PINK BREAKS MINOGUE RECORD DOWN UNDER

 

U.S. singer PINK has shattered Australian KYLIE MINOGUE's home record as the female artist to sell the most concert tickets in an arena tour Down Under. Pink has been in Australia since 14 April (07) and has played 35 gigs to more than 307,000 fans in Sydney, Perth, Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide, Newcastle, Canberra, the Gold Coast and Wollongong. She says, "I'm kind of sad it's all over now. Australia's always been such a special place for me and now it's even more so after the last couple of months." Minogue's previous record, set on her Showgirl Homecoming Tour last year (06), saw her perform 20 concerts to 215,000 fans across Australia.

 

Pretty impressive as we all know how BIG Kylie is in OZ :o

US rocker Pink has shattered records as the female artist to sell the most concert tickets in an arena tour in Australia - taking the mantle from Kylie Minogue.

The Pink one, who started her Australian tour back in early April, played 35 shows, to more than 307,000 fans.

 

Kylie's previous record, for her Showgirl Homecoming Tour in 2006, saw her perform 20 concerts to 215,000 fans across Australia.

 

"I'm kind of sad it's all over now," Pink says. "Australia's always been such a special place for me and now it's even more so after the last couple of months."

 

Doing the maths based on punters forking out an average of $90 each to see the chart-topping US pop/rock chick, that adds up to more than $27 million in the concert tour kitty. And you can throw in a few more mega-bucks from merchandise sales.

 

:o

That's really amazing! :D Never thought she'd beat Kylie in her own country :D
