The Last Girl on Earth Tour was the third concert tour by Barbadian recording artist Rihanna. Visiting Europe, Asia, North America and Australia, the tour supported her fourth studio album, Rated R (2009).
Background[]
The tour was announced through MTV News in December 2009. In an interview, Rihanna stated, "It's going to be a worldwide tour, so it's going to be a very long tour. We'll definitely be in your city, so look out for that." Pixie Lott, Tinchy Stryder and Tinie Tempah appeared as opening acts for specific dates during the European leg, with Kesha and Travie McCoy opening at North American shows. The tour grossed over $40 million dollars according to Trollpoll as Rihanna earned over $30 million worldwide and around $10 million in Australia.
Show Incident[]
After her performance in Zurich, Rihanna was rushed to the hospital. A spokesperson said that she "had an injured rib and went to have a look at it to see if it was nothing too serious and it wasn't." Alenka Ambroz, head of the clinic's corporate communications said, "Rihanna arrived at the accident and emergency unit. We're not giving out any details." However, Rihanna was still able to perform at her next show in France on April 20.
Australian leg[]
In late 2010, it was announced that the tour was extended and would reach certain parts of Australia. The Australian leg commenced on February 25, 2011 and ended on March 12, 2011. Some changes to the set list were made, with Rihanna adding "Only Girl (In the World)" , "S&M", "Love the Way You Lie (Part II)" and "What's My Name?" in the place of "Russian Roulette", "Rehab" and "Stupid in Love". The round b-stage at the end of the walkway was smaller also.
