Fans of Rihanna can see a performance by the singer during a break in a London hotel in May.

The Barbadian musician will play gigs at the O2 Arena on May 10th and 11th 2010 as part of a full UK tour.

Fans can expect to see material from her latest album Rated R performed, as well as older singles such as Umbrella, which dominated the UK charts throughout the summer of 2007.

She has also had number ones around the world with songs including SOS, Don't Stop the Music and Take a Bow.

British pop star Pixie Lott will be the support act for the shows, with the singer capitalising on her success last year, which included her debut single Boys and Girls going to number one, by playing to a large crowd at the O2 Arena.

Attendees of the gigs may wish to stay in a London hotel after the shows.

London accommodation with good transport links to the O2 Arena includes the Portland and the Grange City Hotel.
