RihannaDespite being involved in the year's most covered and talked about chain of events, Def Jam recording star Rihanna is still packing in credits for the smash album "Good Girl Gone Bad" and the massive single "Disturbia".

Rihanna's 2008 single "Disturbia" has, as of March 26, been certified three (3X) times Platinum by the RIAA, proving that the Barbadian songbird is still riding high on not only the radio charts but sales charts as well.

"Disturbia" becomes the third single from "Good Girl Gone Bad" to be certified multi-Platinum. In fact, "Disturbia" was just certified double Platinum in December, revealing that Rihanna has moved at least 1 million copies of the single in three months.

A follow up to "Good Girl Gone Bad" is slated for release later this year.

    Go Rihanna!!! "Umbrella" was triple plat too, as was "Take A Bow". She just keeps going and going...lol And he was one of THREE writers, people, let's not get it twisted. Wait, didn't Chris give his royalties to Rihanna? He said he would. Can you spell SPRUNG LOL That song would not have been a hit without Rihanna and that video. Everyone knows that. "I feel like da monster ooohhhh." You can tell Chris WROTE it cause it's about that CRAZY that he obviously struggles with on a daily basis. He has a dark side and feels like "da monster" sometimes. I hope he can get some meds to make it better! Po thang!! But chalk it up to another big hit for Rihanna!! You go girl!!! Her CD is still in the top 100 too, as is "Live Your LIfe" with T.I.

  3. Tracie says:

    FYI Chris Brown wrote and produced the song Disturbia which is further proof of his multi talents! Go Chris...God Bless!

    Cb fan, and jane you both said it well. I disagree about the hell part ,no rihi don't want to go there. And the American hating part most of her fans are American. I hate the DAY Cb and Rihanna ever starting dating that was the end to it all. Chris Brown Fan forever! Everybody(Real fans, admirers any person really) pray for Cb he needs all our good prayers and pray for Rihanna too she is going to need it after this, especially if she puts our boy CB in Jail...........Cb fans will rip her apart minus me, because I'm not the violent type. lol But seriously pray for CB, have mercy.

    CHRIS WROTE (CO-WROTE) THE SONG SO GIVE HIM A CONGRATS TOO. HE'S POCKETING MOST OF THE MONEY. THE BUNNY BOILER (RI) JUST SANG THE SONG. SHE CAN'T WRITE, CAN'T DANCE ALL SHE CAN DO IS SING OUT OF HER NOSE AND SET TALENTED BROTHERS UP.

  6. jane says:

    Chris Brown was slated to be the entertainer of the year, before he allowed that american hating jealous caribbean creep to steal his thunder. Stay away from haters american people. i hope she rots in hell. Being rewarded for provoking him, and setting him up.

  7. Benny says:

    i'm not even sure i believe this. that idiot can't even sing.

  8. viola says:

    Any success she had is due to Chris Brown writing that song, and promoting her sorry azz. That is the thanks he gets for neglecting his own career to help her no talented azz.

  9. Dee says:
