So Gaga's tour was hugely successful in Asia and she will now also tour South Africa. Do you think more artists now will take a risk and tour Asian countries and other countries like South Africa as well? Or do other artists simply don't have the global power Gaga has and can't afford to take that risk?

Tell me ATRL.

No, other artists don't have the global appeal Gaga has and can't afford to take that risk

Yes, just like Beyoncé brought attention to Brazil.

Other artists have done this. Beyonce toured in Ethiopia twice.

Y'all are really trying it with these touring questions. Do you REALLY think that Britney, Rihanna and Beyonce couldn't tour other countries if they really wanted to?

I mean didn't Avril have a very successful tour in Asia?

Other artists can do it. Gaga is not paving the way for anyone.

The whole premise of this thread is false.

Why haven't they then?

Nope. The tour dates are based on demand, star power and album sales, it's not up to them to decide if they like the country or not.

Never said Gaga was the only one to pave the way. But can you show me the receipts for that? How much did she gross with her tour over there?

I mean, Gaga grossed 18 million in Japan alone

Avril was actually one of the exceptions at one point so that's a very bad example.

Yes, her sales from this will peak the interest of tour promoters. I'm sure it already has.

Rihanna is a worldwide star.. She easily could if she wanted. At least on a smaller scale.

I'm not even a Beyonce stan but she did a lot of places.

The Beyonce Experience

I Am...Tour

I guess Avril is just massive in Asia then!

Rihanna can barely sell tickets in countries where she has 11 number one singles. Beyonce doesn't have Gaga's global appeal. Britney stans were screaming about how Britney was going to slay her tour gross in South America but she didn't slay ****.

No, I don't think any of them could.

Lmao... gaga didnt pave the way for anyone

Michael Jackson already toured South Africa and bumble**** Asia back in the 90s.

the last option tbh

Wait but I thought South America loved Britney. I remember hearing that Brazil adored her. I wonder if she went there
