    I heard a lot of stories that Lady Gaga's Latin American Leg of her 'Born This Way Ball' was flopping but I didn't realise it was going so badly!
    It was going so badly for Live Nation they had no choice but to use Madonna's stage for Lady Gaga's tour and give away THOUSANDS OF TICKETS!
    As much as 7:1 in terms of ticket gross
    As much as 4:1 in terms of attendance

    Looks like she has grossed over $10 million from four gigs. That must still be serious profit for her.

    Also, why the comparison to Madonna? Madonna is a showbiz veteran that's far more likely to appeal to a broader range of fans considering she has been around so long. GaGa is likely to be popular with a younger crowd (with less disposable income).
