Singer Rihanna had thousands of adoring fans screaming her name this morning as she took to the stage in the centre of New York.

Traffic came to a standstill around Times Square as RiRi belted out tracks from her new album.

Just recently Rihanna said she had moved on with her life since she was brutally attacked by her former beau, Chris Brown.

And she really did look HOT! HOT! HOT! today despite the cold.
