Madonna Makes Herself Some Pocket Change
Filed under: Madonna > Music Minute > Business Blitz
After Her Madgesty's Sticky & Sweet Tour concludes its run in Brazil later this month, the eternal Material Girl is predicted to be positively rolling in it, setting records for the most moolah for both a female artist and a solo artist.
Congratulations!
After wrapping both the European and American legs of her tour, Madonna's already raked in $207.5 million in ticket sales alone.
In the end, our Patron Saint of Vogue is poised to gross 282 million buckaroos.
Bow down!!!

Re: Disturbed –
Yeah, but keep in mind, her tours are only around 3-4 months whereas most artists tours can go on for 1-2 years….if you compare the timeframe, she is the highest grossing artist for tours….you can't deny that!!!
Re: Cherry Bomb – MADONNA IS THE BOMB

EVERYTIME THAT MADONNA GOES ON TOUR EVERYBODY TURNS INSANE.THE TICKETS SOLD OUT IN MINUTES,AND STICKY AND SWEET TOUR IS A SUCESS CAUSE IS THE BIGGEST TOUR IN MONEY AND IN VIEWERS TOO.LOTS OF PEOPLE SAW MADONNA.CAUSE THEY LOVE HER.

noone can deny that madonna is the best

go madonna
Re: her madgesty – OK, OK, OK, I give in. You're right Madonna is the best.
madonna i love u.bets tour ever
Re: zarrafakt Hates Perez – see its better this way.she is the best face it
I don't like Chris Brown or Miley either but if you have EVER listened to Madonna ACTUALLY sing live she can't sing worth a damn.
well im out of here.good to her so good,and im going out partying .is 7pm in here.im going dinner and to the disco
and that is why she paid guy whatever he wanted…
.
she is filthy rich!
.
and she does this every time she tours…..!
.
She should thank her gays for that shit!
Considering her ticket prices, she should be rolling in it!
Re: her madgesty – mmmm…Nah, I was lying. Vadge is still an old hag who can't act and needs more plastic surgery to compete with the young things.
Re: zarrafakt Hates Perez – lol
Greedy little Monster. Now it's time for her to put her money where her mouth is: Let's see how much of this she gives to Africa…
Re: ShakeYourkitty – she doesnt need gays.her fans are not just gays.in europe are more hetero than gays.in america maybe but not in europe.she rocked europe and she does that everytime she goes on tour.its insane
yeah but that's probably before expenses. She can afford to throw Guy a bone with that kind of money.
madonna is one smart woman…not only does she have this incredible talent to be able to re-invent herself…over and over and over again…she has the marketing smarts of a baracuda. to invite Perez backstage to meet her and then zero in on him in the audience at her concert…she's made Perez her number one fan and media guru. Perez not only mentions her every day on his blog…but it's always so bloody positive. good for her!
SO THAT PROBABLY EXPLAINS THE RUSH DIVORCE FILING AT THE BEGINNING OF THE TOUR!!
.
THAT MONEY QUALIFIES AS COMING POST-SEPARATION.
Re: her madgesty –
.
.
HONEY IN EUROPE ALL THE STRAIGHTS IN QUOTES ARE AT LEAST BI
AND WILL LET YOU GIVE THEM A BJ.
.
OR SO LG HAS HEARD!
.
Thank you Perez for your support of Madonna she gets alot of shit from people!
282 million 6 months of work and the best stage performances!!!
People are just jealous of her fame and she is the best artist on the planet!
Keep on mind Live nation signed her to a 120 million contract and they are only getting 10 percent of her profits!
Also Live nation Is a Subsidiary of Clear Channel that banned her from Radio in 2003 during her American Life Error!
She earns every penny!
someone would have to pay me 100,000,000 for me to sit and be miserable at one of her concerts! who in the hell would pay to see her? unbelievable!
UGLY MOTHERFUCKER ? THAT'S WHO SHE IS THINKS SHE CAN RULE THE WORLD SHE SHOULD SPEND A FEW DAYS WITH THE TALIBAN I'M SURE THEY WOULD BEHEAD HER………………NICE THAT SHOULD SHUT HER UP.
Re: rickyluvsit – Hmmm very strange that so many people write comments against Madonna but that doesn't mean they are "haters" it means they are NOT taken in by her PR machine and actually believe that there are artists out there OTHER than Madonna that actaully WRITE their own music and do not lip-synch in their shows .. we are merely pointing out the TRUTH not hate .. some may put it less well than others but when you are faced with Shitney and the total LACK of reasoning of the arguments Shitney puts forward .. Madonna IS NOT an amazing person .. she is JUST a person ..we are ALL amazing .. she stole most of her music and her looks and her act from many she trampled on the way .. so we just say it how it is and I think you might be outnumbered erm .. 20% (madonna fans) : 80% (others with something to say other than arse licking the old hag) .. OK got that .. jolly good .. now get on with your life .. tsk
Re: SHITNEY – Why do you always bring up Britney like we all like her or something .. they are both just a miming pair of bitches at the end of the day .. get with it freakshow
BOW DOWN TO THE QUEEN BITCHES!!!! MADONNA'S CAKIN IT!!!!!
Sticky &Sweet!
MADONNA SAD GUY CHEAT ON HER SHE GOOD MOTHER SHE ICON SHE QUEEN SHE GOOD MOTHER SHE GOOD FRIEND ASSHOLES!!! SHE USE MONEY TO HELP THE WORLD, YOU JEALOUS PEREZ, EVERYBODY JEALOUS SHE MAKE MONEY. BUT SHE SAD GUY CHEAT ON HER, SHE QUEEN.
right madgerulla?
Re: Woowoo – I may be outnumbered out this site, but her packed stadiums outnumber the "haters' anytime.
Re: Anix69 – Smart: Yes! However, she will grow old and lonely because of her self-centeredness and inmaturity as a human. It's as though there is no mental or emotional development; only scenes to a play or chapters to a book. I look beyond the 're-invention' and 'image' she has created for no one else but herself.
Re: rickyluvsit – Money can't buy happiness!
Re: bloggerquest – Hey, bloggerquest! I thought you were Madgerulla/Mad4Her/Shitface! You are good…you are so, so good you actually write illiterate! Question: Are you impoverished, live in a shack, hardly have food to eat and sit hour after hour behind someone's computer bashing people that blog about MANdonna?
Re: Woowoo – Shitney is a disgrace to MANdonna! I can't believe her fans that blog here don't tell him to "shut up." Shitface is not rational, logical, reasonable or coherent in his writings. It amazes me there are people in the world that can't read or write; think or reason! And, all he can come up with is 'F' this and 'F' that to other bloggers. Shitface is a human disgrace, simply put.
Perez Hates Me ^^
SHUT UP HATERS, MADONNA IS THE QUEEN SHE SELL MILLIONS TICKETS SHE GOOD MOTHER SHE NEVER CHEAT GUY BUT GUY CHET HER SHE SAD , BUT SHE STILL DANCE EVERY NIGHT FOR 2 HOURS SHE QUEEN SHE MAKE MILLIONS HAPPY SHE EARN MORE MONEY THAN YOU HAHAHAA HATERS ASSHOLES!!
Right madgerulla?
See? Anyone can be the perfect mandonna fan! just be illiterate, it's really easy!
Kylie fans will go on a bitching rage no doubt.Their dwarf cannot hope to come close. Madonna may e 50 and pushing it but she makes Kylie ,the Botox queen sound like an amateur with her pititful nasal "singing"
Well is she is so cashed up how come she cant come to australia!? Maybe Christopher was right…. she is a tight arse!
Sorry Madge, I love you, but 15 years is too long!
Re: Phew!!! –
Phew The name Kylie (B!tch face minogue) doesn't even deserve to be in the same sentence as Madonna! Madonna is the goddess of pop & Kylie should just go stab heself with one of those botox needles of hers.
Re: Woowoo – Madonna DOES NOT MIME!! FACT… Brit Brit does!
Re: SeekTruth – Is it a HE! I always have this silly desperate girl's voice in my head when I read it's posts .. so DESPERATE and illogical! And why bring up Britney to compare against The Hag? It's like saying The Beatles are so much better than New Kids on the Block .. different audiance .. ooh why am I bothering trying to be logical!! It (Madgorilla, LaMadruga etc etc) no has about 4 or 5 logins .. it is a shame to the human race that someone is so deluded they cannot see through the smoke and mirrors of this world and understand underneath there is a lot of darknes .. I truly believe that The Hag is a very dark beast indeed .. always good to read your posts .. you manage to keep your head more than I do with the "portuguese mentalist"! .. Woo x x
Re: rickyluvsit – They may well do .. but they also only represent a small part of the world .. she is JUST A PERSON and not a very nice one at that .. sell out tours are achieved by many artists she aint all that and considering the comments on here The Hag is way past her sell by date .. he PR machine can whip up as much hype as they want which will sell tours .. but the general concensus seems to be that the public at large do not like this vile excuse for a human .. tho am not even sure she's human, I do have a theory that she is a mind controlled robot .. beep beep beep beep beep beep yeah!
Re: psycheX – Oooooooooooh YES SHE DOES!! ha ha .. no one can sing and dance for over 2 hours .. FACT! ha ha ha .. aah the smoke and mirrors fool you all .. you can achieve a lot with lip synching these days .. I know .. my bo is a sound engineer .. it's not like the old days .. lol .. yeah Britney mimes so what .. most "pop" acts MIME! And note Madonna's FAKE geetar playing too! It feedsback when she leaves the amp .. ha ha ha .. only Carlos Santana can do that .. blimey you are so easily fooled .. but when the smoke clears and the mirrors begin to crack you will see the truth behind them .. and then you will understand …
Re: SeekTruth – Add HER MADJESTY to that list too! Why so many log ins .. to PROVE how many people LOVE Madonna ?? what's coming to the world ha ha ha ha ha (manic laughter!)
Way to go! Nice job.
Madonna is an amazing artist who treats her fans terribly with outrageous ticket prices. Of course she made money, she socked it to her fans.
Re: Woowoo – NOoooo its not true… it cant be…. she never used to mime… you are breaking my heart woowoo…. just dont.

Re: psycheX – FACE THE TRUTH .. ha ha ha .. she DOES sing in some bits but a lot of is is backtapes .. she speaks live .. that's TRUE .. her voice also goes through some high tech modulators that keep it even .. so even if she IS singing LIVE it's so changed by the tech stuff it's actually only a bit of her voice .. it is physically impossible to do those dance routines and sing .. it's all PR and smoke and mirrors and it's a shame .. cos there are so many GOOD musicians .. REAL ones that could blow that woman away .. still that's pop music!
Re: eye luv perez – Your ignorant post sickens me. Please do something positive with yourself, like getting off the computer.
Re: Cherry Bomb – She doesn't make $200 million. Do you even have a single clue as to what it takes to put on a tour? Lighting, Wardrobe, Dancers, Band, Venue, Management, etsc…. There are many people that get paid off the total amount the tour grosses. Madonna will only take home a portion of the $200+ million the tour makes. Research people!!
Re: eye luv perez – Re: SureThere – Not sure why you are offended by what 'eye luv perez' has to say whether it is, in fact, researched or not?! I am surprised that you are not sickened or offended by what Madgerulla (also known as Shitney) has to say on her countless posts. You should save your comments for Madgerulla! Or, is it because Madgerulla is a Madonna fan and this makes it o.k.? Now, how pathetic is that!
Re: rickyluvsit – I don't think the point is that she raised prices, buy how ridiculous the prices have always been. I go to lots and lots of concerts but I think the most I've ever paid was ~$40. Actually, that's not including all day festivals [read: HFStival], which cost ~$60, but that's covering for 40 bands. On average I spent about $20 per ticket. I don't see what this fascination with theatrics is. I'd rather just see 5 people on stage making real music than 30 people dancing and 1 pretending they aren't singing over a recorded track.
