Rihanna’s Wembley concert fails to draw in crowds

Mirror LONDON-Rihanna’s first London gig seemingly failed to set the capital alight on Friday.

As the UK left the EU, the Bajan pop beauty brought her ANTI World tour to Wembley Arena, but didn’t draw in the crowds she’s used to. Not only that, audience members complained that the singer disappeared from stage for up to 10 minutes at a time.

A source told Mirror Celebs: “She rushed through the songs and everything was double the tempo. There were 10-minute dance breaks where she went off stage and nobody knew what is going on.

“Fans weren’t too happy with the performance and there were a lot of empty seats.”

While fans took to Twitter to point out just how empty the 90,000 capacity north-west London venue was. “My does Rihanna concert at Wembley look so dead, it’s half empty,” one wrote.

Another shared: “Wow how empty is Wembley. Poor Rihanna.” Though plenty of fans also praised the performance, with one describing it as “epic”.
