region is so happy to have her that not only are they planning to deliver on a 38 page rider with her demands, two different venues are battling for the privilege of Rihanna gracing the stage. According to Gulfnews.com Vibe Events Management Agency has agreed to bring Riri to the gulf region May 28.

"It will be the best concert the region has ever seen and we will stop at nothing," said Yassin Matbouly, managing director. "She didn't used to be famous, or is going to be famous -- she is famous, right now," he emphasised. "She is incredible and she wants to come to the Middle East for the people of the whole region, not just the UAE."


The venue is yet to be decided, due to on-going battles with promoters in both Dubai and Abu Dhabi desperate to secure the gig. Regardless of location the venue will need to meet the specifics of Rihanna's 38-page technical rider.


"We want everything to be perfect and if the specifics of the rider are anything to go by, she is planning a spectacular show," said Matbouly.

"We have been working to bring Rihanna to the region for a while now but it has never been the right time for one reason or another," said Matbouly. "This time everything worked out and the gig will more than likely be the last outdoor concert before the summer -- and one not to miss."

"We will find the perfect venue and then just like Rihanna the surprises will begin as Vibe never brings a show without a few extras."


I'm happy to hear Rihanna is heading back to the stage -- I'm sure the UAE is spending megabucks to bring her there.

Check out the rules of engagement Ciara spilled to the magazine.

Proceed with Caution: "There's no kissy-kissy, touchy-touch on the first date" It's a time of discovery she says, so give her some details -- like your middle name.

Keep It Simple: The perfect date "allows me to get to know a person's personality," No need to go crazy planning. "Even watching a movie, you can learn a lot about someone by what they laugh at."

Walk the Line: No egos allowed. "My biggest turnoff is someone who is overconfident."

Listen Up: "Pay attention to the things I say, and my feelings." You should also step up and share your own."

Be Her One and Only: "My ultimate fantasy is to be with somebody who loves me for me, and to be married to that person for the rest of my life -- without having to worry about them cheating."

Interesting. I'd never think a woman who dated both Bow Wow and 50 Cent would be turned off by overconfidence. I think she looks amazing in the pictures. Fantasy Ride lands in stores May 5th. Will you buy it?

DO WOMEN ACTUALLY THINK THAT THEY CAN OR WILL FIND A MAN TO MARRY BUT WILL NOT CHEAT ON THEM DURING THE DURATION OF THEIR MARRIAGE??? LMAO!!!
REAL TALK...ALL FUCKING MEN CHEAT EVERY NOW AND THEN WHEN MARRIED..
Man, I'm sorry to spill the beans, but come on, this is the real world not TV....The only time men don't cheat is if they are handicapped in a certain area(lol) or that they are broke as shit and need a women to fully take care of them, and even then broke ass niggas be cheating too.... Really Doe..
WOMEN, ask yourselves, can you even see yourself being faithfull to the same dick every night???? Hmmm...Maybe a few women can, but all dudes cheat...
The reason why we get married (the good dudes at least), is cause we want to eventually have kids and don't want to be bothered with baby momma drama.. I wouldn' be able to fathom the thought of another dude rasing my child..But anyway... That is the main reason...
Also, it's not in our DNA to be faithful...We run off of Testosterone, and y'all run off of Estrogen...
A man can have the finest woman in the world, but he will still cheat...For various reasons: chick may be finer, may have a phatter ass, sexier, etc.. There whole array of reasons why we cheat, and being married is one of them...
MEN CAN NOT BE FAITFULL TO THE SAME CHICK FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES..IT JUST WON'T HAPPEN...WE CAN'T CONTINUE TO FUCK YOU ALMOST EVERYDAY FOR THE REST OF OUR LIVES, REAL FUCKING TALK!!!!
If your husband has told you that he has been faithful during the whole marriage., then you are really stupid.
WOMEN HAVE THIS PRECONCEIVED NOTION ABOUT A HAPPILY EVER AFTER MARRIAGE WITH THEIR KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR.. LMAO!!!!
I swear television has done a lot to make people think a certain way...And especially if the man is the breadwinner of the family, I GURANTEE HE HAS AT LEAST CHEATED ONCE DURING MARRIAGE...
HAVE Y'ALL EVER SEEN "THE BEST MAN"...That's Real Talk... We can't get enough, and we always think that you can never get enough ass..
I'm sorry, but it's just the way it is....Some men may not go out and look for it as often then some others, or some may not go out and look for it at all, but if it's ever brought to them, and we all know how women that ain't gotta man love men that are married, we gonna take what is being offered to us on a fucking platter....

PS...II SHOULD KNOW, I'M FUCKING MARRIED, AND ME AND MY MARRIED FRIENDS TALK ABOUT THIS ALL THE TIME....NONE OF THEM HAVE EVER BEEN FAITHFUL

And to add fuel to the fire...This statment came from CiCi...Man please, she will always get played..She doesn't even have the body to keep a man interested in her enough and for a long period of time...She's a celeb and I'm not, but I would still cheat on her ass cause she don't got an ass...LMAO!!!
LOVE IS ONE THING, BUT PHYSICAL ATTRACTION IS A WHOLE NOTHER BALL GAME BABY!!!!

PS...I smell a flop on this album, I have heard 3 songs so far to be on the album and none of them have interested me.. And on that "Love, Sex, Magic" track, Janet Jackson took that route and see where it got her...

Yeah, you aint neva lied but fuck Clo!! Why you gotta go and tell everything blood?? Leave something for the brotha's.

Clo Fresh, has someone ever told you you type to damn much. I mean damn every single day every single blog. I would like to know what career your in where they would allow you to type long ass response on the company's computer. Please tell me what you do. Your statement and I quote "...ALL FUCKING MEN CHEAT EVERY NOW AND THEN WHEN MARRIED". Is a generalization and you know what I love about generalization, they can be proven wrong. Not all men cheat when they are married because believe it or not, there are some men who take their vows seriously. These men love the women they married and won't let some trick get in the way of that. These men think with their heads not with their dicks. And even thought there may not be a lot of these men now a days, they are still out there. I don't know how the hell any woman in her right mind would of married you. Just by the statements you say on here. You seem like you would be the last last choice that any woman would want to marry. However I know how some woman are, they would married the first bastard that agree to put a ring on their finger. Now back to Ciara, I was thinking about buying "Fantasy Ride" but she lost me with those bad singles. SO now I'm not sure.

@Clo Fresh!!!!!Come on now,you sound like an abused woman in a marriege;bitter and too damn revealing!!!I for one wouldn't be surprised if you are exposed as a snitch of one of those white FBI agents that investigate hip-hop sites trying to pop a nigga for some sort of a "confession".Stay in your lane bro,you just talk too fuckin much for a man (white men excluded!!!).Take it easy son,you might just get yourself a job and a girlfriend in the future coz I seriosly doubt that you are a married employee (atleast one of the two is non-existent!!).Confess already,you are a fed and are targeting blacks.Get a life,you fuckin pig!How you gonna put men on blast like that????!!!!South Africa signing out,and I'm rich BITCH!!!

@NNL....I respect your opinions eventhough you were coming at me a hard....Well I work for a Tech Company, where we actually build websites but I'm not in the Tech department. I really don't wanna get specific as to what type of sites we create cause that will blow my cover with the company that I work for..But I'm on the net pretty much all damn day at work.. Only time I'm not, is when I'm out to lunch or in one of my many boring ass meetings....But,this is why I am able to do this so much, and also that I may be trying to get my own site off the ground...Will c though, I have a few projects going on at the same time..
You may find a few good men out there that will never cheat, but don't it seem like the men that don't cheat, get cheated on??? I'm just trying to live life to the fullest bruh..I think with my head as well. I don't go out looking for chicks or sex, but for some reason it just comes my way when I'm out with the boys or my cousins...And if you, yourself are able to be faithful for the rest of your life during marriage, then my hats off to you bruh...
But you should know my style by now, I keep shit real and speak the truth...
Shit, half of the women don't give a fuck what you do as long as you hold down the home front and keep bringing home that $$$...And you know that's truth...People marry for many different reasons, and the sad thing is love is most of the time not the number 1 reason why people get married.

Have you ever seen Baby Boy????
Well, there was some Real Ass Talk in that movie..

When Tyrese was like "Look, I don't know why I fuck other women, I just do. I LOVE you but I like to fuck them" "That's a hard fact of life that you are just going have to deal with"!!!!
That's simply what I'm trying to tell women....We can love you to death, but the MAJORITY OF MEN, just can't be faithful to 1 woman...I know many dudes that got married, knowing damn well they were going to be cheating..They just want to raise a family, with 1 woman and not deal w/Baby Momma Drama...
And you can't tell me that trying to find a girl or woman these days over the age of 18 w/out any fucking baggage is damn near impossible...

Even though you came at me hard, I be seeing you on this site and that's why I'm not even blowing up or going off as you would normally see me do and that the fact that this is a sensitive subject for the women, much respect bruh!

@ Aubrey_South Afrikana...
Bitch Please!.. Until you answer my question that I have thrown your way on 2 different occasions, you gets no lover or no more responses from me..And you know damn well what I'm talking about.....
Afrikaan is not a word..Bitch, you are a European-African...

CLO....One of my girlfriends to me about this site and the comments about Marriage late last night..When I say that what you commented on, sparked a huge debate that ended up in a fight last night...I'm going to keep this short and sweet..

After speaking to 3 of my closet girl friends on what you said, I wanted to ask my X-Husband. We have been divorced for about 4 years now, and it worked out for the best. He is now my best friend and will always tell me the truth..So when he came over to drop of my son, I made him read your comments...
You know what he said:
"This dude is violating our code the code"!
I said: "So what are you saying, Is he telling the truth, do all or most men feel this way"!!
He looked up at me with half of smirk but with a teary eye and said "YES"..
I did not expect to hear him say that, so I smacked his ass cause he married me with intentions to cheat... We started fighting, but he knows better than try to pull a Chris Brown...
Thaks a lot CLO...You really should of kep that ish to yourself..Now, I doubt that I will ever marry again.

Clo- fresh...I'm a female so stop with the bruths and it's sad that some woman have let your words influence her to never married again. Sad
