The problem is that the woman managing her only has experience managing D-list country acts with zero pop credentials to her name.

Lots of interesting information!

 

Her team did not expect the tour to become as successful as it did:

 

Spoiler

On the heels of her surprise performance at Coachella and her slot at Lollapalooza in 2024, Kesha and her team, which then consisted of CAA's Brian Manning and Crush Management's Bob McLynn, wanted to maximize her moment. They began to put together the "**** Out Tour," aiming mostly for amphitheaters and not expecting the run to completely blow out as it did. Kesha's last big run took place in 2018, an amphitheater tour with Macklemore. When her team began plotting this trek, they hoped to recreate the success of that tour. Instead, this became her biggest run to date.

The driving force behind the tour was a guy called Ryan McElrath, a Live Nation exec who died last year aged 49. The tour was supposed to honor his legacy:

Her manager at the time, Bob McLynn at Crush, and her agents, Brian Manning and Lindsey Myers at CAA, partnered with Live Nation and the late Ryan McElrath for "**** Out." Both McLynn and Manning emphasize how much faith McElrath had in the tour, and how unfortunate it was that he couldn't witness its success first-hand. As this story went to press, Kesha switched management to Mary Hilliard Harrington at Red Light Management.

 

"Ryan had such an enormous foundation of respect for her," Manning says. "He took this bet as much for myself and Crush as for Kesha. Following his passing, nobody was going to disrespect his legacy or intuition by not following through and knocking this out of the park."

 

Tara Traub, SVP of Global Touring at Live Nation, took on the mantle to ensure Kesha, her team, and Elrath's vision could be fulfilled. "Ryan really believed in Kesha and laid the foundation for this tour," she says. "She truly embodies female empowerment, fearless and unapologetic as she connects with massive audiences night after night. Launching her biggest tour yet with sold-out crowds at venues like Madison Square Garden and the Kia Forum is a true career milestone, and it's been inspiring to watch her bring this bold new era to life. We executed this tour in his honor, and I hope we've made him proud."

The first show of the tour boosted ticket sales:

"To see it all come together that first night at Salt Lake, that was just like, oh my God. I can't believe we went from where we were to where we are," McLynn says. "The sales started out decent, but didn't really pick up steam until that last month going into the tour. We started seeing sellouts, and when we first went on tour, we weren't sure that was going to be the case. After that first show in Salt Lake, we knew this was going to be a great tour."

It's awkward to see so many quotes by Crush in this article…it says she hadn't switched management yet by the time this story started being developed. I feel kinda sorry for them .

Sinners, K-Pop Demon Hunters and Wicked are 100% getting nominated. I fear Gaga's Dead Dance might snatch Diane's place.

Welp 

 

 

what a remix slay so hard

 

 

Not getting a remix album was such a missed opportunity - I hope we get that remix on Spotify!!

 

I have a feeling with how all the singles performed post-Joyride they probably decided it wasn't worth it to invest in drawing this era out.

I like Demi, but I couldn't disagree more .

I listened to demis album once, it's nothing to write home about. I don't feel gravitated to play it again

My favourite album by both Kesha and Demi is their second most recent one

Demi's music after Tell Me You Love Me just hasn't clicked with me sadly, meanwhile PeriodT remains my favorite album of the year

I think I prefer Demi's album just because it's more sonically cohesive, but Period has higher highs. But I'm ******* happy both released best albums this year
