Rihanna Performing on The X Factor

The show has just lined up a huge performer for next week—Rihanna! Paula Abdul spilled the news to the Hollywood Reporter saying that the deal is being ironed out right now. And it's perfect timing if you think about it, seeing as though her new album Talk That Talk is coming on November 21st. The theme for next week was supposed to be all about Madonna and Lady Gaga, but according to Simon Cowell that's been changed to rock. He said quote, I thought doing Lady Gaga and Madonna could get a bit too choreography-led. Rock music gives you a better chance to use the whole stage like we did on the auditions."
