Taylor, P!nk, Rihanna, Beyoncé: who will gross more?
TOUR QUEENS BATTLE
All of their tours are going to play a similar number of dates, and each one of them is playing stadiums and slaying the others in a selected continent (Taylor has North America; P!nk has Australia; Rihanna has Europe; Beyoncé has South America), while still selling out venues in the other ones. But which one will gross more when everything is said and done? And will they be able to outgross the other new tour queen, Lady Gaga, who grossed an estimated $185m from 98 dates with her Born This Way Ball between 2012 and 2013? RANK THESE FIVE GIRLS IN ORDER OF GROSS IF YOU WANT.
- The first half of Taylor's Red Tour North American leg has grossed almost $50 million from 33 dates, with some of the biggest stadiums not being played or reported yet: the whole leg is expected to gross a shattering $100m by the time it is completed. An extensive Australian stadium leg has been announced, but at the moment no other leg has been scheduled;
- P!nk's The Truth About Love first North American and European leg already generated a $60 million gross from 56 reported dates: with an even bigger second North American leg coming, and a massive 46-date stay in Australia, the whole tour is probably going to be the most extensive out of the four, with 139 dates being announced so far, and more expected to be added in 2014;
- Rihanna's Diamonds World Tour has grossed $32 million from her 31-date first North American leg, and is playing stadium shows throughout Europe and Africa, as well as having extensive arena legs planned for Australia, Asia and a second North American leg;
- Beyoncé's Mrs Carter Show World Tour has grossed $20,5 million from 14 reported dates (which included some of her biggest European venues), and has an extensive American leg planned, including four New York dates and stadiums in South America, along with a still-expanding Australian leg.
