Queens of cancelling tour dates! Worst To Best

Featured Posts

Have you ever spent hundreds of dollars on a ticket to a tour, spent months anticipating, only to have the date cancelled by your favorite artist? It’s happened to the best of us and it made me curious, which pop girls serve the best attendance record?

I’ve calculated each "main" pop girl’s attendance record based on the number of shows they’ve done vs the amount they cancelled. The pop star had to have more than 200 tour dates for me to consider. Rescheduled dates do not count as cancellations and were included in the performed tour dates. Residencies were included.

UPDATE 8/31: 7 more of your faves (Pink, Shakira, Kylie, Avril, Shania, Selena, Cher) we’re added to the list thanks to suggestion & work from @StrawberryBlond

Kind of shook that Gaga has performed more dates than artists such as Madonna, Mariah, Rihanna, Beyonce etc... that have been around for much longer and by quite a bit in some cases.

No shade to Rihanna, but her tours are lowkey bad:awkney: She’s the bop queen but she'd be doing you a favor for cancelling her show:legend:

When you have ICONIC tours like the Formation World Tour, you don’t have time to be cancelling shows, only wig snatching. Ugh her TALENT. Her MIND

I forget how much Gaga tours, pretty impressive given her condition!

Mariah didn't tour for her first 2 albums because her voice would easily be tired since she did all those high notes and whistle notes in every show she did. When she began touring for her 3rd album she only did 6 shows. It wasn't up until her Charmbracelet tour when she started doing over 30+ shows

I really enjoyed the Anti tour even though everyone called it crap on here. She may not be a touring force but the energy in her crowd brings the concert to life.

Agreed, The audience and the atmosphere really make it a better a better experience.

I’m just saying based on vocals, production, and choreography she’s always been a little lackluster but her personality makes up for it!
