Rihanna is busy shooting a music video for her next single "Hard". Met by MTV during the video shoot, she explained the concept, "It's couture-military. Everything is surrounded by the whole idea of something military. We have tanks, we have troops, we've got helicopters, we've got explosions ... Tight gear, lot's of cute outfits, lot's of bullets. Crazy."
In addition, she also talked about her forthcoming tour which will be kicked off in spring next year. "The tickets are going to be up for presale in a couple weeks, actually," she said. "It's going to be a worldwide tour, so it's going to be a very long tour."
"[We're] coming out with different ideas and cool things that we can do. Things that we've never seen before, daring things - but now is when we really start with the rehearsal and we get into the nitty-gritty and the details of everything. I love taking risks. I'm not afraid of the unknown."
"Hard" features Young Jeezy and is taken from Rihanna's November 23 release "Rated R" which is currently sitting at No. 4 on Billboard Hot 200. Its music video is directed by Melina Matsoukas and yet to have any premiere date.
Most recently on December 3, Rihanna has performed at Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City. Starting from 6 P.M. PT / 9 P.M. ET, the gig is made available for stream on her MySpace.
