Hmm, it's not an excuse. Gaga ended up selling out every GA ticket for the past artRave dates.

And those American dates are getting reported as sold out anyway. So I don't get what's funny about it

While Katy can not sell out and is grossing only 900k in EUROPE

So basically you have no idea what you're talking about and presenting the "its a rule in the states" as a fact?
Theres never an official amount of seats in GA, so depending on the size of the stage and how many tickets are sold any artist can say they sold out GA due to spacing, even if there is an entire half bowl left, which looks like what happened with Gaga.


And yeah, again Katys strongest market ISNT Europe, we're all aware.

Up from 1.4m for TWO O2 dates for the last tour. She may not have sold out but she's showing improvement from her last era.

Katy Perry is hugely popular in Europe. I know, I live here. Also, I don't think touring is the only thing that monsters can brag about when it comes to Gaga and Katy beacuse it's all subjective, really. That is only in my opinion, though.

I think Katy Perry is not a touring artist beacuse she's not a great performer, she never was, but I gotta give it to her that she's trying and working really hard to improve. And I have nothing but respect for her. She is a force to be reckoned with, I agree, however, in my humble opinion, the ration between her sales success and touring (in regards to her whole career) is really unimpressive and that is enough for me to claim that she's not a toruing artist, but that's just me and my personal opinion.

She may be big in Europe but compared to how popular she is elsewhere in the world is unmatched. In my opinion, these numbers are super impressive and considering shes on track to double her total gross from her last tour just proves how strong shes becoming.

I don't even know what Gaga has to do with this whole situation.
This is bad for Katy and would be bad for Gaga too.
It's not like if Gaga would pull 89% too, it will make Katy look better.

Katy is at her peak right now, so this pretty bad for her.

The bad press from her X Factor performance really had a big negative impact

But what is your basis for this comment?

89% is a lot better than certain other pop stars tours ...

I never said these numbers are not impressive. They are. I respect her. Good for her and her fans!

Preach, plus isnt this good for a "non-touring artist"

Well, if she would have pulled $400,000 gross this time again, like she did with her peak era (Teenage Dream, if you say so), that would have been literally DISASTROUS

Just take it as you want..

[lousaysthings]

Based on being at an O2 show, the London figures are going to be much more favourable.

[Boop]

Wow! That's bad

Can't wait for mama to come to Canada. Deff going to both Vancouver shows

Billboard will probably report it sold out anyway, especially if Live Nation are promoting. They do it to Gaga as much as they can get away with and multiple other peoples tours and since BB is the most credible receipt don't worry about it Kats!

Monsters need to maybe keep it cute, because some of Gagas US shows have definitely not been sold out and all it takes is one pollstar scan or even Billboard to report one show unsold and you're gonna have a mess on your hands
