The Black Eyed Peas, Usher, and Slash held it down during the Super Bowl XLV Halftime Show, and now, the NBA is getting its own star wattage. Keri Hilson and Bruno Mars have been tapped to perform on the magenta carpet during the NBA All-Star pre-game show, while Rihanna will take the stage at halftime.
The “Grenade” singer will link up with Miss Keri at the players showcase, set to be hosted by Nick Cannon from Los Angeles’ Staples Center. Meanwhile, RiRi shared her excitement in celebrating her 23rd birthday by holding it down as the sole halftime performer. “YES!! I get the entire halftime show @ NBA All-Star Weekend,” tweeted the Bajan beauty.
The 2011 NBA All-Star Game will air live on Sunday, February 20, on TNT.

-______- ARE you kidding me? SMH, I will say no more because any well written opinion that is against Rihanna, he stans or navy as they call it will attack the person on sight over the comuter, ’cause you know they’re only internet bullies

I could give a f*ck about Riyodel!
I just hope that Keri doesn’t perform ‘Pretty Girl Rock’ AGAIN!I’m sick to death of that song! She really needs to drop a new single! Love her album and she needs to
I lOVE Bruno so I’m excited to see him. I’m sure he will perform ‘Grenade’ though.

^^^ I DONT THINK SHE WILL STOP PERFORMING PRETTY GIRL ROCK BECAUSE SHE WANTS IT TO DO EVEN BETTER. ITS RISING HIGH ON RYTHMIC RADIO. SHE IS ALREADY GOT THE #1 SONG URBAN RADIO AND NOW ITS #12 ON RYTHMIC RADIO. IF IT KEEPS INCREASING ON MAINSTREAM THIS SONG WILL GO TOP 20 AND MAYBE EVEN REACH #15 JUST DEPENDS… ITS CURRENTLY #31 AND IS EXPECTED TO RISE TO THE 25-27 ZONE ON BILLBOARD THIS THURSDAY. IM EXCITED FOR HER BUT IM TIRED OF PRETTY GIRL ROCK SHE NEEDS TO MOVE ON TO LOSE CONTROL. BUT SHE IS ALREADY WORKING ON HER THIRD ALBUM ACCORDING TO INTERSCOPE. BUT I LOVE KERI AND SUPPORT HER NO MATTER WHAT

February 8th, 2011 at 4:51 pm
so basically these “performances” are going to consit of mediocre singing, nonexistence stage presence, and walking *sigh*(._.)
[Reply]
February 8th, 2011 at 6:04 pm
Well apparently…people cared enough to comment so ppl care enough to watch…smh
A collaboration between all three would be dope!that won’t happen but it would be dope anyways! Lol

February 8th, 2011 at 6:12 pm
ii think rihanna is one of the most underrated performers…ppl say stage presence this singing that, but @ the amas did she not dance? Did she not sing “lltwyl” and “what’s my name” great? Did she not come out with full confidence?
She certainly did but ppls hate can see that…haters know that was a good performance but won’t admit it so all u can do is sit back watch her do her thing…tsk tsk tsk

ppl jus go buy rihnna new album loud and see her and tour dis year

I love rihanna but let’s be real, her live singing voice isn’t the best unless shes standing in place. for whatever reason she can not hold a note when she makes it. i remember when she and ciara had just come out people were arguing that ciara couldnt hit a high note but was consistent whereas rihanna could but she is so shrill live.
With that said, I know it’s gonna be a good show ! With Kanye there who knows whats gonna happen lol
