Is that what's causing your blindness? 

@Xtina23, can you post the BLUE WAVE seat maps again for this extremely confused patient?

Why? Does that magically make those seats behind Taylor's stage that you're trying to convince us don't have people sitting in disappear?  Sounds like a side effect of those drugs.

The fact that you're trying to use this as a drag to defend your fav doing sub 30k per night in a stadium isn't the gag you think it is…

8 nights in a stadium and 220k tickets seems low

It's 5 nights for that particular 220k number.

 

The record is for 8 nights in total, which includes 3 nights at SoFi from Beyoncé's previous tour.

See…you didn't even read the title of the thread. Just came in here ready to be nasty and shady.

 

Sometimes idk if it's a matter of you "didn't" read or you COULDN'T read 

 

Sending you love regardless

@on the line, YOU went off-topic by accusing Lovett of doing drugs - you cannot report him for just volleying back to your dangerous assertion.

 

You got reported, you got warned - don't waste our time with this nonsense. Accept your points and try not to attack other posters.

Not you now trying to pretend she's doing less than 30k.

No, the seats that she has people sitting in, in that picture, which are located behind the stage, are most certainly "behind". But kii at you of all people talking about anyone else's intelligence.

 

Damn, I knew Taylor was money hungry but I didn't realise she cared so little for her fans like that.

She spends 90% of the time in the middle stage where they can see absolutely everything though, the stage is designed so ANY seat is fine

 

 

Now, if you want to talk about money hungry, some don't even bother to set up side screens for people in similar sections, while having to pay dynamic pricing for that particular section still 

 

   
 

You're pointing the finger in the wrong direction

So is the argument now that her seats behind the stage are good seats, or that they don't exist at all? I can't keep up with narratives.  Could someone ask the Swiftie prayer circle for me?

Congratulations to Beyonce for selling ~43,400 tickets per night in a stadium where other peers in the industry have sold ~70,000 per night 

 

Even with Renaissance she was able to sell 52k per night... I wonder what was different this time? 

 and I bet all nights were "sold out" according to her team

[Manne Quinn]

 

anyways!

Those are lateral/partial view in both cases. No one calls that behind the stage cause of there being literal sections of that, like her $15 tickets for the tour closing dates, P!nk's and Bey's "listening only" or what The Weeknd's entire tour has had on sale

You can slap whatever terminology you want on it, but those seats are factually behind the stage.  That's how she's cramming in people to sell more tickets. Meanwhile, you're making up numbers for Beyoncé and trying to claim she's doing less than 30k in the stadium.

I've never said she's doing less than 30k

 

Just poking the hypocrisy of calling Taylor money hungry, when Bey does the same and for a bigger price tag.

Apologies, there's so many Swifties in this Beyoncé achievement thread making up narratives, it's difficult to keep you all straight.

Insiders started saying that stadiums were booked up this summer a year ago. She didn't downgrade to arenas by choice, she just didn't sit on her album for half a decade before dropping it. Things usually move quickly for her in planning eras and the stadium tour she's more than capable of got away from her.

LOL always with the excuses.

 

y'all acting like she wasn't planning mayhem at all last year when disease and die with a smile both debuted in 2024. the era was being planned diva. that wasn't why she didn't book those stadiums

Sorry but when did Beyoncé sell behind the stage tickets? The greedy billionaire capitalist threads would never end. We already had one of them until Gaga did worse with dynamic pricing and then there magically wasn't a peep.

Oh please diva  

 

Gaga literally blinked and sold out Dodger Stadium in minutes, like be so serious. The only reason she didn't do a full stadium tour is because she didn't want to. She was giving arenas as a gift to the girls who stuck with her since The Fame. This ain't about demand, it's about intention. Meanwhile Beyoncé's tickets are probably being sold somewhere as a Groupon bundle. Beyoncé could NEVER pull Gaga's versatility, have a critically acclaimed movie or have a hit single in 2025. She's thinking five eras ahead while Beyonce is just following the masses. Gaga drops a single and Twitter crashes. Beyoncé drops a teaser and everyone's like "oh cute country". Mayhem at Coachella is the most acclaimed set ever. While in 2025 all Beyoncé is giving is some 'yee naw' and a mechanical bull. And with all the promo and Grammy payola, she still couldn't even sell out. Lmao, even Ticketmaster started praying to get rid of all the available nosebleeds. But doesn't surprise me at all, have you checked her Spotify streams? AOTY?  It was meant to revolutionise the industry, but NOBODY's streaming. It barely made anyone's playlist except for the ones titled 'background noise'. At this point Beyoncé should've called it 'Cowgirl Bye'. Because the girls moved on as soon as it got announced.

 

And let's not act like Beyoncé hasn't been chasing Gaga's film career since ASIB. What's the next move? Lion King 3? Gaga didn't need PR boxes mailed to influencers to move tickets. Gaga is the architect. Beyoncé is the decorator. So let's not with the excuses diva.

Quick recap on my part:

 

So you come into a thread that was set up to praise Beyonces achievements in L.A. and give us a dissertation on how you believe that Gaga is so much more than Bey by completely lying and creating false narratives. Ok.

Beyonce is suddenly not planning ahead WHILE she is in the middle of creating a decade-long multiverse and 3-Act-era. Sure.

When Gaga does arenas, its intentional, when Beyonce breaks stadium records, its questionable and laughable. Ok.

Gaga is the most versatile apparently while its Beyonce whos been the dominant figure in terms of genre fusions on her records, when SHE is THE one with distinct albums for distinct soundscapes that honor the genres and push them further. I see.

 

But I guess thats how it works on this site: You excuse your white artists for things they dont achieve and build them up to the highest of highs when they deliver, and with Black artists, you create narratives to diminish and belittle.
