george28 Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 Found this article this morning from the movienesguide.com site Despite reports of Madonna’s upcoming “Rebel Heart” tour underselling, it is actually making her very rich even by multi-millionaire Rockstar standards. Read on to find out how. She might be having troubles of the heart in her wooing of her destructive relationship with Sean Penn, but at least she has piles of money to comfort her. According to this NY Post article, Madonna’s 10th worldwide tour is underselling but the truth is far from it. Turns out, with this tour Madonna has become the artist with the most expensive tour, surpassing Fleetwood Mac in 2015. Her show in Las Vegas is the most expensive show ever sold, for a whopping $945. Her show in Paris actually sold out in 5 minutes. Aside from Edmonton and Turin, she is doing more shows in all three cities. She has even surpassed Taylor Swift’s “1989” World Tour by a margin $150 per ticket. Swift’s album, by the way, is this year’s third best-selling album. Don’t forget that this tour comes with bundled with sales from her album, also entitled “Rebel Heart.” The album topped charts in Canada, UK and Australia, debuting number 2 on Billboard top 200. The British are loving it so much it sold its competitors there by a ratio of 3:1 within a day of release. In fact, it has sold 650,000 copies worldwide.

Guest Rachelle of London Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 Rebel Heart didn't top the charts in the UK. Som Smeet overtook her the Friday he performed on Comic Relief
Apples388 Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 REBEL HEART is actually on its way to being certified 4x platinum here in the UK. I hear it may even outsell Music and Ray of Light???

Supernatural Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 They put her album sales total at "$250 million above" lol I think they mean 250 million copies not dollars.
Raider of the lost Ark Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 ... is making Madonna very very rich ... ? If someone is worth a 1 billion dollars that's already very very rich in my book. And underperforming? She is going to net 100 million + from this tour, she will be fine.
Supernatural Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 Madonna reads article; "Oh my God! I'm gonna be rich!"
Raf Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 This is so badly written They tried though, bless them... "There you have it for the latest news on Madonna and Sean Penn..."
Apples388 Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 Was this written by someone from DrownedMadonna after intensive English courses? #sorrynotsorry
Skin Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 They shorted Rebel Heart over 200,000 in sales. THE NERVE! Its sold 850,000 globally so far. Hmmph.
karbatal Posted September 5, 2015 Posted September 5, 2015 Surpasing Fleetwood Mac? What's this shit? Underselling? Like, she getting rich, as if it was the first time? Sean Penn? FUCK OFF
destiny06 Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 I'm pretty sure my 8 year old little girl has penned better shit than this.
mtzlplk Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 Worst article ever agree... it seems written by an 8-yr old....

rocknrolla Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 Maybe they knew what they were doing. Pricing the tickets high enough so the fans bought them directly themselves. Instead of just ending up on the secondary market with the prices jacked up anyway. So the tour ends up selling more slowly, but is still successful.

In order to make a profit the scalpers would have to charge an unrealistic amount on reselling sites. And I imagine only a few will go for those ridiculous prices. Meaning they have to slash the price and the ticket gets sold for near face value or even less.
Guest Rachelle of London Posted September 7, 2015 Posted September 7, 2015 That makes a lot of sense.
pourhomme80 Posted September 9, 2015 Posted September 9, 2015 terrible article overall with unverified information.
