Kanye West & Drake join Rihanna for NBA All-Star performance (Video)

Sunday night Rihanna solicited the help of rappers Kanye West and Drake to perform with her during the halftime show at this years NBA All-Star game held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

The island beauty took to the stage to perform a medley of hits starting with the “Good Girl Gone Bad” single “Umbrella.” Accompanied by an orchestra, the redheaded siren entered the stage in a conservative black shorts suit paired with a white silk blouse and sang a mellow version of the uptempo track.

After a wardrobe change the “Loud” singer emerged in a short sexy black skirt and crystal corset to continue performing her medley of number one hits “Only Girl (In the World)” and “Rude Boy.” She gave a spunky and energetic performance of "Rude Boy" accompanied with several male dancers.

Next surprise guest Drake emerged from the crowd for the duos hit “What’s My Name?” The performance was full of chemistry, flirting, and teasing.  Since Sunday was Rihanna’s 23rd birthday, the Toronto artist switched the lyrics to wish her a happy birthday. The Barbados native ended the Caribbean flavored song with an island inspired dance.

 For the finale, Kanye West rose from the stage surrounded by a cloud of smoke, in front of a technicolor flashing backdrop, and wearing all red to contribute his verse in “All of the Lights.” The platinum selling entertainers delivered the newest singe from Ye’s latest album “My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy” a few days after the video was released.
