I mean, "interactive photo experience" implies a photo with the artist, no? It screams intentionally misleading to me

I doubt it was intentionally misleading. And no to me, it doesn’t imply a photo with her. Anytime i hear the word “interactive” nowadays i associate it with technology, or some kind of prop. When i seen the initial pictures of the backdrop with the mushroom, i thought that was the interactive photo experience itself . Now, if it was worded “experience a photo interaction” or “interaction including photos” i would think meeting her was in the cards.

I would have never read “interactive photo experience” and assumed i was meeting her. Maybe people should learn some reading comprehension before just spending 400$

i think its too open to interpretation, by interactive you could of have thought that there was going to be an actual interaction with the artist

Exactly, she completely lifted the entire Fossora album's aesthetic and theme, along with elements of Utopia and Vulnicura  and when I pointed this out her stans told me Björk is a "tired has-been" 

A tired has been? Girl  she can’t be that has been if your fav is jocking her ****  but also she is still ahead of the curve (less-so with fossora imo though it’s a lovely album, but Vulnicura and utopia? Girl).

still, you cant deny it was purposely misleading, otherwise they could of have put some kind of fine print, you know, like some kind of terms and conditions where it explicitly says you werent going to actually meet her in person

I think though that people should never spend that much money if they are unsure of what they were getting. Also, ik some people want to be surprised, but the tour has been going on long enough for them to see what they were getting. Videos if this interaction have been circulating for weeks. They should sell their tickets if they aren’t happy with it .

I mean, I could see this as a VIP experience, but not for 400$. I paid 120€ at the BTWBall for a VIP ticket that got me merch, a drink and photos with Gaga's Bad Romance ball that she wears on the MV.

Omggg that sounds like so much fun. 

I paid an insane amount for a group photo and 5 seconds with gaga. 2 fans who weren't hard core gave me their 5 seconds so I had 15 seconds, lol  that was in 2017 and it was high way robbery

Eh, I would never, ever, EVER anticipate an "interactive photo experience" that required a special ticket to not even involve the artist I bought tickets to go see

In my opinion, that can only be a M&G. So I would have been cussing someone out if I were in these fans' shoes

She could have at least included a Cry Baby perfume as part of the merch

it's because $400 for a photo sounds like she would at least be in the room

The nerve to call this AI. That is just a clip of her standing in front of a green screen and then turned into a tiktok filter

I understand that but i also feel like “interactive photo experience” is super vague and i would be sure before just buying it

[Sarah H 2,267]

It definitely is misleading and deliberately so. They know people wouldn't want to pay $400 for this

[phantasmas 7,862]

das too much $ for a a non-MPG to be asking for

Haha I totally relate to you, I paid an OBSENE amount to meet her at Enigma in Vegas and I am nowhere near wealthy. It was extremely quick, probably 15 seconds or shorter, and if I wasn't such a huge fan it wouldn't have been worth it. However my dream has been to meet her and have a picture with her for my entire life, so it was worth it for me as it was a once in a lifetime experience that I will remember forever!

My favorite part (besides meeting her) was the pre-show tour when we got to go on stage. It was surreal standing on her stage, seeing her view, and seeing how HUGE the props/screens look when you're on the stage. For almost a year after I was torn because I couldn't believe how much I spent, but looking back it was so worth it and I have no regrets 

Now for Melanie, yeah this is a HUGE no  even though "Interactive photo experience" may not imply a meet and great, I can totally see how people thought it did. They should have definitely had *interactive photo experience does not include a meet and great and photo with the artist* in the description...
