It was back in 2005 when Rihanna’s first radio hit caught the world’s attention – although some thought she would be just another one-hit wonder.

Well, she sure showed them.

At last night’s VMAs, Rihanna received the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award. To honour that, she featured throughout the show with a medley of songs that have made her famous.

From club hits and party anthems, through a series of softer of songs that showed off her vocal ranges, she slayed.

You can watch three of her four performances below – and you can watch the bubblegum pink opening HERE.

Oh, and before we forget, Drake presented the award to her along with a little confession – and it’s beautiful.
