Beyonce Set To Make $100M Just From Ticket Sales On Tour

If you want to know what makes Beyonce get out of bed in the morning, it is probably the thought of making $1.6M that night performing at a show. So far during her Mrs. Carter tour she has been earning about $1.6M per show just from the ticket sales. Doing the math it looks like she will gross about $100M for the whole tour and you can usually add another 50% for merchandise which means her gross will be about $150M. Not bad work if you can get it. This is what kills me when someone like Mary J Blige can't pay her bills. Is she Beyonce? No, but she can go on tour and make $100M if she goes out on the road and plays three times as many shows. Instead she just stays home and spends more money and does nothing to solve her issues. When Lauryn Hill needed money to pay her taxes she went out on the road and made the money in a week. Singers who have a following should never ever have money issues. Toni Braxton? Go on the road and play shows. I think someone like Toni misses the day when people bought records and she could stay home and get huge paychecks without hitting the road. Different world. Can't be lazy any longer.
