Wow!, Madonna has actually made some actual news. No, not that she’s getting a divorce or running around Mexico with a baseball player or, that she is involved in some movie or children’s book or doing a cameo on a Britney Spears record; nothing like that.
Madonna has been out making some gedi. From Reuters via Billboard.
The 28 dates on Madonna’s just-concluded North American jaunt grossed about $91.5 million (60 million pounds) and moved about 550,000 tickets, according to tour producer Arthur Fogel, chairman of global music for Live Nation…
…Counting her European run, Madonna is at about $207.5 million in ticket sales and on a pace to hit about $282 million when the Mexico/South America leg of the tour wraps. That would make Sticky & Sweet the top-grossing tour ever by a female artist or solo artist.
Many, myself included, questioned the wisdom of Live Nation forking over vast amounts of up front dough on 360 deals especially for artists that were past the peak. This one with Madge has certainly paid off.
