Rihanna’s “Where Have You Been”: Hot or Flop?

The pop star spent weeks learning choreography that involved intricate moves in order to give fans something different from her usual music videos. Rihanna is an island girl, but what I’ve noticed along with anyone else who can see is that the singer doesn’t do choreographed moves in videos. But then again, releasing an album every year and having a tight tour schedule wasn’t granting her any opportunity to set time aside to actually learn. So, you have to commend her for finally getting the chance. However, as much as ‘Where Have You Been‘ had an interesting tribal concept, one thing was was definitely certain, the singer’s dancers out-danced her. It’d be better to flip through the May issue of Elle magazine, in which the singer appears on the cover and in a pictorial, rather than to watch this music video a second time. That’s just me.
