Rihanna closed this week's "Saturday Night Live" with a spare, elegant rendition of her new ballad "Stay," from the forthcoming album "Unapologetic."
Earlier in the show she played her huge hit "Diamonds," for which she premiered a new video a few days ago.
It was a busy week for the singer, who offered a preview of the new album in exchange for pledges to benefit Sandy victims at an event in New York on Friday.
