The Born This Way Ball, which will end in March 2013 after a 39-date leg in North America and after visiting every other continent, is on track to top $200 million in tickets sales out of a total of 119 dates; this will make Gaga the only female artist of her generation to have two tours topping that mark (The Monster Ball, which ended in May 2011, grossed over $227.4 million in 201 dates) and, arguably, one of the most successful female touring acts ever, just behind the veterans who tour stadiums every other summer, and rock bands such as Coldplay. Furthermore, her shows have also been met with a considerable amount of critical acclaim all around the world.

Does she deserve this success? Are her shows, and her performing skills worth it? Or do you think otherwise?

Worth every penny

I'll tell you in a month

Of course she is. Queen of touring tbh.

She must be worth it if she's grossing over $200 million with each tour.

Dead at the poll being 90% 'yes'. I thought this would have sparked some kind of debate but the young queen of touring apparently is so much of a great performer and her shows are so amazing for that to happen.
