No, Katy does not receive the majority of that cash. In fact, you make more money when you have a 360 deal because you are paid upfront to tour instead of being paid a % of each show's gross. For example, before Gaga had her 360 deal, she made around $800k per show during TMB. Even though she was paid that, a lot of it still went back to paying LiveNation for paying for her show.
Now, instead of being paid per show and having to pay LiveNation back, she received a $100m check from LiveNation to tour with the BTWB, and once LiveNation makes its money back, she will also start receiving a portion of each show's gross.
Most of Katy's money comes from her single sales (because she's a writer/co-writer) and her produce endorsements. She won't start making a massive sum of money from her tours until she receives a deal, like a 360 deal.
I don't think that's off-topic since I'm talking about Gaga's tour.

she won while being unbothered in 2012 *giggles*
Not that she isn't successful every other year though. She just didn't do as much this year.
