Rihanna gets real on 'SNL'
Rihanna showed how she has grown into one of the best live pop acts around on "Saturday Night Live." Not only did she transform "What's My Name" into a funkier, less-synthesized number, but she channeled a new confidence and a renewed sense of fun. This version of "What's My Name" beats the recorded version easily, even without the Drake cameo. And the less-dancey, more-rock-ish version of "Only Girl in the World" is another improvement. Good for RiRi.
