Everything was going so perfectly in Europe. I really think she should just do less shows in America when the world cares so much about her. European shows sold out in a minute...Mexico too. She could literally add 2 more shows in Mexico and they would end up selling out and she already has 5, lmao. 3 2
tiagol88 Posted January 26 Posted January 26 Just now, Jjang said: That is true. But again - why are we acting context blind? The touring industry has grown exponentially since and this is her greatest hits tour. By all means, all the cards were stacked in her favor to do much better. Even gross aside, RHT gathered an audience of 13,271 in DC in the same arena. Celebration's shows did an average of 11,002. Assuming the first show was sold out, that would mean there were at least 2,000 tickets available for the second show. And RHT was already making news even then for being her slowest-selling tour yet. So again, combine that with the fact that the touring industry is x10 bigger now - context. I'm not even saying she's doing bad in the US. For the "Queen of Pop,' those are good but pretty average numbers. Surely not remarkable at last. I did thought about context...as in, many of the shows you complain about, were already sold out before the tour was re-scheduled. Again you failed to mention that. That's why she has 6 shows in LA. That's also why she added 3 shows in Brooklyn, cause she couldn't schedule more than those 3 Madison Square Garden shows originally. 4
Alongoria13 Posted January 26 Posted January 26 The US should've been an afterthought for her after being so mean to her in the past 8 years or so, they only deserved one MSG show and that's it. 2 2
Elusive Chanteuse Posted January 26 Posted January 26 Naturally the box scores would be slanted negatively by someone who think she’s a Zionist lol 4 2 1

I agree, she should have served a Girlie Show and just do a measly 5 shows in the US 1
Chris Posted January 26 Posted January 26 Watch when Billboard posts her actual numbers certain people will accuse Billboard of lying. Watch. 2
Lover Posted January 26 Posted January 26 can't wait for the other girls doing these numbers when they're 65 4

Pink?(I know it's a stretch but she's from the area) Meek Mill? Joel Embiid? Bryce Harper? Jalen Hurts? Amber Rose? Lil Dicky? Jill Scott? Quest Love? The mayor of Philly up on stage with buck naked guys grinding on her, that’d be a great look. 1
Chris Posted January 26 Posted January 26 Before the rescheduling, the entire show was sold out actually. 4
Infatuation_Junkie Posted January 26 Posted January 26 As if y’all are arguing about Madonna’s success when she’s 65 and on a greatest hits tour. Thats the epitome of success. She’s madonna - not Ava max. 1
madollaqueen Posted January 26 Posted January 26 (edited) Naysayers will always find something to dismiss and cancel her. So no scratch. Whatever gays complain, This tour is already a great success. Sold out and great tour grosses in the cold hard winter. Despite all the drama of her health issue and rescheduling, the queen of pop came through with all glowing reviews. Such a triumph at 65. And for European grosses circulated first, people got panicked because those were wrong numbers. After billboard reported them, everything got fixed. So I will wait for it.

Jay07 Posted January 26 Posted January 26 Every day the same doom and gloom posts by the person who 24 hours earlier called her a senile hag. Ok, she's a flop and in decline. Can you leave us alone now? 3 2

It's a different world. But again, they are undoubtedly respectable numbers still. Oh puleeeeeese. She just toured one month for those seasonal feathers. But why did you not mention she only grossed 2.2 million in a msg show in the biggest city ??? That's a hideous number then. Madonna will be milking here a lot. For her la shows, she played only two. Madonna has six. And rescheduled. Don't even bring her. That's her most expensive tour. For me its quite laughable. Madonna has done those numbers years ago so many times with more shows.

madollaqueen Posted January 26 Posted January 26 (edited) Rumor has it that the glastonbury is confirmed according to an insider from other forum. Hopefully another European leg. Edited January 27 by madollaqueen 1
squishy Posted January 27 Posted January 27 The show last night was AMAZING! She looks great, the dancers were great, the lighting was great, the stage design was great. I LOVED Ray of Light and ***** I'm Madonna into a bit of Celebration was a great ending. I wasn't sure about Bob The Drag Queen's inclusion when it was first announced (it felt random to me) but in the end it really felt correct. The one thing is that I do wish her vocal was a little louder. 1

Maybe her voice was protected and careful or not feeling good.

She sounded great I think, but I felt like the music overpowered it at times. 9 minutes ago, madollaqueen said: Wasn't it sold out because one person is so pressed here and keep diminishing her success with this tour?

It's hard to say because people do leave their seats if they see any empty one lower down. But I'd say it was at the very least near capacity.
Chris Posted January 27 Posted January 27 People see one or two empty seats and try to make it a bigger issue than it is. I remember seeing this when the Swifties and Hive went at it when both of their favorites' tours were ongoing; both were making shady threads of alleged "empty seats". 1

I remember seeing this when the Swifties and Hive went at it when both of their favorites' tours were ongoing; both were making shady threads of alleged "empty seats". Exactly. It's a petty black and white judgment to make. Just because a seat is empty doesn't mean it wasn't bought. For the first acts of the show, the 6 or so seats next to me were empty. After some time, people saw they were empty and came from other seats to sit in them. For the last song, the people who actually had tickets for those seats, who were staying in a luxury box or whatever until then, came down because they wanted to see the finale up close and there was a bit of a moment between them (tbh it distracted me a bit I was kind of pissed omg). I can't speak for other dates, but the Philly show wasn't empty in the least. 1

Who could be better to live to tell by someone actually having been there to see it than just sit or lie down in bed at home to be pressed and throw unreliable shtty drama toward her successful shows? If he's to irritate everyone here, then he succeeded greatly. I mean he kept saying Philly show was gonna do very bad and etc. And listing other shows in the future as well. as if he was a fortune teller. Guess what?? He is wrong again. if you are that much concerned or thinking, why doesnt he go and buy expensive tickets to boost her sales then??? Instead he does nothing but complains or stirs negativity all day. is it that much bothering you because she's belting another success at 65 ??? At this point it seems that he's just here to troll and light a fire. Edited January 27 by madollaqueen
