Posted: 19th Nov 2009

Barbadian Superstar, Rihanna will be performing on The X Factor Show this Sunday, November 29^th.

Rihanna will be singing her new single ‘Russian Roulette’ Live from her upcoming album ‘Rated R’ on the ITV show; she is also expected to act as a mentor to the remaining contestants.

Rihanna still only 21 years old revealed that she was “beyond excited” about her upcoming appearance on X Factor.

The Superstar is currently in the UK having performed exclusively on Monday night  at the Brixton Academy. The Media event was organised courtesy of her coporate sponsers Mobile Phone  giants Nokia rather than a proper gig it would seem as  though it decended into something far more than anyone could of expected. 

This was Rihanna’s first headline apperance since the notorious ‘Chris Brown’ incident and the gig was also simultaneously streamed worldwide.

Two special guest apperances came from Young Jeezy contributing to Rihanna’s new track “Hard” then Jay-Z took to the stage to perform “Run This Town” and “Umbrella”.

The 21 year old  has certainly bounced back and rumours has it, she appears to be in love again. MTV reported that she might be in a relationship with a young actor, Tristan Wilds, who is currently starring in the new episodes of Beverly Hills.

The alleged relationship was sparked when Rihanna threw a big party recently and Tristian was spotted getting close to the Star.

Rihanna has also reported she will be designing a new clothing line which will be due out in 2010.

Rated R is released on November 23. Rihanna appears on The X Factor on November 29.
