Woman down!

Rihanna pulled a Mariah Carey last week when she was performing "What's My Name?" at the Rexall Place in Canada, and lucky for us, the camera was rolling.

It wasn't exactly a face-plant, but there's no way she could play it off like it didn't happen. The "Man Down" singer had to throw out her hands to catch her body from hitting the floor. She even had to reorient herself a bit before getting back into the groove of the song.

Anyway, enough talk. Let's watch.

Wouldn't be so bad IMO if she was actually singing. I think that's the truly embarrassing part. BUSTED!

A person that does nothing never makes mistakes , and maybe she should let the professional dancers do their job and she tone it down a little and stick to her main talents , but no harm , she did it for her audience and i would not critisize her at all .

People fall over all the time. The only reason people think it's a big deal is because she's famous.

No big deal

The only embarrassing part is how many people think this is some big exposure of lipsynching. As if we didn't all know the majority out there lipsynch if performing in a production like that.

As long as she lip syncs on and continues the show.

nice to go to a show and have someone not even sing for you anymore, maybe autotune doesnt work very good on live performances i guess.

No big deal

I would have been, but accidents happen all the time on stage and singers and actors tend to get use to the little bumps in a performance and keep going. Kinda sucks that now everyone knows she wasn't singing live, but not everyone can regulate their breathing to sing and dance simultaneously.

reply
Amasaman to Aingean 2011/06/30 18:43:25

So maybe they shouldn't sing and dance simultaneously! But if people want to go to a concert and hear the same thing as they hear on the CD, fine with me. I'd rather have the spontaneity of live musicians, actually playing their instruments, and singing their songs.

reply
Aingean to Amasaman 2011/06/30 18:49:31

I agree with you, but I am sure there are tons of singers that do it. I dont want to pay a ton of money to hear the c.d.

reply
Amasaman to Aingean 2011/06/30 19:33:09

They're not really singing then. It all goes back to the whole Milli Vanilli thing. They never sang on the albums, and never sang live, so how do you even know what you are paying for? A dance show? Nowadays there is so much technology in the studio, anybody can sing out of tune, and the processor corrects it. That's not singing, and that's why I don't sing in my band. I know what I can and can't do vocally, so I don't even try.

reply
Aingean to Amasaman 2011/06/30 19:38:58

Precisely why I don't go to concerts. I am not any where good at singing, my ability to play instruments is very limited. That is why I write. People try to force their boundaries while they are famous so they can be even more so. Trying to make them a triple threat when they are only good at one of the three. *shrugs* I will never understand famous people.

Amasaman to Aingean 2011/06/30 19:54:35

Goood, everyone takes little spills everyday. Why should it matter so much? I'm sure they were embarrased and would like for it to be over... Or just laugh about it. I know I do when I do something clumsy (which is several times a day) XD

We don't care about that bitch, and well it's proof she can't sing without her voice being mixed in studios. She felt, and that's good. She doesn't even sing in her mic, that's good..
Worst R&B; female singer ever.

The Fall itself wasn't that big a deal. She recovered quickly to me. Didn't look that bad.

Embarrassing more that it did reveal she wasn't really singing live. Sad but I kind of expect it when they sing and dance.

everybody falls! i tripped over a towel. no joke. but she kept on going like it didnt happen. plus lady gagas fall was waaaay worse.
the thing she should be embarrassed over is her lip syncing.

Not because she fell but because she was lip-syncing.

Those have got to be the strangest costumes I have seen. You know, unless you compare them to Lady Gaga.
