Lady Gaga‘s comeback is no ‘Perfect Illusion.’
For Mother Monster has over a ‘Million Reasons’ to be thankful. Over 70 million, to be exact.
Full story below…
Box office aggregate Pollstar have released their year-end totals, which has revealed that Gaga’s much praised ‘Joanne World Tour’ bested the competition to become the top grossing tour by a female in 2017.
Here’s how the numbers for the show, which kicked off in August, looks:
1. Lady Gaga – $75.6 Million (and counting)
2. Ariana Grande – $71 Million
3. Celine Dion – $63.3 Million
4. Adele – $59 Milliom
*********
It marks a major reversal of fortunes for for Gaga, whose last Pop arena trek – ‘The ARTPOP Ball’ – grossed $83 million from start to finish.
The total for the ‘Joanne’ jaunt is certain to soar as the weeks and months progress, as the trek still has more legs to go.
Go Gaga!
Even after super bowl hype? Beyoncè did way better? Even Anti tour which grossed 107 million did better and y’all called Anti tour a flop lol!
lmao reading is fundamental bug. this is just the american leg, she hasnt even started the international leg yet stupid. shes gonna outgross both rihanna and the bug so keep seething h0 lmao!!
Outgross the Formation tour? NOanne wishes.
Lol@ Anti grossing over 100 million.
Confirmed by Forbes sweetie 107 million gross when all dates were added
OMG Why does the navy keep referencing the estimate that Forbes gave in a blurb when there are OFFICIAL numbers from Pollstar? 41 in NA with a gross of 40 million. Gaga almost doubled her gross with less shows lolololol. Rihanna slays at many things. Touring is NOT one of them.

Your really pressed over her tour numbers Worldwide gross is 107 million it’s been confirmed by many sources hun and she didn’t put her tickets on sale right after the super bowl ! You can’t deny that the Super Bowl hype helped her and others aswell lol
If there are so many sources post them. Not the Forbes ‘Estimate’ but OFFICIAL tour receipts. Should be easy since there’s soooooo many supposedly.
And if Rihanna was a better performer she could book the SuperBowl but like I said, performing is NOT her thing, so she can’t. She makes bops and slays the fashion business but touring… she couldn’t even outgross Artrave. K bye!
Lol the Navy can’t read
They assume that the 1.7 million or whatever amount was mentioned she pulled in was tour gross but they were referring to the amount of money she makes per each stop meaning thats the Amoung the promoters pay her for each show.if you compare box scores for other shows with a bigger venue she grossed over 2 million somwhats the truth? The navy needs to admit that the empty tour was a flop and look forward to the next tour.
Honey didn’t Gaga pay to play the super bowl?! Lol Rihanna was not bothered I’m sure she has been offered and considered hun! But the ki is is Gaga needed the Super Bowl to gain some kind of relevance again! Rih on the other hand is far more relevant and her light has never dimmed! She also had way higher album sales and single sales ! Anti destroyed Joanne in sales and singles success by far! So you need to add music to the list of things Rih slays hun! She had a top 5 with no promo and no video Gaga could never!!!
Beyoncé grossed 100 million before the Formation tour even started LOL
Silly how could that be? Fake news
Chill she’s still on tour lol!
And that my friend is how you shut the haters up.
And they said she was over lol. Real talent can never be over.
I didn’t even know any of these women were even on tour. Oop!
She’s is the most iconic artist of this decade!
A very close 2nd to rihanna. Rihanna is the real icon and influencer of this generation.
Influencer music wise? How? What has she bought to the table? Anything new? No. Her team cooks the material for her and that´s pretty much it.
Rihanna is the pop pinnacle Of this generation face it no one has scored more number ones top tens or top fives then she has! Number one female streamed artist 3rd year in a row aswell I might add with Anti being the number one female artist of the year! Check Billboards end year charts hun Rihanna is a big inspiration of how these other girls want their careers to be ! Besides Mariah and Madonna no other female can hold a torch to her discography!
We are talking about influence. Rihanna has influenced no one. Which is normal since her “special” talent is nowhere to be seen. She´ll be nobody once she is over. Now Mariah carey has influenced with her singing generations for decades to come. That´s being special, unique and an artist. Having many #1 singles doesn´t matter on that front. It is true that mariah, in top of that (her talent), also has many #1s. Oh, and what´s more, album sales to match LMAO Seriously Rihanna is a joke that has barely sold over 10 million albums in America with 8 pfucking albums. She´s cute for singles. That´s what people use her for. End of story.
Your really going there hun? Rihanna has sold over 60 million records worldwide check chart masters ! She is the most pirated and highest selling digital artist of all time and the most steamed female! Soooo many artists have listed her as inspiration and she is praised and renowned throughout the world! You are a level 5 hater. Now she’s influencing the world with fashion and beauty everything she touches turns to gold Fenty Beauty is already iconic so please sit lol
LMAO omg Rihanna fans are nothing without the inflated statistics. Barely over 10 million albums in America with 8 albums out. Boom! 🙂
@john how many of my points did you just ignore ?! Lol you only have the same tired argument as where i have provided receipts she is light years ahead of Gaga that’s for sure in the sales department and is younger so please hun your shade and hate is tiresome
She’s slowly recovering, I’m curious about her next move.
won’t be bigger than Bey’s.
It doesn’t matter, she is 1000 times more talented than Beyoncé.
More talented then Bey?! Chile please
And it’s not even close, she’s a real musician unlike Beyoncé.
She definitely cannot ousting or our dance Bey on this planet or anywhere else for that matter and her lyrics are juvenile, has she even had a 90 metacritic or higher album score like Bey? I don’t think so! She can play instruments and her vocals are decent at best!
She’s musically speaking SUPERIOR to Beyoncé….Beyoncé is a better singer than John Lennon, does that make her more talented?
Gaga is good but she can hold a candle to bey when it comes to live performances. Madonna better watch out
*cant
lmao what da fuq is a bey??
lmao the roaches are STILL mad that gaga wiped both of that roach’s tired ass superbowl shows right out of existence? lmmfaoooooo
Gaga is way more talented and diverse when it comes to music in general than Beyonce. She is a musician. Beyonce has a better voice (not my cup of tea) and more stamina I guess too. But music wise? No contest. And the quality of the music they release is not even the only proof one can check so don´t start saying last Bey´ albums are more acclaimed. She didn´t have anything to do with the making of them. Well, she commanded her projects and chose what she wanted to do (that´s more than Rihanna definitely). But she didn´t make the music. Plain and simple.
Didn’t Mark Ronson and Redone literally make Gaga’s career and wrote all of her music she is not that talented in that department sorry ! Where as Bey wrote independent women and others! Gags music has not been that groundbreaking nor inventive Rihanna was doing already avant-garde before Gaga was even thought of ! See Disturbia and Rated R !
LMAO You literally are so delusional. It´s so easy to detect a real musician. Rihanna and Beyonce are not.
Can’t believe so many people went to see Ariana Grande. I guess they don’t mind her bad diction and pitch issues
I was in Atlanta on 11/28 with my daughter-in-law and my adult nieces for the show. It was an Electric performance – high energy and good vibes surrounded all of us! She was the Best!
She really made her era work against all odds. The hate campaign around Joanne´s release date was crazy. They are nowhere to be seen anymore of course. Where is that delusional Katy Perry fan who never missed a Gaga post? lol Of course he/she only lasted for so much, just like their basic pop star idol. Things usually end putting themselves on their place over time 🙂
Special mention to Celine Dion too. She keeps being there year after year since the 90s. Amazing for someone who was supposed to “only” be a vocalist, not a huge performer.
Fear not, Taylor’s new worldwide Stadium will eclipse all your fav in the upcoming year and more dates are being added as we speak due to an overwhelming demand. At the ripe age of 28, slaying album sales like no other and ruling the singles chart and we’ll dominating the tour and endorsements. Something Bey can’t even come close to. Where’s your Diamond album at??? #facts
Dang I was really hoping for Janet to be somewhere in the top. Still, Gaga still isn’t touching Madonna’s tour numbers.
Can we stop comparing artist numbers to other artist numbers? Beyonce ain’t everybody’s cup of tea (she’s not mine) and Gaga isn’t everyone’s cup of tea but to me she’s my idol. Everyone has different preferences. Not because I’m a Gaga fan but she is more diverse and talented than Beyonce. Even Rihanna is more diverse and edgier than B. The issue with bey is that she sticks to basics but if it ain’t broken why fix it?
Ya’ll are so annoying wanting to be comparing everybody to Bey like do ya’ll realize some of us , let me rephrase that .. a LOT of us don’t care for her. Her fans must make everything so annoying like shut up
Didn’t hear anything from the album so, if it works for her sure..
