Rihanna booed by 'mad as hell' Boston crowd after keeping them waiting for THREE HOURS for rescheduled concert

By Sarah Bull


  • Singer had postponed March show after contracting laryngitis
  • With no opening act, fans were left waiting for three hours for the singer
  • Rihanna's lack of apology after the show further angered her fans
She left her fans disappointed in March when illness caused her to cancel her Diamonds World Tour in Boston.
But after rescheduling her concert for Monday night, Rihanna further angered her patient fans by turning up to the stage three hours late - causing them to boo the singer as she performed.
And with no opening act for the show at the TD Garden venue, concertgoers were quick to take to Twitter to voice their frustrations over the singer's tardiness.
Angering her fans: Rihanna, seen here leaving her New York hotel over the weekend, was booed by the Boston crowd in the latest stop of her Diamonds World Tour on Monday night by keeping them waiting for three hours

One fan wrote: 'Boston waited 2 months and then Rihanna was 3 hours late to her packed concert. She deserved to get booed! We were mad as hell.'
Another wrote: '@rihanna just showed up over three hours late in Boston for a make up show since she canceled a few months back due to sickness. Im over her.'
And while no reason was given for Rihanna's lateness, many speculated that it was because the basketball fan was watching the Chicago Bulls take on Miami Heat in the opening contest of the NBA Eastern Conference semi-finals.

One Twitter user wrote: '@rihanna 2-3 hrs late for your show in Boston, huh??! #disrespectful #noexcuse basketball was more important huh?? Don't come back.'
And another added: 'Thank you @rihanna for playing an hour long concert and lip syncing the whole thing. I'm glad u "balled out" for Boston.'
Others suggested that the singer could be finding things hard to cope with following Chris Brown's admission that the pair were no longer together over the weekend.

Rihanna made no explanation for her late arrival to the stage when she tweeted following the show: '#BOSTON I will never forget this night!!! I truly have deeper love for you now!!! Thank you for making it extra special!! #DWT.'
However, the singer's lack of any form of apology further angered many fans, with one writing: 'So after the show that her fans waited 3hrs for, Rihanna tweets no explanation/apology. Rather, "BOSTON I will never forget this night!!!'
But while many were left unimpressed by Rihanna's behaviour, others remained loyal to their idol.
Stage presence: Rihanna has been delighting fans with her performances so far on the world tour

One wrote: 'I take it back @rihanna Boston loves you. #bestconcertever #BostonStrong tribute was unreal. So worth the wait.'
And another added: '@badgalriri showed up a little late but you made it up!!! I Loved the concert:).'
In March, Rihanna tweeted her apologies after being forced to postpone the concert due to a bout of laryngitis.

She wrote: '#BOSTON this is the hardest thing for me to deal with! I feel like we've been waiting on this day forever, and I'm hurt that I let you down.'
