Katy Perry is making bank!

After watching her management team give Disney belle Selena Gomez the boot, Perry has learned that the North American leg of her ‘Prismatic Tour’ has pulled in $31 million, generated since the June of this year.

Facts and figures below…

 

Dates fulfilled in four cities are to thank for the amount the tour has generated thus far, with performances put on in Chicago‘s United Centre on August 7th and 8th  handing the Pop star $3.3 million.

However, it was her shows at Philadelphia’s Wells Fargo Centre that moved the most tickets, helping to bring total ticket sales to the $50 million mark, brought in from almost 500,000 tickets sold for 33 different concerts.

With these figures, Perry now sits atop Billboard‘s weekly Hot Tours tally, surpassing efforts made by One Direction‘s ‘Where We Are’ live show and Kanye West‘s ‘Yeezus’ showing this week.

      Incorrect facts. Diamonds World Tour Grossed $137,982,530. The Monster tour grossed $80,000,000 with only 6 shows with the exact same set list. #ImNotHatinImJustTellingYou #CheckYouFacts #AintNoMediocre

      • Rihboy September 22, 2014

        Okkkk! Lls she really tried it^^^^! Monster tour grossed more with 6 shows kiiiiiii.

      • FAF September 22, 2014

        These are just north american numbers^

  4. Beysus September 22, 2014

    HAA!!! That’s nearly like a third of OTR!!!! LOL!!!! *sips tea*

    • XYZ September 22, 2014

      So what? It’s still more than we’ll (including you) ever make… Or is beyonce’s money your money? I’m so tired of all these b****** here acting as if their faves accolades are theirs…get your own life, goddammit!

      • Beysus September 22, 2014

        Um we helped them get those accolades so we are partly responsible… And I’m just stating facts FGS!!!

  5. CherylSoldierr September 22, 2014

    Death!!

  6. Valerie September 22, 2014

    Im surprised you posted this and not On The Run Tour slayage.
    I mean, no ones surprised they slayed but just to make the haters seethe a little bit more.

  7. Flawless Yonce September 22, 2014

    SCREAMING!!!!!! I CAN’T WITH THESE SINGLES ARTIST.

  8. Flawless Yonce September 22, 2014

    I thought she was the biggest popstar in the world?

    • Fine Ass Lou September 23, 2014

      She’s the biggest SINGLES ARTIST in the world. She hardly sold out any of her shows. And her shows are really boring. I was at the two prismatic shows she did in Washington DC. The arena was like half full and she sang slow songs for like an hour. Definitely a snooze fest.

  9. CherylSoldierr September 22, 2014

    When are yall posting the monster tour tea?

  10. Skyfall September 22, 2014

    Ok but will it gross 100m+

    Gag gag > Kunty Payloa

    • Arua September 22, 2014

      I’m sure it will, she has yet to take the tour world wide.

  11. MariahIsMusic1 September 22, 2014

    Didn’t Beyoncé gross more?? Just being nosy

    • Sass September 22, 2014

      Obviously.

  12. Stephy September 22, 2014

    Congrats Katy Perry!

  13. MariahIsMusic1 September 22, 2014

    She’s not a touring Act yet. Great numbers tho, personally I would never spend my coins on her tho even if she was the last touring musician.

  14. Sass September 22, 2014

    Ok. It’s not bad.

  15. Antonio September 22, 2014

    the BeyHive is really stupid. It clearly says “North American leg”. $31 mil from 33 dates is a 98% sell out rate, which means she was grossing roughly 1 mil per city which is huge for any artist, not to mention, her ticket prices are on average $150 compared to Beyoncé who charges upwards to $300 for some tickets. Just wait until she hits Europe, Asia, Australia and South America and does a 2nd North American leg… She’ll top $150 mil at least. Congrats Katy

    • Skyfall September 22, 2014

      It’s average her shows across seas didn’t sell like in the us. So she’ll probably gross $80-90 at most but we shall see

    • Sass September 22, 2014

      Lol @ £150 million.

    • SURPRISE……(DEC.13) September 22, 2014

      She already went to the uk, an d sale were kinda tragic for someone lyk her, i mean even jay-z sold OUT more dates at the 02 ARENA. She is not yet a touring artist, maybe in her next era…MAYBE.
      P.S SHE IS NOT GOOD LIVE, SO I WON’T BE SPENDING MY COINS ON HER…LOL

  16. MariahIsMusic1 September 22, 2014

    Mariah Carey is also touring next year really excited.

    • SURPRISE……(DEC.13) September 22, 2014

      It’s kinda sad Mariah, did not establish herself as a touring artist when she was younger. I mean Look at GRANDMADONNA, she is not selling any albums but her old ass still get coins from touring

      • Stephy September 22, 2014

        Mariah Carey has to hit notes to high to do live. Madonna is just smoke N mirrors.

      • SURPRISE……(DEC.13) September 22, 2014

        Yeah i know she is, but at least she can fill up stadiums and make over 400 million dollars.. I’m not a stan for GRANDMADONNA, but dat old b**** sure can make money..Something just tells me Mariah does not have the stamina to do like 100 shows..

      • Stephy September 22, 2014

        No its not that! Mariah’s SONGS are TOO demanding to do live night after night. She has to hit notes wayyyyyyyy to high. It would’ve destroyed her voice back in 1994 if she did 100 shows WHISTLING & BELTING night after night.

        Madonna just lips most of the song & dances. All she does is dances for like 1 hour & lips & the production does the rest. Where as Mariah is ALL ABOUT VOICE.

      • JOHNVIDAL September 23, 2014

        You are absolutely spot on with that one @Stephy

      • Brian310 September 23, 2014

        Mariah could have done a few shows live and did some backtrack on the rest of the tours her team just wasn’t smart enough to establish her when she was the queen of the industry.

  17. SURPRISE……(DEC.13) September 22, 2014

    Her numbers are basic as f***!!!!!! She is not a touring artist yet, but she might get there one day, she’s not gonna reach 200 million dollars, she’s not yet on Bey’s level yet, but she might do 120-150 million tops. No way is she getting my coins tho, she is a terrible performer live..LOL

  18. Overdose September 22, 2014

    I’ll scream if she outgrosses Riherpes. How is Gaga Tour doing?

    • SURPRISE……(DEC.13) September 22, 2014

      CURIOUS: WHEN WILL CIFLOPRA GOING TO GO ON AN ARENA TOUR, NOT JUST ONLY IN THE US??????
      U are so worried about gaga’s tour, when ur fave can’t even fill up an EMPTY PUB…..
      Go worry about CI37KINAWEEK finding a proper baby daddy for future jr, cause lord knows she need money badly..LOL

    • LB September 22, 2014

      Did Ciara make it to court concerning her subpoena?

      • SURPRISE……(DEC.13) September 22, 2014

        I don’t think she did, She had a fight with one of FUTURE’S 10 BABY MAMA’S. Dey beat her ass up really badly, even her MATRIX move could not help her, SO SHE MISSED HER DATE, i think she is going next week tho…..Sincerely, CIFLOPRA “UNPAID” ASSISSTANT…lol

    • Mimi Carey September 22, 2014

      When will C-Error headline her own tour? B**** been in the game ten years and is still opening act status 🙁

    • Rosie September 22, 2014

      What about Ciara’s TGI Fridays dining room tour from last year? What happened to that?

    • Amy September 22, 2014

      Why do you and other Zzzziara stans feel like y’all can come for other artists? How’d that motel 6 poolside tour with Jason Derulo go? Did they leave the light on for you??

      • Brian310 September 23, 2014

        DEATH

  19. There once was a pimp and his h**…. September 22, 2014

    Basic as usual.
    #That is all

  20. LB September 22, 2014

    The acts were saying North America is her biggest market in terms of touring, one would have expected some U2 type numbers with the amount of hyping the Kats did. Instead, these are average numbers of any pop star out today.

    Sigh, who makes up her audience at this tour anyway besides 12 year old’s and low self esteem bottoms.

    • SURPRISE……(DEC.13) September 22, 2014

      Death!!!!! As much as i hate u, dat was funny..”12 YEAR OLD LOWER BOTTOMS”. Even those aren’t going to CIWEARHOUSE’S show.LOL

  21. Mingxxx September 22, 2014

    copycat thief beyonce had to steal images and costumes from JLOs world tour to dupe people for her tour. i dont think katie did any ripping and stealing to sell tickets.

    • Rosie September 22, 2014

      Yet J Ho’s (only!) solo tour didn’t gross a third of OTR. Stay mad bitter f*****.

      • SURPRISE……(DEC.13) September 22, 2014

        KATIE DID NOT DO ANY STEALING??? DAT’S NOT WHAT GAGA SAID ON TWITTER…”MECHANICAL HORSE” RING A BELL.
        U ARE SO PRESSED WITH BEY AND YET UR FAVE STILL REMAINS A MOTHERFUCKING NON-FACTOR…..
        KEEP SEETHING DAT WILL NOT TAKE U ANYWHERE..JHO HAD D SAME MUSICAL DIRECTOR AS J-LO ( KIM BURSE) FOR HER TOUR, NOW SUCK ON DAT H**.

      • Rosie September 22, 2014

        Is this to me? I was dragging Fagxxx’s bitter ass.

  22. Rosie September 22, 2014

    Not even a fan but how is this tour flopping when:
    •The leg isn’t even finished
    •It’s on track to be one of the biggest female tours of all time as of this leg

    Anyways, kings of indie/alternative alt-J(esus) went #1 on iTunes US with an interlude? What kind of slayage out of nowhere? Another album track went #2 at the same time. I think their album might debut in the top 3 there, really proud.

    • LB September 22, 2014

      What about those 1k-sized town halls that lana was performing in? Do you think she’ll be downsizing seeing as UV has yet to see a certification?

      • Rosie September 22, 2014

        You should be worried about Leona instead. When was the last time she toured? 2007? Can she fill up a horse stable these days?

      • LB September 22, 2014

        Hold on. Is is true that your botox, Xanax addicted fave is performing at cemeteries now? I’m screaming!!!!!

      • LB (The real one) September 22, 2014

        Well that was funny whoever catfished me but no, that wasn’t me Hosie, you should know better. But that was funny non the less.

  23. LB September 22, 2014

    But leona can actually sing, chart singles and work a stage unlike your flop fave. I’m still waiting for an answer to my question by the way. Will lana be downsizing her community centers? I know that European tour got canceled. Kiiii

  24. Metzo September 22, 2014

    Not bad. Congrats to her.
    And for those mentioning beyonce, she did 95M on the 19 shows of the American leg alone.

  25. Mark111 September 22, 2014

    Post Ciara’s Parking Lot Tour numbers.

  26. LB (The real one) September 22, 2014

    I CAN’T!!!!!

    Sam you need to fix this, I want people to know that when I drag them, it is actually me doing the dragging and not someone impersonating me.

  27. JOHNVIDAL September 23, 2014

    Katy Perry is so damn basic on every front. The music, her voice, her image, her live performances (well, what she tries to do when she has to perform I mean, including faking she can play the flute LOL),…
    It´s just, I don´t know, sad that many mediocre or just bad singers/artists have a place in nowadays mainstream industry.

  28. Slayty Perry (Prismatic World Tour) September 23, 2014

    But wasn’t Skyfall preaching this tour was flopping? I provided receipts that proved otherwise but the pressed soul still proclaimed. What now? The receipts are coming out and it turns out I was right. Katy Perry, the current Queen of Pop, is scalping with this tour. $31 million off the North American leg alone (reading is key Beyfoons). The best part is that the North American leg isn’t done yet. She has several more shows left in the US plus four shows in Mexico. She’ll do over $40 million from the US alone. Monsters need not try throwing shade, Katy scalped Gaga on the charts, in single sales, awards, album sales, and now touring. I see why the Beyfoons are worried. Prism has launched bigger hits then Beyonce and overall sold more records, but Beyonce has stalled at 3.4 million worldwide while Prism is still selling steady and closing in on a less then 200k gap in worldwide sales. You can underestimate Slayty Perry but the numbers don’t lie.
