As entertainment hot spots go, few are as prestigious or enduring as Las Vegas.
However, over the last decade, Sin City has experienced a transformation within itself.
Once deemed the desert where seasoned careers tread for their ultimate sunset, the strip was given a bolt of lightening when a succession of contemporary chart titans strutted onto the scene and shook things all the way up.
Celine Dion set the precedent with her 2002 residency ‘A New Day’ and again with her 2011 ‘Celine’ show – which is still going strong today (with a growing total gross of over $200 million).
In the years since, Vegas has welcomed the likes of Britney Spears (‘Piece Of Me’), Jennifer Lopez (‘All I Have’) and Mariah Carey (‘#1 To Infinity’).
More recently, Lady Gaga revealed that she’ll turning up the heat at the MGM Park Theater with her own show. The as yet untitled special sets sail at the end of the year.
With many tipping Mother Monster to deliver the best results yet, the names and numbers she’ll have to top have now been revealed.
Head below to find out who’s currently ruling the roost…
Per Betway, here’s how the diva stats stack up…
Celine Dion – The Colosseum – $229,086,433
Britney Spears – Planet Hollywood – $132,450,099
Jennifer Lopez – Planet Hollywood – $50,421,950
Mariah Carey – The Colosseum – $23,912,616
Of course, there are additional variables – such as number of shows, size of venue, and other acts (including non-musical).
Peep the chart below for the full scope…
Wherever Gaga ends up on latter incarnations of the list, one thing is a given – Las Vegas is hotter than ever!

I am happy Mariah stopped her residency at 50 shows. She’s in the studio focusing on music.
Was wondering how come JLO grossed more than Mariah but make sure sense that she had more shows
This chart makes about NO sense. celine has done Way more than 418 sows in 15 years…
Celine is well over 1,000 shows in total. I suppose they are talking about the residency she started in 2011. The first one (A new Day) was even much bigger.
Celine Dion is the absolute queen of Vegas and she will always be. Numbers wise nobody can top what she has done there. But especially because she changed what it meant to go there BY OWN decision when she was still selling albums like hot cakes.
Total queen.
A chart of hasbeens and Gags is joining them.
Slay Jenny… and Miss Celine Dion!
Who cares about Vegas these days? That dead town is on life support and these residencies only fatten the pockets of the older celebs but do nothing for the city itself. One of the most high unemployment, economically unstable, and high crime cities around.
Mariah’s total gross per shows prove yet again that less is more as she still is Top 3 in Revenue per show. ICONIC Darling!!
