Rihanna Tumbles Onstage in Edmonton, Rocks Vancouver

Situated north of the border for her North American "Loud" tour, Rihanna has been busily churning out shows in Canada as of late.

The Barbadian beauty most recently took the stage in Vancouver, as she spent Friday night (June 24) treating the sold out crowd to an energetic performance at Rogers Arena - after which she closed out the gig by taking a shot of vodka and dropping the shot-glass to the audience.

A few days earlier, RiRi was busy doing her thing at Rexall Place in Edmonton, during which she suffered a minor hiccup as she took a tumble mid-song before hopping back to her feet and proceeding forth as if nothing ever happened.

Aside from her tour efforts, the "S&M" songstress is among the nominees with multiple bids at Sunday night's (June 26) 2011 BET Awards - as she's up for trophies for Best Female R&B Artist, Best Collaboration and Viewer's Choice.

Earlier this month (June 13), paparazzi caught up with Rihanna while at the F1 Grand Prix Race in Montreal, Canada.

The 23-year-old singer sported a more professional look than usual, as she was clad in a tweed blazer while chatting it up with Nicole Scherzinger's race-car driver beau, Lewis Hamilton.

Hamilton received a hug from RiRi after having crashed out of the Grand Prix thanks to a collision with his teammate, Jenson Button.

From there, Rihanna hopped in her black Escalade en route to meet up with her rapper friend/rumored new beau, Drake.

The two had been spotted the previous evening (June 12) as they left their hotel separately and proceeded to meet up at Buonanotte Restaurant.

And a few days prior to their dinner date, Rihanna brought Drake out onstage to sing a duet of their hit song "What's My Name?" and even let him sing a few of his own tunes.
