The videos are touching, poignant, but funny somehow, considering the meaning of the btw ball was just the opposite of what these videos are expressing. "This is not a funeral," she said.

Thanks for the update. Waiting for the rest of the boxscores to come out and cry for ever thinking it should've grossed 200 million if it weren't canceled.
POOR TICKETS SALES....TO COVER THE COST OF PRODUCTION !!!!
Quote:
Last week, Lady Gaga canceled the remaining dates of the North American wing of her Born This Way Ball tour, which has been crisscrossing the globe since April. Her announcement came with the news that she will require surgery for a hip injury that's resulted in a condition known as synovitis, which she first revealed upon postponing dates in Chicago, Detroit, and Hamilton, Ontario. Naturally the decision to nix the massive production has led to a great deal of discussion.
Most recently, Examiner.com has claimed that it was concert promoter Live Nation that actually called for the tour's demise because the dates were underselling. They shakily cite the fact that the cancelation news was in fact credited to the events organizer instead of Mother Monster herself, and quote "two reputable" but unidentified sources who suggest that Gaga is exaggerating her medical condition in order to curry public sympathy and distract from the truth.
Said one anon: "It wasn't that ticket sales were disastrous, but they weren't good enough to justify the huge production cost. I truly believe Lady Gaga is making her 'injury' out to be a lot worse than it is. This is definitely a cover-up." While the other unidentified source added: "They lost a lot of money on this tour, especially in South America. North American ticket sales were fine, but not nearly as well as expected. They had to give away a lot of tickets."
While there's no way to substantiate claims of a "cover-up," it's true that the Ball has hit a few hiccups. A show in Nice, France was moved to a smaller venue due to low ticket sales, while discounts and mass giveaways were reported in Columbia, Brazil, and...
Lady Gaga Has 'Bored' the Internet, Search Data Shows
As London search engine marketing agency AccuraCast notes, via Queerty, the Born This Way singer's online search popularity has fallen steadily since May 2011.
AccuraCast calls the decline "astonishing," considering that over the past year Gaga introduced her own fragrance, launched the Born This Way Ball tour, acknowledged suffering from an eating disorder, and otherwise kept her name in the headlines. In fact, search activity so close to where it was in 2008, before The Fame and The Fame Monster EP made Gaga, well, famous, might indicate the Internet is "bored" with the singer, according to the marketing firm.
And sure, that's possible. Then again, as Gaga's tour makes its way across North America and ARTPOP looms, complete with a planned suite of apps, the Mother Monster might, like the ones at the end of scary movies, rise again
And she's still creating more headlines with a flop tour than your fave's unsuccessful attempts of getting attention by flashing her nipples on stage. Try again.
