Top-Grossing Tour 2008 Celine Dion #5

[lost84]

Celine Dion's Taking Chances Tour is on #5 and grossed $91 Mio.

 

1. Bon Jovi $210.6 Mio

2. Bruce Springsteen $204.5 Mio

3. Madonna $162 Mio

4. The Police $150 Mio

 

I hoped she will beat Madonna...

[Cambroneroj]

I would like to see the final numbers when the tour is over to be able to compare it to others. They say Madonna will win the tittle of top grossing concert tour ever for a female but who knows maybe Celine can beat that!

[Bellamy]

$91M maybe is North America tour gross only so far. The whole tour can't be so little till now.

[micabri05]

I agree...that's gotta only be in the states. There's no way...

billboard never seemed to report the grosses from all the shows.. O_O the article mentions how madonna's tour is not over yet it doesn't mention celine's tour isn't over either! Edited December 11, 2008 at 07:02 PM by Your_Su_Phu

[VinnyT.]

billboard just counted all the info they reported in last few months..they missed something like 50 shows for celine!

 

this list is full of sh**t

[Your_Su_Phu]

someone should contact them! *rants*

[VintageCeline]

Madonna! Booo! Most people have said that her concerts really aren't great.

Awww dont worry guys! She's totally going to beat Madonna!

Unfortunately, they did. It sucks...

Definitely... But I'm afraid it won't be recognized.

[CelionDion]

I've already read various articles saying that Trandonna is going to get the top-grossing tour ever by a female artist or solo artist, like this one: http://www.zeenews.com/entertainment/music...487508news.html

 

Unfortunately it's always like this with the old hag, whenever she does something it's always in the news. Even if Celine would break her record, www.celinedion.com would probably be the only website to publish this news

 

But at least we know who's the real queen

[LVCeline]

Man, those old rock bands sure do rake in the money! Bon Jovi and Bruce Springsteen? That always amazes me how many fans they still have after all these years! Do they count ticket prices when they figure the money? I wonder if they charge more?

[Black Kitten]

isn't Madonna's Confession Tour the highest grossing tour by a female artist? no? i so wish Celine will surpass it... fingers crossed. only the best for Celine!

[Nmj]

Celine should be Madonna out

[Your_Su_Phu]

as much as she's a "legend" and I like many of her songs

 

she's seriously the most overrated 'artist' of all times

 

I don't consider her the queen of pop. I consider her the queen of publicity stunts.

 

her fans annoy me to no end. they're worse than regine velasquez fans. and that's saying something

Billboard is not always reliable.

[Prince Whiskers]

Why the continued reluctance to report all her shows? Are Reneyy and the promoters hiding something?

[john]

It does not do sense that these numbers are not spread, or it will be same that Céline profited from everything what they spoke here in the shows in Europe, Asia, South Africa and Oceania, it will be, that is flat, poruqe for us fans she would be first of all more for others not, the persons it has the newspapers speaking that she is in 5th, since we fans are going to talk about the celine if n have nothing...

[Céline's Blues]

She herself id fault but she doesn't give a damn. Maybe it's good maybe not. I want a French album.

[Davey84]

Even if Celine would break her record, www.celinedion.com would probably be the only website to publish this news

 

yeah after 2 months!

 

 

I want a French album.

 

 

HERE!

I think 'new' was implied there dear Davey

[Davey84]

he didn't say that!

[helios.apollon]

can someone tell me why celine comes at #5 with taking chances tour ONLY WITH 44 CONCERTS???? i counted only the concerts in EUROPE AND NORTH AMERICA till the end of november and i count 74 concerts... excluded africa asia australia and december...

 

WHY ARE THEY COUNTING 44 CONCERTS ONLY??? are they stupid?????

 

madonna appears with 39 concerts (i counted the concerts of sweet tour till end of november europe and north america 47 concerts, some concerts out of list but not 30 like celine...)

 

are they afraid to put celine topping the boxscore????? because i believe she will by the end of the tour with all the concerts counted!!! even bon jovi probably she will beat!

 

this according to the year end list of billboard...

[lost84]

They are lying

[Nando Férri]

I'm still questioning myself: Why some numbers just desappears from that list? What is the rule? o.O

[JohnFan97]

This is so untrue. Celine will beat madonna. I can't understand people that go to see Madonna, im sorry. She has some nice songs: Frozen, Like A Prayer, but the woman is such a _____. She was rude to many of her fans and told them so shut up at various concerts. If my artist did that to me I wouldnt ever buy another CD or see a concert from them again. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ibfsCZ4Ytbc

 

 

Btw, someone needs to tell madonna she is not 17 yrs old.

 

Celine, please beat madonna

[Nando Férri]

The point for me is not the fact of people going to see Madonna live. (She's in Brazil, in my city till sunday)

The problem is WHY THEY ARE NOT COUNTING SO MUCH NUMBERS of Taking Chances Tour!

[whineupemily]

They are afraid of Celine making it to the top .. stupid *censored*; THEY LIE.

[Costa Santos]

Probably...
