Rihanna is the latest music star to guest perform on the X Factor.
The singer will appear on an edition of the ITV talent show later this month, following in the footsteps of Bon Jovi, Robbie Williams, Whitney Houston and Leona Lewis.
Speaking about the show, Rihanna said: “I am beyond excited - it was the easiest decision I've ever made. A lot of people watch the show over here on YouTube and I personally caught a lot of it when Leona Lewis was on, who's an amazing artist.
“So, to say yes to Simon (Cowell) was an honour, especially as I know the show so well.”
