These were posted on kellyrowland.com ages ago!
AM HAPPY FOR KELLY GERMANY LOVES YOU
Dangit, Kelly’s not coming to Texas. I guess I’ll catch her on the next one.
I love her new album! Great for you Kelly, promote and sell your music. I love all my DC ladies and have bought all their projects. Great music from great ladies. I’m a Bey fan that has never bragged about sales, or throw shade at others, to Bey(or my other ladies in DC) look better.
So don’t shade, these girls because I’m a fan. I think they are all gifted, and will prosper, in this fickle business, for a long time to come.
Quality>>>>>> sales
Any day of the week! That’s my view….
Much love Kelly, stay on your grind 🙂
ATL here I come !!! The haters always gotta post first ……. No Worries the video is coming real soon !!!!
No Cali? WTF?
#make
I only shade when, when stans build up their stans, and s*** on my faves achievements. Or when, artists are clearly out of line/ acting crazy… That is all…
EXCELLENT! I was wondering what the “ticket hold up” was all about? Great, I am so excited to see this show. Kelly better bring the DC energy and song selections with her. If Bey can sing the DC catelog this chick better pick out a few classics to perform as well!! 🙂
YEAH 3X CHRIS BROWN! I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE HIM LIVE AGIAN!!! The 09 mini-tour was amazing!! I even enjoyed the New Boyz!!
mmmmm …… ! 🙄 !
Congratulations !
@ Pop Royalty STOP IT PLEASE EVEN THOUGH CHRIS IS BANNED FROM OTHER COUNTRIES UNLIKE RIHANNA DOESNT MEAN YOU HAVE TO THROW SHADE !
i love this beauty queen with all my heart…i cant wait for lay it on me video…its been confirmed that her uk single is down for whatever.i love u so much honey
I figured she was only gonna do certain dates but damn! She is only gonna be on like half the tour! I guess she is gonna be busy with the X-Factor though.
I see she is not coming to my city either. Damnit Kelly! I actually wanted to see her perform live. I still don’t have her album and I probably won’t get it cause I really don’t like it but I was wanted to see her perform some of the songs off the album. Oh well.
I wonder if CB is gonna add another act to the show to replace Kelly on the shows that she can’t attend. I do like Tyga but he & TPain aren’t exactly acts that can attract an audience. I really hope someone will be added to the shows that Kelly won’t attend. I was kinda hoping Keri would join then but I guess that’s not gonna happen. *shrugs*
“FAME” Tour??

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
That makes Kelly an OPENING ACT!!
“JOINT TOUR” My Ass! 🙂
@s*** of course kelly is stupid
SMH, grown ass woman opening for a child because she couldn’t get her act together.
Well she’s only on half the dates so I’m guessing the other half is because shell be busy with the UK X Factor. I’m surprised she signed up for this show when she just launched a CD, guess not even age was expecting a success.
i’m going to see her SLAY sept. 30th!!! woooo
They are X Factor dates :S
FAME tour, here I come! 😀
teambreezy are you excited as hell for this concert. Im still waiting for my oct2nd date to be released so I can pay for my concert ticket. Im either getting the gold or silver package. Mostly likely gold its about $349. (silver is 199 w/ sound check and memborilla but your not front row your like in 11- 20) I have waited too long I have to be in the front. Gold package has sound check and front row seats and memorabilia . I love chris and all but im college student I cannot afford $ 549 for a premium package. I really wanted to do meet and greet. But hey If God favors me with extra money I will get them.
@TeamBreezy4life —
If Kelly Rowland wasn’t on the tour, I’d buy you a ticket. But she is, so she won’t be seeing – NOT A DIME OF MY MONEY..!!
Question is: might we see her 7-fans on the tour, the ones who bought “Here I Am”, all (less than) 120K Worldwide copies..?? I mean, if I’m not TOO mistaken: 77K-first week; 22k-second week; 16K-third week! After A-L-L the hype, nipple-ships and what-haveyou..
Again I’ll have to ask, if her 7-fans aren’t…”MOTIVATED” enough to buy her crappy CD, then how can they be expected to come up with the funds to buy a concert ticket to see her?
Matthew Knowles figured out, long ago, what we’re all now realizing: Kelly Rowland was T-H-E perfect band/group mate for Beyonce – because she’s NEITHER TALENTED, nor very Good-looking which made her NOT a threat to Beyonce!
He had to get rid of Latoya Luckett AND Farrah Franklyn. Why? Because they BOTH offered competition to/against Beyonce for any “SHINE” DC would have THEN received! So he kept the “life-sized, card-board cut-outs-like” Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams, which THEN guaranteed absolute focus and limelight upon his daughter and the DC “Golden Child”: Beyonce!
X,Y,”and Z” — OUT..!!
Kelly I’m coming for u October 2nd!!! I’ll be in the audience screaming loud as hell! lmao….
^^^^^^^^^^
Lmao!!!!
@ X,Y,”and Z”
U must have a miserable life 2 come on here & attack this woman 4 no reason at all… no one said anything negative about your “IDOL” Beyonce! The only reason y u did write what u wrote bcuz u know it’s not true & she is a threat… she has great potential of becoming a Diva, having longevity here in the states & being well respected in the industry. She may not have the fame Bey has right now but she is carving her own path to success & she will succeed with the help of her faith & that’s all u need… Stay mad!!!
@xyz
what city is your tour…
I also hope chris comes back to atlanta and do phillip arenas cause i really dont really like the idea of an outside concert. But oh well its worth it cause its breezy. i would do it for anyone else.
@collge girl chris is xyz idol gei it right
@jamir21:
STFU!
Chris is not banned from any country. He will be doing a world tour and yes the UK is on the schedule so know what you are talking about before you start typing crazy mess. AND who gives a flying f*ck about R******? She should be banned from every country for spreading EAR CANCER & GOAT JUICE!!
@X,Y,”and Z”,
Now we have already been through this…LOL! You know you are going to attend this concert to suppport Chris. There are only 2 ppl who could keep me from attending a Breezy concert: RiHOG and Beyonce’s pet Camel, Joe! Seeing these two opening for Chris would be a TRAGEDY!!
Well, hopefully she will not be on The F.A.M.E. Tour during the concert stop in your town!! *crossing fingers for you* 🙂
Kelly better perform and sing. I know she can do it and I hope the tour will boost her sales.

@ Mobwife RIHANNA WILL NEVER BE BANNED B**** !
@MOBWIFE re: August 19, 2011 at 6:02 pm
*crossing fingers for you*
You ’bout to catch some arthritis up in dem fingers if you’re “holding out for hope” (Real Talk)!! I’m NOT going! No, maam; not I! I’m sitting this one OUT!! Take a pass – I will!!
When “Fortune” drops, I’ll buy it. But till then? Well..till then my “discretionary funds” REMAIN in my pockets!
..And that “Think Like A Man” movie (“Terrence J” gets “male lead”?!!! WTF..?!!) Chris should leave that ALONE; matter a fact, he should RUN: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-zfCBCq-8I (<–FF to 27-seconds)
Mobwife, I'd like to ask you something, why is Kelly Rowland on this "F.A.M.E" tour? I mean, she was NEVER able to move units, here in the U.S. as a solo artist. She's NEVER had a Platinum single/CD – at least NOT according to RIAA. So what's the rational/logic to include her?
Now some will say: "Oh, but she's H-U-G-E in Europe..!!" But the facts/figures betray that logic. You see, she's, "to date", best sold in 2002 when she released "Simply Deep". It was THEN, some almost 10-YEARS AGO, that she was able to move Worldwide units – 2-Million. So then, her next release was in 2007 "Ms. Kelly" when she then moved 1.2-Million units. Don't you see the pattern of…"diminishing returns"? So now, according to mediatraffic, she's fell off the Top-40 Worldwide charts!
To me, it seems as though she's pinning all her hopes on her being that "X-Factor sitting judge/mentor". She's reasoning that her being a judge, given that platform, with her "contract clause" that allows her to then perform "Here I Am" material, will renew/re-spark interest in that said CD. But there has to be a "synergy" from the U.S. (Buzz/Sales) to that spark/re-spark interest on the U.K. charts, no? I mean, especially since folks don't have to wait for music to be released in different countries – with the 'net, once it's released in one place, it's released at that very instant EVERYWHERE..!!
..Also, just look at how badly she-herself/management/label handled the timing of her "Here I Am" single releases, videos, promotion! I'm NO "industry insider", but the entire "Here I Am" roll-out seemed.."jumbled, bumbling, clumsy and amateurish"!
Less-than 150K Worldwide after 3-weeks speaks VOLUMES! What happened? She had lots of momentum going into this release that should have pushed sales…
1.) The Anti-Beyonce/Matthew Knowles sentiment (guess we can dismiss, and do away with, those "Matthew Knowles held me back arguments, eh?")
2.) The dark-skin sista-gyrls unite – "I have a white man, which finally completes me" sentiments.
3.) "Motivation" being atop the charts for all that time (but just whose song was it: hers or Wayne's?).
4.) That much-hyped BET performance (even her "industry peers" chimed-in and lavished heaps of praise upon her performance).
I mean, she had EVERYTHING going for her… So, what happened? (I'll tell you EXACTLY…"what happened"). (As I'd said) "What happened" was the 'discretionary-spending public's' realization what Matthew Knowles had LONG-ago realized: Kelly Rowland is NOT "star/leading-lady/headline" material! She has ZERO "stage presence" (the harder she tries, to then-prove you wrong, the more it shows)! She can't sing (EXTREME WEAKNESS)! She can't dance (Kelly and Rihanna: "Sisters Of The Broke Feet")! This is why Matthew Knowles kept both her and Michelle Williams: Ladies-In-Waiting( to be seen, but NEVER heard), at DC's Golden Girl: Beyonce's, beck and call!
This why he was FORCED to get rid of Farrah Franklyn and Latoya Luckett: at the very least, Beyonce's equals in look AND talent!
Kelly Rowland adds NOTHING to the "F.A.M.E" tour. If anything, her very presence, as a "non-performing" entity, will detract from the hype, noise and buzz that his tour needs; have you recently looked "F.A.M.E" sales? He needs A-L-L the hype, hysteria, buzz he can possibly carry (ain't never seen Eagles fly with cinder blocks tied to their wings; have you?)..
X,Y,"and Z"
Whoever posted that first comment is doesn’t know what their talking about. You make more money on Tour for one, and plus shes touring with Chris Brown who is HOT at the moment. So as long as she gives a good consistent performance she could potentially pick up ALOT more fans to follow her in the US Market. Plus she can drop the video while she’s on Tour.
