Yes, and I have a feeling it will easily outgross the BTWB easily.
It really sucks she aint going to Aus. She's been teasing a return there for the last 3-4 tours.
And the live nation excuse is SHIT. I dont think Nicki Minaj's tours are competition for Madonna. Like at all. And Coldplay and Red Hot Chilli Peppers audiences are not even Madge's target demo.
Basically I feel it's down to negotiations where either the promoter or the venue wanted more slice and it just fell off. Or she just doesnt wanna go. LOL LOL LOL.

Sorta. The Frank stuff no, but dragging the Crone (Madonna) isn't uncommon.

Who knows. Disappointing, as I've never seen her live and thought this might be a good opportunity.. And yeah the excuses are terrible. Sounds like it was a pretty sudden decision.

I don't think there's been one yet except 'We don't have anything to officially un-announce.' Weird. There was this, but sounds totally made up or exaggerated :

People would have no issue paying though, surely.

When is Sufjan Stevens going to come out? I mean, come on. He's like my perfect man.
He's pretty religious, isn't he? Maybe that explains the...wait.
Illinoise remains GREAT, though.

Precisely.
I meant in terms of it outgrossing the BTWB. Even though BTWB has taken HOW LONG to gross that much? If we were to extrapolate, it's obvious who will win.
Though I don't hate Madonna I think this is a bit shit of her. It's been TWENTY YEARS.
Madonna could probably charge whatever she wanted in Australia after the extensive wait; she could even cite the transportation costs as a reason for a price hike.
What's odd is how much she teases a return and then cancels it out of the blue. Why even bother riling up that poor isolated continent if she's not sure it's even going to happen; especially doing so three (or more?) times in a row.

She did it with Confessions and Stick and Sweet.
Confessions reason was because she needed to get back home for her children.
Sticky and Sweet was because of the GLOBAL FINANCIAL CRISIS #hmm
I agree it's not fair, especially to her more DIE HARD fans to announce that she's coming "after a long wait" AGAIN and then cancel it again. Even more disgusting if she'd booked the stadiums and then decided to pull out.
It's just a really shit move on her part - maybe because it was the end of the tour she decided she was getting too tired already? What else could be a PLAUSIBLE REASON tbh

I mean, if PRINCE can tour to Australia you would think someone like MADONNA could.
Prince can do a great many things others COULDN'T or SHOULDN'T do.
Sit your ass down, Acataphasia.
It seems us Pop-GAF elders made an EGREGIOUS mistake when creating a fun and welcoming environment in this thread, as it has given LESSOR FLOP posters the impression then can try coming for anyone they damn well PLEASE. It's time to start disciplining those who don't know their PLACE.
Janet's career is the best it's been in over a decade. Her top-grossing WORLDWIDE tour of her NUMBER ONE HITS will be resuming in the fall, due to UNPRECEDENTED demand. (Unlike some lesswhores she gets compared to, Janet WILL be gracing Australia with her presence). Meanwhile, Janet has been everywhere flaunting off her amazing body, a success story that has garnered NATIONAL attention. She's making a ton of money from her deal with Nutrisystem, and she teamed up with the company to create Nutribank, which provided $10 million in food to the poor this year. She's also been the face of the ultimate luxury brand, Blackglama, because NOBODY ELSE exudes as much CLASS as Miss Jackson herself. Last year, Janet released her first book, entitled "True You: A Journey to Finding and Loving Yourself", which was a NYT best seller.
Janet also recently starred in two movies, "Why Did I Get Married Too?" and "For Colored Girls", both of which saw her receiving great praise for her acting chops. Janet's Box Office Bankability prompted Lionsgate to secure a deal with her in which she would produce three movies for them. Recently, Janet announced the first movie will be a documentary, titled "Truth", about transgendered people in various parts of the world and their struggle for equality. More recently, Janet revealed that she has started the planning process for her next album, the eagerly anticipated follow-up to Discipline (2008). Finally, this summer, she will marry the man whose picture/bank account got you RULL MAD.
As always, you can STAY #PRESSEDT, because NONE of your faves will EVER be a LEGENDARY, MULTI-TALENTED, AWARD-WINNING, RECORD-HOLDING, WORLD FAMOUS QUEEN.

The general ideas I am getting is the production is good but Madge doesn't connect with the audience that well. She just PERFORMS and then LEAVES.
Also lol HEW is checking for Janet anymore.

I thought that was the point - small venues for an intimate show?
Well she played Rod Laver and the Opera House in the east, so not sure what the intention was?
That's 2300 more people than Madonna has performed to in Australia in the last 20 years though.

I see shade on the legendary Janet Jackson for being irrelevant yet I get attacked for Shitkira Shitkira?? can't deal.
You know, I have the same experience. What's that thing that Steve Jobs was supposed to have? The reality distortion field or something?
Icicle has that effect in his posts on Janet. He makes you believe the craziest things, if only while you're reading it.
Edit: Oh, and props for Acataphasia. That was excellent.
SOON
omg I can't wait fer her single so I can go back to stanning full time
these gaga videos in plug are making me anxious

I'm looking through some Munchi videos- for the uninitiated, this is where Azealia Banks' Esta Noche sample came from. I found a similarly TWERK-worthy song from M.I.A. that is apparently over a year old but new to me: Murder Sound VIP (feat. M.I.A.)

If Gaga wants to start making good music again; FAME ERA type music, I will jump back on.
