During the tour, Rihanna visited Europe, North America, Oceania, Asia and Africa. It featured Rihanna presenting completely different styles than previously, such as wearing numerous leather outfits.[4] The Good Girl Gone Bad Tour sparked controversy in Malaysia where the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party recommended that Rihanna's concert tour should be banned due her provocative outfits.[5] A DVD, titled Good Girl Gone Bad Live was released on June 16, 2008.[6] It features the show from Evening News Arena in Manchester, England, held on December 6, 2007.[7]

Cole and Cee Lo Green were planned as support acts for the North American leg. However, Green left the tour citing schedule conflicts.[14] Calvin Harris was featured as an opening act on the European leg of the tour.[15] The tour was received positively by critics, who praised Rihanna's vocals and dance-moves.[16] It featured Rihanna giving a lap dance to fan that she chose from the audience, during the performance of "Skin".[13] According to Pollstar the tour grossed $90 million worldwide and became the 7th highest-grossing tour of 2011.[17] In 2008, Rihanna also performed a series of charity concerts titled A Girl's Night Out, to benefit the "Believe Foundation".[18] Rihanna's fifth concert tour, Diamonds World Tour was in support of her seventh studio album Unapologetic and became Rihanna's highest-grossing tour, surpassing her Loud tour in 2011.
