With her live webcast done and dusted, Nokia has now released an official Rihanna application on its Ovi Store.
The app is only available for a select few handsets though: the N97, X6 and 5800 XpressMusic.
It offers news, photos and videos to fans, as well as music samples and information on the singer's upcoming tourdates.
The app also links in with the Nokia Music Store, where fans can buy the star's latest album Rated R, including a bonus track and remix.
You can question these kinds of exclusive deals - it's a bit harsh on Rihanna fans who don't own one of those three Nokia handsets, just as U2's Blackberry app was harsh on U2 fans who didn't own a BlackBerry.

Even so, Nokia will be hoping the Rihanna app persuades more artists and record labels to launch apps on Ovi Store. Currently, the music industry appears to have iPhone tunnel-vision when it comes to apps.
