Watch Rihanna Perform Four Times At The VMAs

Rihanna is receiving the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award at tonight’s MTV Video Music Awards, and instead of one gigantic 15-minute medley (or, as Kanye West opted for last year, a surreal, rambling speech punctuated by a presidential campaign announcement), Rih is performing four times throughout the night. That’s certainly one way to keep people watching! The first of her four appearances doubled as the show’s opening segment, and you can watch it below.
