Janet Jackson's Ticket Sales…Weren't That Bad?

not-so-bad.jpg

So Live Nation is reporting to Billboard Magazine that ticket sales for Janet Jackson's Rock Witchu Tour weren't actually that bad.

While not all of the ticket sales have been reported, boxscores ranked at least in the top 30, with half of the four reported shows in the top 20. In Washington, D.C. the Rock Witchu show ranked its best at #11.

There are 7 other cities still to report.

So the Tour didn't really bomb.

What gives Miss Nasty?

      I knew it was not bad. I heard nothing but great reviews. It was just Perez hating nature to wish negatives on her.



    10. 10

      I've been on here all along saying her sales have been good.In fact she sold out almost half her shows.When i went to see her in Toronto she sold 10,500 out of a possible 11,250 which is 90% sold out!

    13. 13

      The rumor around town is she's pregnant. She found out in the middle of the tour and had to take some time off to consult doctors and make sure all was okay with the pregnancy. If docs had told her she was at risk, she would have had to cancel the whole tour. But all was fine, so she finished out the major city dates- and canceled the rest. I saw her in NYC last weekend and she was GREAT, but you could tell she was kind of taking it easy, not hitting the dance moves quite as hard as she normally would. Plus she's definitely thicker than she usually is on tour- which again leads one to believe the pregnancy rumors are true. AND the final clue: at the NYC show, when she was introducing the dancers, her best friend, dancer Gil, pulled his shirt down and stuck out his stomach jokingly, and she laughed and playfully admonished him. So I think that's the deal. She's pregnant and being 42 years old, she has to be careful. She's probably waiting til the end of the 1st trimester before announcing anything…

      I saw the show at Madison Square Garden (the last date) and the show was all sold save the 400 section. It was really fun and I have to say, it was the most diverse crowd of any show i've ever been to, and i've seen tons and tons of live shows. While Janet may not be making the best music of her career these days (thanks Jermaine Dupri), she can still throw a fun party on stage.



    16. 16

      What the God is this bitch wearing?



    17. 17

      TOLD U SO, PEREZ.

      HOW STUPID DO YOU FEEL???

      MEANWHILE, MADONNA IS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND IN THE TOP 20.

      SO WHO'S TOUR IS REALLY BOMBING HERE?



    18. 18

      HELL, MADONNA'S NOT EVEN IN THE TOP 10.

      WHY DON'T YOU REPORT THAT PEREZ?



    19. 19

      OK, that's the worst photoshoping ever! Why isn't she bleeding after having her waist cut off like that?!



    20. 20

      Time for a new stylist Janet.



    21. 21

      Re: NoahsArcMovieFan

      JANET WEIGHT HAS BEEN UP AND DOWN ALL HER LIFE.

      SHE IS NOT PREGNANT.

      IF SHE WAS PREGNANT, SHE WOULD HAVE NEVER WENT ON TOUR.

    31. 31

      She got fat again that's why she cancelled the tour. And this picture is from 2001, you know you have a more up to date pic than this.

      Re: BlK Marilyn I am with you on that one, there are too many haters out there and you can not hide the truth people just want to see Janet fail which I think is very sadistic these people needs to get a life and move on Janet is here to stay she is a talent and her name is already in music history. Hope she gets thru whatever she is going thru. When she is ready she should bring her tour overseas people out there still appreciate her and pleasee, Hayle0098
      who wants to hear about Shitney and Timberfake they are copy cats who have no originality at all did Shitney not copy all of Janet's dance moves????



    35. 35

      You slagged her off for poor ticket sales before you knew the facts - you didn't put a link to your previous posts about her tour bombing.

      You do this all the time.



    36. 36

      Re: haylie0988

      That comment really shows what a dumb bitch you are. Go back to school you cunt!

      Re: jennfer

      Jennfer, you need a man so you can get off Janet's jock! How old are you? Let's see what you look like sense you always got so much to say!



    38. 38

      Perez, this is one of the most responsible things I've seen you do in a very long time-admitting that you were an asshole and reported false information without getting the facts straight. Now ALL OF YOU UGLY HATERS THAT BASHED JANET CAN GO EAT A DICK!



    39. 39

      Re: sandrecito

      That's a old picture of Janet from 2001 you idiot!

      Re: mickey1814

      Mickey, I think that's why they are hating on her, because they couldn't afford to buy the tickets and they were stuck at home looking at Hanna Montana LOL



    41. 41

      I'm not really into her music but maybe she really was sick?
      It happens!



    42. 42

      I bet she's pregnant.



    43. 43

      I LOOOVED the tour. I think the promotion was bad. Vertigo didn't help either.



    44. 44

      Re: WHORE1 – You clearly didn't read my post correctly. She found out she was pregnant IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TOUR, you dumbass. That's why she cancelled shows. yes, her weight fluctuates, but she always loses it when she's working. Just look at every tour she's done. And she's not fat now…just not bone thin. Her ass looked AMAZING- impressive onion, lol. But she is pregnant. Insiders have confirmed. Expect an announcement in the coming weeks.



    45. 45

      I saw her Los Angeles show, and she was amazing! Yes, her current music sucks but she can still put on a heartstopping show, and actually the Staples Center was packed! I'm guessing she's pregnant.

      By the way, for all the Madonna fans out there, I saw her and she was fantastic! I wish she'd get rid of the guitar, but overall the show was enjoyable. Oh, and I got upgraded for free because they closed off the section I bought tickets for. I guess the bad economy is affecting even Madonna. But a great show!



    46. 46

      Re: caliboi822

      LMAO! Thanks Caliboi! You'll never hear Madonna's fans admit to that not will Perez ever report it…hehehe



    47. 47

      perez, you are such a stupid, wanna-be, jealous fucking idiot.
      ever stop to think that she really WAS sick??
      instead of putting bad gris-gris on her by saying her ticket sales sucked?
      shame on you, perez.
      your readers want the truth.



    48. 48

      Maybe she's pregnant!!



    49. 49

      i loooove janet, her show is hot!



    50. 50

      Duhhh… This is what we've been saying from the get go people. The show was awesome and fyi… The Staples Center show DID completely sell out. I think she was just ACTUALLY SICK. Why is that so hard for people to comprehend?



    51. 51

      DUHHHHHH……..SHE'S PREGNANT. Ha…..I figured it out!



    52. 52

      Perez stop kissing her ass. It bombed. DC is 65% African-American and she came in at No. 11 there! She needs to give it up and just retire.



    53. 53

      People, please. Remember sickness runs in my family. When things are not going well we get sick. When ticket sales are down we get sick. When PR is bad we get sick. When we're on trial for child molestation we get sick.
      When we're on trial for child molestation for the 2nd time we get sick—really sick. When a rich prince sues us for $7 million we get sick.
      I'm being sued right now by that rich and really evil prince and guess what? Yes, I'm sick. Depending on how things go I could get really sick,maybe even really,really sick if there are no more fools to rescue me, I just have to see how things go.
      I really could use a group shower with some boys right now!
