7Days 7 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) Yes it was, you can go google it. FAIL: http://www.examiner.com/article/lady-gaga-starts-north-america-tour-with-tens-of-thousands-of-unsold-tickets not you posting examiner as a source when he's a madonna fan and hates Gaga. Look at his ARTPOP review. Edited November 14, 2013 by BabyJane Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikenyc 0 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 not you posting examiner as a source when he's a madonna fan and hates Gaga. Look at his ARTPOP review. I can't believe you just said that. YES, he doesn't like Gaga, but this isn't an opinion piece: it's a FACT THAT THERE WERE THOUSANDS OF UNSOLD TICKETS. He's simply reporting on the facts of what was going on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

She sold out in Australia 5 times and she hasn't had a Top 10 hit since TEOG here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we knew why: She started the tour SO LONG after she released the album that was FRONTLOADED with sales. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karl 2,885 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) Im starting to really hate being a part of the online Little Monsters community, it seems that the majority of fans would rather Gaga have mainstream success over a more creative and artistic product. Think of David Bowie or Grace Jones, their music never sold as much as Madonna or Michael Jackson but they are still remembered for their music, and are respected a lot more than the latter artists. I tend to find that what is the most popular with the GP is the least artistic and most basic, if you look at films, the most popular films are dumb action blockbusters made for profit, whereas the most artistic arthouse releases barely make any money at all, yet are so much better. If you're here for mainstream success over music you may as well go and stan for Katy or Miley, watching all of Gaga's recent interviews it has become so clear that she cares more about her artistry than how it does on the charts. Also, I dont know why you lot are worrying when her album is a good 20 places ahead of PRISM on the Amazon annual chart, she had 100k preorders and most of her sales are going to come from the physical copies considering she has tweeted about the foil cover and now the golden tickets. It seems that HDD isnt ALWAYS right in their predictions. So just relax and enjoy the music, if she does in fact sell 250-275k she will have pretty much equalled what Katy and Miley have done, who are considered much bigger stars in the mainstream population.

tsvet 661 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) yeah, I'm also kinda upset...tho I'v been expecting it. I mean like ARTPOP is perfect, but it took her 2 years just for an album... she better get her a** up and start touring and promoting it like crazy. tho with ARTPOP's predicted sales, I can't imagine an amazing and crazy WW tour Edited November 14, 2013 by tsvetislav Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrappy 302 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 (edited) I am so upset :cry: I am sorry Katy for making fun of you for being a singles artist because now you're more an albums artists than Gaga as well :cry: I still have my hopes that it could pass 300k though, they probably just gave a low prediction just in case? I can't at MDNA, Femme Fatale, Prism, Bangerz etc. all outselling this... this can't be real life, it must be a joke :cry: I don't even mind. What really pisses me off is that those albums have metascores similar to ARTPOP. Edited November 14, 2013 by scrappy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyaKara 2,272 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Everyone, relax. Just because ARTPOP isn't going as great as you all individually believed, you don't have to argue with one another. ARTPOP has only been out for 3 days, let it grow.

Oh and tell me how artistic is the telephone video continuation if it really is AURA. And keep telling me how artistic is to change single one week before release just because went #1 on iTunes everywhere. She surely know ONE THING. To hype us all. "I'm gonna conquer the world with ARTPOP." (LESS THAN ANY KATY OR MILEY) "With the APP you can do this and that and also that" (GIF CREATOR) "VMA's performance" and I can keep goin'. She want to do the artist all way long? I'M TOTALLY OK WITH THAT. TOTALLY FINE. So stop tweeting BUY APPLAUSE BUY ARTPOP BUY THIS BUY THAT!
