Lady Gaga's tour is selling really well actually thanks for asking

lady gaga applause videoLook guys, Lady Gaga's ARTrave Born This Ball Monster Tour is selling really well actually.

Speaking to Billboard Biz, your friend and ours Arthur Fogel, who is of course chairman of Live Nation’s global touring division, said claims the tour was strug­gling to sell were "ridicu­lous".

“The run with Gaga over the last two tours has been incred­ibly suc­cess­ful, and this one is shaping up no dif­fer­ently,” he continued, before rattling off some facts about it all being 80% sold out already and that the 29 shows that are on sale in North America have already grossed $26 million in ticket sales.

He also denied the tour was running at a $30m loss: "Forget $30 million, if it were actually true, you’d say ‘pull the plug'."

So there you have it. Nothing to worry about. LOOK OVER THERE!!!
