Tickets for the Barbados-born R'n'B diva's February 26 show in the RDS Simmonscourt went on sale this morning and brisk demand has prompted promoters to announce a second concert on the following night.

In other Rihanna-related rumblings, the Rap Ireland DJ Team led by Frank No.1 Jez and featuring DJ’s Ahmed Idris, Tando, Mo-K and DJ Hix have been invited on tour with the singer after impressing her with their support slots when she played Belfast and Dublin last year.

Tickets are priced €40 and are on sale now.
