Rihanna 777 Page #3

---

From your flight crew, welcome on board,

it's nice to have you back.

This was just, you know,

basically supposed to be about fun,

celebrating the seventh album,

seventh year,

and I'm sure a lot

of people met each other,

and people probably made some friends

off of that plane, and probably friends

for life.

I met people from all around the world.

Just getting to know the media,

and seeing how they... how they work,

and seeing Rihanna do this,

'cause I don't know any other artist

that would charter an aircraft this large

and put this many people on the aircraft,

and travel with her.

It is actually fairly unique, really.

If anything it compares

to the sort of brutal

touring schedules of like '70s Aerosmith

and Zeppelin when suddenly it made sense

to be on a plane.

But keeping in mind there's what?

Forty people on that plane maybe?

Twenty-five and 10 are groupies.

This is an operation

that was I think unique,

and should remain so.

Welcome to Stockholm.

We're taxing to a remote gate.

You will be going down some air stairs,

so watch your step going down.

Temperature's a little bit

warmer than our forecast.

It's about 40, 42 degrees,

and we certainly hope

you enjoyed your flight.

We'll see you tomorrow.

As soon as I found out that

she was coming here I ran.

My best friend calls me,

and she's like, "Yeah,

we'll... we have free tickets,

you have to go."

And I'm like, "I'm

literally five minutes away."

Rather special for Stockholm to be

one of the seven cities.

My God, I love Rihanna.

I love her style, I love her music,

I love everything about her.

I do think she's one of like

the top three major artists

in the world right now.

We're usually sleeping,

and to get up nice and early

to serve the flight, the seven day tour,

but it's gonna be kind of

difficult tomorrow morning,

but we're gonna make it happen.

I've been everywhere, man

Looking for someone

Someone who can please me

Love me all night long

I've been everywhere, man

Looking for you, babe

Looking for you, babe

Searching for you, babe

Where have you been

'Cause I never see you out

Are you hiding from me, yeah?

Somewhere in the crowd

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Where have you been

All my life

All my life

Where have you been all my life

Where have you been all my life

Where have you been all my life

You can have me all you want

Any way, any day

Show me where you are tonight

Yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I've been everywhere, man

Someone who can please me

I've been everywhere

Looking for you, babe

Looking for you, babe

Searching for you, babe

Thank you.

Like I'm a DJ, I play all of her songs,

all the times.

It's like sometimes I even have to be,

"Sh*t, I just played Rihanna.

I can't play Rihanna one more time."

'Cause I'm super excited,

I'm like here by random,

but I feel like I'm a celebrity because I'm

treated like one, and it's amazing.

I'm enjoying it, it's quite

a rigorous schedule,

like, we've been at the airports.

I don't want to see another

airport for a long time to come.

But overall I think it's an opportunity

of a lifetime, it's one of those things

in your career that years later when

you're asked what have been the highlights,

this is definitely one of the things

that'll have top on my list.

Sweden is a bit of a break from

what we've just gone through...

gone through with this crazy,

like, LA, Mexico, Toronto,

and now we get to Sweden, we can breathe.

So I feel that everyone's really

just enjoying themselves, taking it all in.

Well, the after party is gonna have

to wait a minute, we've lost her clothes.

I've given her my t-shirts

out of my personal bag.

Tried to convince her,

but it's not working.

I found a dress in my backpack

that's too short.

It's not working, but we're trying.

I think we're wheels up

at 10 a.m. tomorrow,

so almost four a.m. and we

still haven't made the club.

We're trying to make the best of it, 777,

seven minutes of sleep,

seven hours of work.

And the clothes made it!

Let's not bullshit, yo.

Stockholm was dope.

I feel great about that.

It was awesome.

Now we drink.

Tonight, this is the first night

we actually get to spend the night

in the city, so there's a club

built into this venue.

We're gonna just walk down the stairs,

and party for like an hour or something,

and then go back home,

rest for a couple hours,

get on the plane, and next,

city number four, which will be Paris.

Pretty much after every show

we have an after party,

an after party to celebrate

the party of the show.

You now, it's a celebration

with your fans and the press,

and you don't normally get to do that.

The next day on the plane,

they were a little worn out,

they were a little tired.

I blame Jay for the world

of pain I'm now in.

Threw up twice on the bus.

The band was awesome, they were good to us.

Thank you, Chris Johnson.

Chris Dave is his name.

No, his name tag says...

They're obviously a little tipsy still

from the after party.

Feeling great today,

I had great fun last night.

Tequila, tequila for everybody,

and she was just like she was on the plane,

- handing them out to everybody...

- I feel great because I drank

a lot of water, so I'm not dehydrated.

Last night was amazing, It's

gon' be even better tonight.

We headin' to Paris,

lookin' forward to it, fo' sho'.

I don't deserve to be feeling

any where near as good as

I have been, I had five hours

sleep last night,

but because for this entire tour

I've had no sleep whatsoever

I think my body thought, "Five

hours, yes, this is heaven."

I'm a little tired, but we

makin' it happen four days in.

Today's a rough one, I'm tired.

It is day four

of Rihanna Plane.

Nobody has, been eaten alive.

We're here,

we are awake,

and we are on our way to Paris.

Rihanna had ideas about how

this was going to work.

Record company had their ideas.

We have to put the plan

into action to make sure

it was doable.

One thing... a dotted "I" or a crossed "t"

is missing on the manifest you have

to adapt to it, you have to be flexible,

you have to be nimble,

and yet safe and by the rules

and the pilots need their proper

rest and tens of thousands

of people apply for this job as

flight attendants,

and only the best get in,

you know, the number one pilot

in seniority in

the entire fleet of Delta is

the captain of our plane.

We're working with the best,

we were working with

the best management company already.

It's like a, you know,

it's like a rock and roll

jet set tour bus with wings.

It's been amazing, I don't think

it's ever been done.

We are so unapologetic

because you know what?

This is exciting, it's

a once-in-a-lifetime experience,

I'm so sorry that you missed

out, but next time you gotta

search harder, never,

ever stop chasing your dreams
