RIHANNA - SATURDAY, AUGUST 7 AT 7:30 PM

evenko and Live Nation are thrilled to welcome Rihanna on August 7 at the Bell Centre with her new tour: Last Girl On Earth.   

Rihanna, in the midst of her 4th critically-acclaimed album release Rated R, a smash #1 single with “Rude Boy,” and a highly anticipated upcoming international tour, has confirmed dates for her 2010 North American tour, Last Girl On Earth.  The multi-platinum and Grammy award winning superstar, who recently broke a Billboard record with her current number one single “Rude Boy,” becoming the only female artist of the past decade to have six #1 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the United States, will be joined by rising star Ke$ha, who will open all dates on tour.  

“We’ve never done a tour to this capacity.  The production is unbelievable and the costumes, we just took it to a whole new level. Visually and sonically it’s going to be a big step up from the last time. We just keep growing and this time it is a massive production that I cannot wait for,” said Rihanna in a recent interview with AOL.

A dynamic performer renowned for her cutting-edge stage looks and designs, Rihanna’s Last Girl On Earth promises to be a visual spectacle on a scale unlike anything she has accomplished in her already legendary career.

Released in November 2009, Rihanna’s fourth studio album Rated R debuted atop the Billboard R&B Albums chart at #1and was the biggest first-week Soundscan tally of Rihanna’s career. The eagerly anticipated album arrived to a chorus of acclaim from critics and fans alike. Rolling Stone raved “one of the best pop records of the year.” The Chicago Sun Times called it “by far the best, most layered and most heartfelt effort of the 21-year-old artist's career.” In its year-end recap, Entertainment Weekly named Rated R the Pop Album of the Year.

When buying a Rihanna Fan Club membership (35$), you get the opportunity to buy tickets before the public on-sale, on April 20th at 10am. Membership is available at http://www.evenko.ca.
