Rihanna Won't Perform At The Grammys

It's hard to believe that it has been a year since Rihanna was brutally beaten by Chris Brown on their way to the Grammy Awards, but it has, and since Rihanna has a new album out and all, it was assumed that the pop princess would perform.
However, Rihanna confirmed on Carson Daly's radio show yesterday that she wouldn't be taking the stage. When Carson asked who he could call to correct this injustice, Rihanna replied:
“I don’t know. We messed up the show pretty bad last year, so they’re probably a little mad at me right now.”
What?! No way! If that were in any way true, they would be the most giant group of dickheads in the industry!
Stop being so hard on yourself, girl! We're sure they would love to have you! Course, if you wanted to skip it, we would understand. A whole evening of awkward stares and probing questions doesn't sound fun to us either.

Rihanna is a beautiful girl when she dresses nice and not like a slut bull dyke. She should totally model and stop subjecting us to her horrible music.
QUIT TALKING ABOUT THIS! ITS NOT LIKE HE BEAT HER SO SEVERELY THAT SHE HAD TO GET PLASTIC SURGERY! SHE STILL IS PARADING AROUND LIKE A SLUT AND GETTING SYMPATHY. BUT SHE DOESN'T GET ANY SYMPATHY FROM ME! ALL SHE IS IS TRAILER TRASH! THAT'S IT. "BRUTALLY BEATEN"? PUH-LEAZE! I HAVE SEEN MEN AND WOMEN BEATEN TIL THEY WERE BLACK AND BLUE, BROKEN RIBS AND BUSTED UP FACES. SHE HAD A FEW BRUISES AND SCRATCHES. WAAA WAAA!! GET THE FUCK OVER IT!
Perez, stop making excuses for her. She's not nominated, is she? She's got nothing new that's not totally shit. What's she gonna sing, the stupid umbrella song again?
yes she fucked up he show last time u ugly bitch
perform what? the shiteous songs from her album? no thanks
who cares…another singer who sounds like nails on a chalk board
jesus fucking christ, why don't you just have your tongue surgically implanted up her ass already? you're boring us all to death with this crap.
Ohh riri I used to be a big fan, I felt bad when chris beat u down but u've been parading urself like nothing happened and I lost all respect for u, I hope u can get ur pride back :0
rihanna is not performing at the grammys because she does not have grammy caliber talent, simple as that. it has nothing to do with anything else.
I'd only want to see her perform if it was with SHY RONNIE!!!!
they weren't on their way to the grammys.
Na she knew Lady Gaga (someone REAL vocal talent) would out do her ass!!!!
thank GOD did you here how to sounded on new yearzzzz WOW!! it was really bad!
Yay!
good! shes horrible on stage. maybe the grammys know that & thats why she wasnt asked to perform.
oh no. we wont get to watch her lip sync.
How dare they diss your precious "Princess RiRi"!!! Funny how she never mentions your name or wants to be associated with you in any way. I don't like the girl but at least she is smart enough to realize that any communication with you would be career suicide. Sliimy who??????
good riddance of this one…..she got beaten by someone just like what's happening to numerous ppls around the world, so what???that doesn't put her in the most pitiful condition considering what's going on in this world every day..
oh please, mario, how many performers can they possible have on the show without it running all night long? They have a cross section of performers, not the ones mario wants. how many nominatins does she have? There are more categories than pop and r&b out there and the grammies recognizes them all and has to let them perform.
omg she HAS to get over it !!!!!!!!!! and Chris brown did Brutaly beat her she would have broken bones or somthing, wow she has a bruise we all get those like GET THE HELL OVER IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! all shes doing is trying to get attention, GOD she is honestly the gayest person EVER
Good luck RIRI maybe next year. Work on yourself, love yourself and do what you have to do to be good to yourself. Come back with a kick arse album. You can do it. You took an oath and you're stick out until the end.
Now that it's raining more ever you can stand under a umbrella….
Best wishes!
The entire Chris Brown/Rihanna incident was not handled properly by either properties. She could've came out WAY on top, but decided to make ALL the wrong choices. You live and you learn RiRi…
I love how he goes off on a tangent at the end talking directly to Rihanna, as if she'd actually read it & give a shit.
Great this skank should just go away and keep her mouth shut, hate her music
-
She's not performing because SHE WAS NOT ASKED TO PERFORM NOR WILL SHE BE ASKED
-
The Grammy's are a joke but they at least try to maintain the illusion of awarding performers who have had a modicum of success in the previous year. They don't give Grammy's to talentless nobodies who can't sing, put out shitty, shitty albums and sickeningly use a domestic abuse situation to try and peddle her piece of shit music

OVER IT!!! No one wants to hear that slut sing anyway.
Funny game ))))))) oh wait actually im bored to death. Everything is just the same , only two words made me laugh "brutally beaten" how pathetic
Wow these girls on here are retarded and so is Rihanna for acting like it was her fault that she got beat up!!! No man should put his hands on a woman even if she is bitching at him!! Chris Brown barely got in any trouble for what he did and if it had been any non-celeb he would have gone to jail so I don't see why anyone feels bad for his sorry ass.
But yeah her music sucks so its no surprise that she isnt performing!
Riahnna is not pop she is r&b and she was party to blame for the attack from Chris Brown because if you do your research she attacked him first, get your facts straight
Perez is so stupid. Rhianna has no nominations except "Run This Town" with Jay-Z. There is no reason for her to perform.
I think shes fat.
Weren't you just complaining about Demi Moore skipping on some event because she was sick and you called her ungrateful, but with Rihanna you understnd and wouldn't want to go either??
Pathetic bitch is still milking her smack down.
She is fat and ugly and has a bitchy attitude. My friend met her once in the office he works at in NYC. She was rude and snotty.
As someone who has seen Rihanna in concert twice this is good news, I would rather see Chris Brown any day. Her live act is awful, she jsut needs to ride the pretty girl things out and live the live performances to the real talent not that there is much out there these days

I wondered if it was possible for me to be any sicker of this person? Apparently so.
Wish she could change places with one of the innocent Haiti victims that was buried in the rubble. This girl has bitch written all over her face.
Thank goodness the Grammy organizers came to their senses!!!!
why she is like and out there girl but dhe better get better
THANK GOD! she is sooooooooooo annoying! can't satand her and her voice and her ¨music¨, if you ask me, i would never call that shit music
oh boo hoo..you mean i wont get to look at her gi-NOR-mus forehead on tv..dang i hate that!..i would MUCH rather listen to her than LOOK at her!
No one cares about Rihanna anymore, she's done.
Everyone who thinks what Chris Brown did wasn't a big deal are fucking idiots. Yeah we all fell in love with him, but beating your girlfriend up so bad she almost had a broken nose isn't fucking right. I'm a huge fan and I'm sick and tired of everyone making excuses for him and making it look like what he did was minor. I'm a big fan of both artists, but what he did wasn't "acceptable".
Re: supersongbird – omg i was gonna say the same thing, ur my new friend
Perez, you have some nasty ass viewers Babe. i just dont get why all these people are bashing someone with Chris now…she did what she had to do as a woman ad that was realize that the situation was NOT for her and move one. Also, how the FUCK is she parading around like nothing happened…? The shit happened A YEAR AGO.. And WTF does everyone want her to do…? Act like Chris Breezy just beat the shit out of her? That's some bullshit and they know it. Nobody wallks around afriad when things like that happen, I mean you do at first bc you're afraid but DAMMIT you just gotta let shit go and move on. You're readers aree acting like she's supposed to fuckin act lik a scared little bitch… but, uh, NO bc she isn't. What happened has happened and the smart thing to do is go about your life and live it to the fullest…which is what Rhianna is doing… Damn. People are so fuckin judgmental it's utterly ridiculous. You must have a lot of rich white people leaving comments about this shit who have never known anyone who has gone through that shit becasue they are the most judgmental people I've ever encountered. WOW, and I thought we Americans were better than this but sadly I see we are not. If yall dont' like her music, fine but to bash this BAD BITCH like that is PURE jealousy and yall need to have a few hands slapped across yall face… And WTF was up with the ASSHOLE who said she didn't look that bad and only had a few bruises? DUDE, this is some BULLSHIT…Bitches.
