The Queen of Pop sells out but she does it in the best way possible. Madonna has reportedly sold 1 million tickets for her upcoming tour. It shows that she’s still got it and why she’s playing stadiums. To date, Madonna has sold out her shows in Mexico City, Paris, Lisbon, New York, Zurich, Boston, Chicago, Denver, East Rutherford, Oakland, Las Vegas, Houston, Montreal, Toronto and Vancouver. Sources are also saying that Madonna is likely going to extend her tour to do more shows in Latin America. The people obviously want Madonna so it shouldn’t be any surprise if her tour does get extended.

Kylie Minogue kicks off
Posted in Concert, Kylie Minogue, World Tour on the May 8, 2008
Kylie Minogue kicked off her long-awaited tour last night with ex-boyfriend Olivier Martinez in the audience.
The French actor – who split from the singer in February 2007 – joined 10,000 fans at Paris’ Bercy Stadium, in France, at the opening night of ‘KylieX2008′.
An onlooker said: ‘Olivier looked on very proudly as Kylie wowed fans with the show, which was spectacular.’
Kylie – who recently denied claims she had rekindled her romance with Olivier, insisting they were just friends - opened the show above the stage in a full-length purple gown amid green wires in a gold hoop as she performed ‘Speakerphone’ from her latest album ‘X’. As well as singing a host of her classic hits including ‘Can’t Get You Out Of My Head’ and ‘Step Back In Time’, the Australian beauty thrilled the crowd with her own version of Barry Manilow’s ‘Copacabana’.
The tour has cost over $20 million to stage and includes 53 dates across Europe, concluding with a six-night residency at London’s O2 arena ending in August.
It is her first full tour since being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005. Kylie – who on Monday was pronounced a Knight in the Order of Arts and Letters in France – recently revealed she was counting down the days until the tour started.
The ‘Wow’ singer said: “The countdown has begun!! Not long now before opening night for ‘KylieX2008′!!!! My cast, crew and I have been working hard to really make this show ’spectacular’ for you. Full production rehearsals are coming up and we are very excited to merge all the various elements of the show.”

KT Tunstall performed at the Hammersmith Apollo on Friday in London, England. KT just completed a month-long stride touring around Australasia and the Far East. But her work doesn’t stop there. The ‘Suddenly I See’ singer will now be heading to the rest of Europe, the US and later on Canada for the continuation of her tour. KT’s becoming pretty popular these days. She went on the record to say “One of the weirdest things ever just happened yesterday. I got an e-mail from my manager, the subject of which was the Dalai Lama, and the message said, ‘He wants to meet you!’â€
