Rihanna's 3-hour-delay angered fans

Singer Rihanna continues to test her fans' patience. She showed up more than three hours late for her show in Monte Carlo, Monaco. The audience grew restless as the show was nowhere near beginning for several hours. Her fans had paid at least $782 for tickets of the show, which included dinner, and was originally scheduled to start at 8:30 pm, according to information on ticketing websites.

Many fans tweeted about the delay on twitter. "Still no news of Rihanna. She got lost in 2 square kms," read a tweet under the Twitter handle of @MorganeK.

The wait was for so long that the audience felt this was like an abuse. "Are you lost?" the same fan asked, adding: "We're waiting Frankly, this delay is abuse." Another fan tweeted: "No, I haven't been waiting… for 3 hours for nothing, have I? She's three hours late."

Finally, around 11:30 pm, a tweet from the Monte Carlo Beach Society read that Rihanna was on her way, and about ten minutes later, she finally showed up. "It's a record delay. But we love her anyway," @MorganeK posted thereafter. The delay factor is not a new act done by Rihanna. The 25-year-old singer has made her audience wait during other performances too.
