Don't forget in LIFE too because that's how people get their butt's whooped for saying the wrong thing.

Pre-sale were. So how could her tour be low demand? They weren't officially released yet.

It's not difficult to predict a lack of demand. The singles were flopping, the album wasn't getting stellar reviews (I think the tour was canceled before first week sales were in so that doesn't count), maybe they had issues finding sponsors for the show.

It was a dumb idea anyway. She needed to tour after the album. Plus she should have already been rehearsing if she was going to do this prior to the exclusive ticket sales with her fan pack pre-order. Not to mention that this is another Christina Aguilera will sell on her name alone idea from RCA and maybe X-Tina herself. Stupid, stupid. It's been too long and a flop gh to try to be doing this before Bionic got released and no hit singles for this era.

It was actually canceled weeks before the album came out, and she only released one single at the time. (Woohoo doesn't count as an "official" single.)

I agree. She's been gone a long time, times have changed, but xtina is still one of the best artists out there, and one flop album shouldn't change anyone's mind about her.
But I don't get why this even came up in Rihanna's thread. :/

HaHa it's funny how delusional are Xtina stans.. It's the fact that she cancelled tour because of low sales, go search on internet, i'm not going to waste my time, i read it in many places online: that many artists cancels their tours now, it's hard to sell tickets at this time, also one of the most popular groups ever (U2) did it.. Anyways Rihanna didn't cancelled all her shows, just few. None of her shows in Europe were cancelled, just few stadiums in America! Christina.. She had to cancelled all her shows because they're simple not selling (just like ,,Bionic'')..

Haven't you been told not to believe everything you read on the internet? Delusional, really? And quite frankly, I'm not an Xtina "stan." I don't stan for anyone, I simply enjoy their music. The tickets weren't even officially released, so there's no way it could be canceled because of "low sales." And besides, I don't even understand why there has to be comparisons, and all that ****. They're their own artist, they don't have to sell as well as any others, and just because they don't sell as much, does not mean they are any less of an artist. I am really getting sick and tired of people laughing at artists flops, and such. Does it make people feel better about their artist that someone isn't doing as well as them? And in the end, they're all doing better than the shittalker.
I don't even know why Xtina was needed to be mentioned in a thread about Rihanna's tour.

I don't believe everything i read, i think with my own head LoL  Why would Xtina cancel her shows if not for low sales?? Tour would be a great promotion for her new cd.. Her album is not selling well, i don't even know if it will sell 1 million! She took a long break, maybe many people aren't interested in her now as before. Xtina changed her style, sound ect.. I'm not a Xtina hater, i really like her music also like few songs from ,,Bionic'', but still prefer her old works. Btw: I didn't mentioned Xtina in this thread first..

I didn't mention her in it first either. She canceled them because she did not have to rehearse, (which is the reason she used, and she does not give me a reason not to believe it, so I do) and I wouldn't blame her and she also would have to stop touring in November to promote her new movie. Yes, not everyone is interested in her anymore, but that doesn't mean that everyone can go bashing her. I'm not a big fan of people doing that.

IKD.. This reason that she didn't had rehearse looks kinda stupid to me.. Why did she didn't had them?? She had many time last year. She started to recording ,,BIONIC'' IN 2008! Also that would be stupid of her to not do tour while album is not doing very well..

Can someone explain to me how this tour, starring international superstar Rihanna, is having sales troubles?!
It even has support from Ke$ha (although personally, the prospect of seeing her live would PREVENT me from buying a ticket).

Rated R wasn't that successful in the US. The Europe-leg almost sold out every show. They also chose R101 as the "sneak peek" of the Tour (Performed it in American Idol titled as the "Trailer" of the Tour). IMO, she should have performed Rude Boy since it was at its peak at that moment, it could've been great promo for both the song and the tour itself.

They probably thought, RB already hit #1, let's use this opportunity to turn her next single into a hit and have her perform that.
