"Ladies and gentlemen, for those of you who are easily frightened, we suggest you turn around right now. For those of you who can take it, we say: Welcome to the mad house," a pre-recorded greeting told fans at the show, according to MTV News.

In addition to "Mad House," Rihanna churned out a host of her new songs, including "Wait Your Turn" and "Russian Roulette."

I personally think that because of her bravery through the whole incident she deserved her award, so what she's a little awkward at times shes young hopefully she continues to growup and know wha
