How's this for a collision of pop superstars: Rihanna is coming to Target Center on June 16, the night after Taylor Swift finishes her two-night sold-out engagement in St. Paul.
Rihanna, 23, the Barbados-bred superstar, has chalked up seven No. 1 singles, most recently "What's My Name" and "Only Girl (in the World)."
She has won three Grammys, including one this year for best dance recording.
Tickets to Rihanna's Loud Tour, priced from $21.75 to $101.75, will go on sale at 10 a.m. Saturday at Target Center's box office, Ticketmaster and livenation.com.
