So what I gather Taylor did $10 mill pre sales and Bey will do around $7mill after making an announcement at 2am and disappeared? A slay. 

Taylor did 37 M and Beyoncé 7 M, not need to quit 27 M to Taylor

You expected ATRLer's to read?

[Taylor fanboy]

Amazing ticket sales, P!nk next!

[Kh-Loud]

We are not surprised!!

I mean duh. Imagine Taylor’s presale numbers with $28 tickets. 

[State of Grace.]

Beyoncé is still gonna open with like $40M-$60M and those are incredible numbers.

 

Not everyone has to be on Taylor's level to be successful. She's not the standard and she's miles above everyone else.

i think it's because beyonce fans actaully work and have hobbies and things to do after work. When I was a kid and teenager I could go to cinema everyday

I am not here for the Beyoncé slander because those are solid numbers for a concert film. Taylor is just an anomaly. 

 

But we're talking about booking a movie night 2 months ahead. I don't believe any job could prevent you from doing that (unless your working hours are at night). That drag is as lame as it gets.

Also working provides disposable income to do other things... like seeing a movie  Either way the argument is dumb just like this thread.

[flashfox]

Amazing numbers for Beyonce a living legend indeed

 

 

[Aethereal]

7 to 1 is actually good for Beyonce depending on longevity, because Taylor is doing astronomical numbers.  The movie's budget is around 10M. 

[carameldelight]

Meh, I think overall Beyonce will do just fine. 

 

obsessive fanbases like swifties and biebers always do well. If she can get close to MJ's numbers for total gross that would be amazing. 

 

1. Justin Bieber: Never Say Never (2011): $73,013,910
2. This Is It (Michael Jackson) (2009): $72,091,016
3. Hannah Montana and Miley Cyrus: Best of Both Worlds Concert (2008): $65,281,781
4. One Direction: This Is Us (2013): $28,873,374
5. Part of Me (Katy Perry) (2012): $25,326,071
6. Jonas Brothers: The 3D Concert Experience (2009): $19,162,740
7. Madonna: Truth or Dare (1991): $15,012,935
8. Glee: The 3D Concert Movie (2011): $11,862,398
9. U2 (2008): $10,363,341
10. U2: Rattle and Hum (1988): $8,600,823

[Katamari]

damn ma  so messy  

[Blade Runner]

I mean, I love Bey but she's clearly falling into a trap that it won't end well for her from a PR perspective. Who would want to be compared to Taylor Swift right now? 

 

It'll end the discussions between the normies about who's more powerful. Like...

[UnusualBoy]

This is gonna be a long ass thread, I just know it.

Raise your hand if you’re shocked a Swiftie ran to make this thread!

heels as broken and calcium deficient as the way she moves on stage

[50thStateofMind]

no one, and I mean NO ONE expected Beyonce to outsell Taylor...

 

No one on this planet is outselling Taylor...she's the biggest pop star ON EARTH.

[Solaria]

Why is Taylor considered the standard of success? She’s the anomaly and the exception, her level of reach isn’t realistic for any other artist. Why are our faves constantly expected to outgross or match her numbers?

 

And if I even see one person respond to this ‘bEcAuSE beYhiVes trEaT hEr liKe a GoD’ **** off with that bullshit. That has not been true for for quite a while now, if anything Beyoncé’s most vocal haters on this website bring that up more than the Hive does

[kimberly]

why is this news? did anyone have any doubt about Taylor Swift selling much more?

 

more people are going to her tour, more people are buying her music, more people are having mental breakdowns over who she's dating. she is massively popular.

 

unless she makes a cameo praising Beyoncé during the Renaissance film, she should be irrelevant to the discussion.

[qurl]

i mean it’s YALL comparing a young woman at the peak of her career to another woman who is by her own admission a legacy act at this point (embarking on a “gratitude tour” , means she’s already proved what she’s had to) and i love Taylor but i have time today if y’all wanna act silly  

[qurl]

it’s also not really a competition when this is what you are competing against:

 

 

[Solaria]

Beyoncé vs Taylor has run it’s course, enough is enough already. If the mods were smart and wanted to keep this place more happy and civil they’d put a ban effective immediately on all discussions regarding their stan feud. Both sides have extremely rotten apples that cant support the other artist in any capacity and are ruining it for everyone else

Why is the public allowing Taylor to be unrivaled? We need more female artists at Taylor’s level.

Well I agree but that’s a discussion for another time 

[Dreajae]

Presale doesn't mean you can't buy a ticket after 1 day. Bey has 2 months and likely other things planned for promo.

 

Yall are weird and obsessive at this point. None of yalls "great white hopes" are stopping Bey from being a commercial force going on for 3 decades now.
