See Rihanna Live on Monday

Stoke Newington girl gone global, Leona Lewis, launching her album at the Hackney Empire is one thing. Caribbean pop superstar Rihanna doing it is another matter, but that's exactly what's happening on Monday night, when the robot lady of pop hits the rainy streets of our fair capital in promotion of her new saucy album 'Rated R'.

The location of the gig is a secret for now, but we're told it holds 1000 people and the gig will be around 8pm. Any guesses? Tickets are available soley for competition winners, so it's a bit handy that we have the ability to make you one. Want to be there? Email londonist@gmail.com with rihanna in the title and we will sort one of you out. We hope she is wearing this exact outfit, particularly the eye patch.
