She, returning the favor, brought Jigga on stage for a performance of "Run This Town."

"This is history . . . for the first time ever," said RiRi before the Roc stars performed "Talk That Talk." Fans waved umbrellas as they continued with their number one hit "Umbrella."

"Hackney, they told me you lot are crazy but I did not expect it to be like this. You guys rock! You guys have made this show so memorable for me. I've been waiting so long for this show," she added near the end of her set.

A total of 100,000 fans were on hand for the popular Hackney Weekend.
