poll Best 2nd Peak?

[Tropez]

Meaning after their first phase of huge success usually during their debut or second album then a slow down or under performance then a huge resurgence. Not really a comeback, but a 2nd phase of their career.

 

Tours are iffy, some are under reported, as touring was not as important as it is today. I added inflation.

Gaga’s and Rihanna’s were the most memorable. 

[Kanes]

Rihanna

[Trent W]

Beyoncé’s 2nd peak was 2013-2018 and that was the best one imo

 

She never underperformed until 4. And she made a comeback after with ST.

[Jeremiah]

Um, the only one I’d call a re-peak here is Taylor but not even for those years

Britney and Bey. Ari's 2018 music onwards wasn't hitting that much for me

[Underdogs]

P!nk had the biggest female album, song and tour of 2013. Her second peak was arguably bigger than her first, so her.

[ParisxHilton]

Commercially Taylor Swift and Pink

[Soda Pop Queen]

What happened with TBE tour numbers? I swear it was fully reported at a 90M gross for years and then just up and disappeared.
