As it was reported last month, Rihanna was set to make her comeback performance on May 28th with a major concert in Dubai, her first official public appearance and performance since the Chris Brown drama went down. The concert had been promoted for weeks and was definitely going to be huge. However, the concert has been cancelled! According to Vibe Event Management, the concert is officially off stating “We want to share with you that Rihanna and her management will not be accepting to hold a public concert at this time as it is not appropriate timing for her.” I hope she finds that so-called appropriate time soon.
American Idol did something different during last night’s show when they had the remaining 4 hopefuls pair up to perform a duet in between the solo performance. Kris Allen and Danny Gokey were the first to try their voices out for a duet after Adam Lambert and Allison Iraheta performed their solos. Kris and Danny sang ‘Renegade’ by Styx. Their harmonies were amazing but Simon Cowell commented that Danny was better than Kris. Adam and Allison closed the show with their duet rendition of Foghat’s ‘Slow Ride’. Simon said that “In the battle of the duets, you win the show tonight” and I completely agree. He even said that Adam may have given Allison another week on the show with that performance. Combine the duets comments along with the solo performance comments and it seems that Kris is really on his way out.
