It was seven days, seven countries, one pop star – and a planeload of bemused and annoyed fans and journalists.

Rihanna's 777 Tour made headlines – not necessarily the good kind – last November when the pop star tackled a seven-day, seven-country tour to celebrate the release of her new album, Unapologetic. And Monday we get an inside peek into that bizarre, whirlwind week when FOX airs Rihanna 777, a documentary special. The week included shows in Mexico City, Toronto, Stockholm, Paris, Berlin, London and New York City.

The Barbados-born star, 25, invited 250 fans and journalists on her custom-designed VIP plane for the adventure, but as the week wore on it became clear the guests were not flying the friendly skies.
