You go, girl!

Rihanna was presented with a recording achievement plaque during the Island Def Jam Spring Collection party in NYC on Wednesday for celebrating 12 million records sold.

In a day when most people just buy singles, that's quite an accomplishment!

Proud of you, RiRi.

      What is with her eye? This is the second picture you've posted of her with that eye closed.



    6. 6

      Those 4 albums only sold 12 million copies? THAT'S SHIT!, Avril lavignes last 3 albums have sold 31 million albums!. P.S. The man next to her is l.a. reid he's the record mogul behind her music and image, and is the sole reason why she's famous.

      Hannah Montana's first album sold 5 million copies alone. She sold 1.6 million copies in the first two months. Hooray Miley.

    39. 39

      What, people really buy her albums? Jesus, the girl has a terrible voice and can't sing. Just because people feel sorry for her, they want to pretend she is a star? By the way she doesn't have to do anything for domestic abuse. She is not the Messiah, comming to save other people.People should learn to solve their own problems.



    40. 40

      love Rihanna !!!!She is just so iconic.

    48. 48

      Re: Miley Cyrus…The Princess of All Media – Yeah she sold to a different audience.
      Millions of 8 year olds don't know any good music hence they take in anything their soccer moms give them (which is Hannah Montana).

      Rihanna has to sell her crap to adults and teenagers



    49. 49

      Re: mkaolsen – Brittany also showed her ass/cooch to the world.



    50. 50

      theres a lot of singers getting paid and cannot sing, rihanna singing might not appeal to you because it has a carribbean , raggea, her singing style is contemporary r/b, and pop/rock with synthesize carribbean rhythms and beats and you do not have to like her music , she can appeal to all demographics and that helps, and she has not reached the status of britney,i love britney but britney and beyonce are more on the same level, and britney is a thron in beyonce back beyonce crazy in love sold 4.2 mill and went platiuum 4 times , b day went platium 3 times and she is at 2 mill , on her sasha album and getting ready to remix it and drop it on june the 16 rihanna is holding her own love her or hate her she is here to stay. where did 13 millions come from, we know how to count you know .



    51. 51

      abour rihannas hair standing up on her head , rihanna at ant time and any place when the time calls for her to get dressed to impressed she never fails she was voted one of the best dressed stars in hollywood, by people mag. and was featured in there book on 3 pages and check out sbh sophisticate's black hair she is on the cover for the second straight year, bring it up and check vibe/vixen for 2007 and pay close attention to her hair she knows how to get it together when she has to, and in hype hair for the last tso years rihanna has been voted their best styled star her style of dress, her beautiful skin her fashionable status she is 5ft 9in tall and can work the hell out of some stilettos, and here lately because of the attack on her and because she called the police after the attack, she has been slandered and called ever naset name in the book be chris stans what if he had killed her, and if she was such a terrible person we would heard about it before now.



    52. 52

      after rihanna signed with def jams ceo at the time jay-z carte the bajan beauty three years after she signed rihannamania has taken hold around the world and turned international –it– girl in 2005 when rihanna left barbado to pursue her american dream she began a media blitz that hasn't stoped since. the singer has been linked to jay-z her mentor romantically which is a lie and to shia labeouf, who spoke out on the matter last week, josh harnett, jenner people tries to connect her to every person that she comes into contack with, she and kenya west are going to do some music together and they are trying that its him now jay-z and west are like big brothers of rihannas. and the public is affraid that she is parting to much thats brown stans trying to paint a bad picture of rihanna and its not fair.



    53. 53

      rihanna was not put on this earth to raise other people childrens, if she is setting a bad example because she has not spoken out on abuse, thats her business moms and days are supposed to raise their own childrens ophra, and trya, had their say larry king, had judge judy on every one has spoken out and brows, stans are low-rating them and talking about them like dogs the calls themself team chris, chris should have kept his dam hands to himself and now that the horses are out of the barn he is tryin to close the door hes the one who ius keeping the flames burning, and they need to let this shit go , he should have not did his shit and ran like a doy away and now hes is mad as hell because thei chick is moving on with her life with his jealous ass, rihanna is all over magazine covers what would she have to gain by putting her pictures out there hes working overtime trying to bring this young lady down and no she is not the top star out there but she is working on it and hate all you want to on her because she will reep the rewards of your hate.



    54. 54

      her record persented this rewards to her from her sales, and some stands had the nerve to call her a w and that she did not deresve this award she stated that there was plenty of stars out there that deserved it and i can say yes to part of that but how did rihanna turn into all of these nasety names over night and if you want to do some comparing then compare alicia keys to the music thats out there her album in a minor sold over 10 milliom and went platium 6 times , lady ga ga look at how good she is doing 3-millioms already and climbing , taylor swift over 4-milliom unit and i would say thats up there.
