I think they are but it just so happens, Madonna has it in the shape of a triangle.

Like on Parkinson...tbh she will always put down Madonna yet respect her...i mean that pic in 1998 with her, M and Versace (i think!) always amuses me tbh...Madonna in ROL phase clearly the most established there yet Cher (yeah i know Believe and all that) looks confused as to why she is standing with them and who she is LOL.

It is strange that Cher kinda has these success blimps...like a big success in the 60s, another 70s, a couple in the 80s, Believe in the 90s and now theres nothing she has resorted to these tactics now she has a)worked with gaga b) worked on her tour and c) has some stuff out there to endorse tbh.

So why are they saying they would move people from the golden circle to the golden triangle? Or have I just read it wrong? lol still I don't care where I am as long as I can see.

Also you only get early entry if you got golden circle don't you? Or was there an option to get an early entry pass with general admission? I'm bloody confused there's too many options lol.

I'd never take any of Chers success and achievements away from her but at this point in her career throwing shade (and she was I don't care what she says or how she tries to pull it back) is lame. Sometimes I think that people comment on Madonna when they have nothing to say about themselves. It's funny because people are more interested in what they say about Madonna than what they say about their own shit too.

i love the amount of attention she gt for that though! Mention Madonna and EVERYONE cares! mention yourself...only the fans care haha

I do like Cher though and respect her and heck i own Believe and Love Hurts albums (her best IMO) but she never truly impacted me if that makes sense.

Whereas with Madonna...i cannot wait to overall see her legacy after this decade...this decade will provide the biggest challenges of her legacy to date i reckon...and i cannot wait when we are there and see the overall impact of what she has paved across her career....amazing!

I love Cher, I own everything she has ever done but sometimes she needs to shut up. Twitter is no good for her. Madonna fans were a bit pissed off with her but loads tweeted her saying you know MDNA Cher. It's the Queen of pop. ahahaha. Then MDNA queen of pop trended I think.

I love that everytime an anti Madonna thing is on twitter the fans trend something that pisses everyone off. Usually it's MADONNA QUEEN OF POP. Or MDNA tour slays. It's always done with humour though and not to be malicious.

I do love it when M fans do that!

I wish she had called Celebration, Queen Of Pop instead.

Jacko loved using his King Of Pop title and pimped it for all it was worth. Madonna seems much more laid back although she acknowledges it in 'I Don't Give A' via Nicki Minaj.

It makes me laugh so much. Also when people trend anti Madonna things (the RIP one being the worst) Madonna fans trended queen of pop for so long. And have you ever read the replies back to little monsters? They are so funny. Just cut 'em down with facts. Wins everytime.Oh and one time monsters trended something horrible about MDNA flopping so they trended we hate lady gaga. Twitter was a shit storm that night. LOL.

I have realised though that Madonna fans do, do it with a sense of humour.

I might re name celebration queen of pop now on my ipod ahahahahaha.

The Golden Triangle is the small bit at the end of the stage runway. It is surrounded by The golden Circle and they are both seperate entities.

Don't know about Birmingham if that's where you are going as it's all seated but for hyde park and murrayfield there will be early entry ticket holders who will get in earlier than gold circle ticket holders, some early entry people will be in the gold circle.

There is a triangle which is separate from gold circle. You can still gain access to the triangle via fan club competitions also on the day of the concert there is a kind of lottery for gold circle ticket holders to get into the triangle. Someone comes round with an iPad and you press the screen if you win you get into the triangle if not you are in the circle. I saw the show from the circle both times I've been, personally I think it's better from there.

FANTASTIC!!!

Throw that in the faces of all these haters and they won't have any comeback

So if she has grossed $150 with just 14 shows how many is that if we project the full 88 then? I'm terrible at maths but will she break the Sticky and Sweet record?

That means she is averaging just over $10m per show. Absolutely incredible!

This compares with Lady Gaga, who according to so and so, has grossed $70m in 33 shows. Now who's the queen??

I so want to start a thread pointing out these incredible figures but it might be seen as baiting!!!

Like I said I am no expert at maths but if she has grossed $150 from 14 shows alone then she is looking at over $500/$600 in total as she has 88 dates in total and a possible second leg.

I'm in total shock she might end up grossing the highest tour of all time for any musical act yet alone a singer.

i IMO think Celebration may have been titled Queen Of Pop....but it wasnt a complete collection tbh....and IMO when they do unleash that beast (and they will i reckon) they will utilise it...but i kinda love Madonna for not using it too much even though everyone knows it tbh!

and fantastic stats....absolutely fantastic stats i am so so impressed Rock On ]\/[!
