It appears folk aren’t that interested in seeing Mariah Carey and Lionel Ritchie sing their hits all night long.
Full story below…
According to Page Six, the legendary duo haven’t had the best response to their recently announced US arena trek – which sets sail next month.
Word on the curb is that sales have been so slow that Ticketmaster is currently offering a two-for-one deal.
The site advertises the promotional price as a great Valentine’s Day gift, advising customers to “grab a ticket for you and your special someone … all for the price of one.”
This comes after the New Years Eve debacle, which saw the songbird thrown into disarray when her backing track did not kick in on live TV.
However, a rep for Carey denied this latest drama, saying:
“Mariah is working enthusiastically with Live Nation and Lionel’s team to put together an outstanding tour. Ticket sales are beyond great — fans are in for a real treat.”
Whatever the case, 2-for-1 sounds great to us; especially to see two superstars.
Mimi may have a broader problem with her brand and imaging, but we’re not sure it’s fair to put all the blame on her for this tour. After all, she is just opening.
