A mess at this being news. She's late to her shows, is anyone surprised anymore? It's indefensible but it's just how it is.
All the Rihanna "fans" defending this behavior by saying "she makes $$$ so w/e HATERZ" need to get your heads out of your asses. The fact that no one takes her seriously as anything but a singles artist and sexy model should be concerning to you as consumers who clearly invest in an artist like this. Take off your stan goggles and realize that your defensive basic bitch attitude serves no one, least of all your fave.
Hell, even Madge is notorious for coming on stage late but unlike Rihanna,
A) always delivers an amazing show with strongly executed choreography, thought out, thematic set-pieces, and live vocals not buried by backing tracks (although I doubt many people come for Madge's vocals, as capable as she's become tbh),
B) explained recently on Ellen that she's late because she's busy making sure everything is perfect for her show (and if you've ever seen
any of her many behind the scenes footage, you know she takes her shows seriously),
C) she is ****ing Madonna.
