She got the parachute tho.
It's more impressive that someone with less years in the game could produce such numbers tho with 0 recycled choreo and I guess if eBey Stans wanna go there: less talent.
I highly doubt this is true, but even if it was, I don't see why it matters, and wish people would stop talking about it. Because Beyoncé is able to charge more and still fill stadiums with these 'inflated' prices, she's really fucking good at making money. And the point of a tour is to make money... isn't it?
Do you run into apple earnings threads and say that the reasons for their high profits are 'inflated product prices'?
Exactly, all it means is that people are willing to pay 10x more to see Beyoncé than Rihanna. Drag away, I guess?
I'm not here to defend Rihanus. I truly am not. But the reality is... Rihanna has more impact and sales power from her singles than Beyonce does with whole albums.

The lies aren't anywhere to be seen
This post is a huge fucking excuse.
End of the day: Beyoncé is able to offer a similar service and charge more than her peers. Her peers have the ability to charge the same as Beyoncé does, but choose not to. I wonder why.

At least Bey is still able to do her recycled choreo properly.
Oh but I thought we were talking about tour reciepts?
& what does it say about Rihanna's sales power if she can't translate those single sales to ticket sales?
eBey is only able to charge more because her Stans have money left over from an era that hasn't HAPPENED. I mean God knows she hasn't released anything for them to SPEND MONEY ON.
Right, everyone in the stadium was going to buy ten copies of the album
Wait, what?
Well, Rihanna has 100% sold out shows and Beyonce doesn't. You say it's an "excuse" as if Beyonce is above inflating her ticket prices. This is the same person who steals ideas and writing credits, is uneducated, and does other shady shit, yet we're supposed to believe her high ticket prices for old and recycled material is because she's worth more? Eh. That's fine with me, I guess. I'm not the one paying for dated shit. Neither are you...or any other beyhive members here for that matter.
But I do know a Rihanna stan here who paid for DWT tickets and enjoyed all the new material he got to see.
Rihanna has sold out 100% of her shows. x_x
Why not? There's clearly demand.
Why not what?
It's not about being 'above' inflating prices. It's not a moral issue, sis. Touring is a business. Beyoncé's team values a higher gross more than having each show being sold out.
Unfortunately for Rihanna, tour gross (MONEY) is a more important measurement for success than tickets sold/seats available.

This exists: Standing On the Sun (Reggae Mix)
Wait... how did they get the studio version of her rapping in that song?
What is this sorcery..?
Ok, but then why are you so bothered by this? Roy asked why Beyonce was grossing more money, and I told him exactly why.
Because its the official remix... For a song that's never coming out
If Rihanna's team knew they could raise the prices by like $50 and still get that 100% attendance rate, do you honestly believe they wouldn't do it? That they would let millions of dollars go just like that?

There is a reason Rih sold out all her concerts an eBey has not. If she raised the prices they wouldn't be sold out. Selling out shows there is demand. Not sure if this is the 2nd leg or not but they can increase prices on unannounced dates. Tho they probably won't do that. RIH's tour is sold out that's more impressive than eBey struggling to sell out American leg tickets
Ch.. Idek y'all should ask your fave >_> an official remix releasing means it was delaye and probably never coming.
If so, I think we'll see it at her next tour. By then she will have cemented her Legend of the Caribbean status and will be able to take the GP for their ENTIRE wallets.
I don't follow tour grossings as closely, but I do remember reading that tickets for Bey's last tour were dirt cheap, and since then she's only put out a single flop album. Clearly Bey's people gauged the success of Bey's shows and decided raising the price was a risk worth taking. I bet Rihanna's people have noticed Rihanna's selling power with all these sold out shows, and are already calculating how much to increase the price on her next tour.
Just like the Illuminati planned.
Most of them most likely never actually went to a eBey concert actually. I've seen it a lot in some eBey boards. A lot of the Stans haven't seen her live yet
So when that happens will we read about Rih's overinflated ticket prices or will we be treated to explanations of how Bey is a flop because Rih has caught up with her in ticket prices?
All the Beyonce shade while I was banned made me extra salty
Ellie is slaying on itunes and you're worried about Beyoka. mess

I can't imagine why anyone would expect this since nothing was released before the tour.
"Casuals" looking for nostalgia.
Grown Woman was being heavily promoted and I think there were even rumors coming from her camp that the song would be a single.
No no no, demand for new Beyoncé music was so high that the flood of fans desperate to hear a new song performed live crashed the website. If they'd have known there'd be no new music she would have been lucky to sell three tickets per show.

I don't want to rejoice too soon. I want another top 10 hit for Ellie ;_;
Doesn't add up. Ticket sales for the UK leg started in February (I don't know about any others), the Pepsi commercial was released in April. You tried though.
