Smh at some people acting as if the cancellation of the entire European tour is no big deal. Unless Janet goes into serious damage control mode SOON she can kiss any kind of even moderate success here goodbye. A lot of people here already saw her as a "flop" or "irrelevant" or whatever, obviously not true, and this mess will only further that feeling here. The blame lies with both LN and Janet. Were they even communicating? LN should have told Janet, at the start of the year say, that the ticket sales are still slow and you need to help us help you shift tickets by doing some form of publicity for the tour (maybe they did, but ten second video's on her Twitter/Facebook page that the public aren't even going to see doesn't cut it) and LN should have either booked smaller venue's and put on extra shows where appropriate ala UCAP or released limited amounts of tickets and increased them as demand dictated. Janet's tour was not any less promoted than anyone else's. However, LN have done a shitty thing here and I hope Janet hauls through the coals for it. Janet thinking she was above proper promotion over here and still be able to sell the tour was quite (unintentionally) arrogant if you ask me. She did good in America, but here not only has she a tour/album to sell in countries where she hasn't had any major success in for years, but she also has a record label to finance. I don't get why someone with such a business venture doesn't want to sell her products appropriately. How's she making money from cancelled shows and dismal record sales? Unbreakable is good enough that with the right push it could perform much better than it has, at least outside the States. It's non existent here, and BBC Radio 2 have just dropped TGF from their playlist, a week after it went for official adds. People using Madonna as an example are correct, yes the tons of promo she did didn't do much for sales (that's party cos the music is rubbish) but she's still going to hit a million WW and she's selling out arena's and stadiums the world over. Not shabby at all. No reason Janet, with a masterpiece of an album that has worldwide appeal and who is still a hundred times the performer of Madonna, can't do the same, yet she couldn't even half fill some arena's. It's not about her selling as much as or more than her peers or getting hits or number one's or whatever, it's getting her WW status improved so she can actually tour, which is where the money is now. She wouldn't be touring if she didn't want to tour, or make money, or sell the album. Janet needs to decide whether she wants to be a pop star or not. If not, release albums whenever she feels inspired to do so, no publicity, no non existent conversations or movements, no getting fan's hopes up of seeing you live and being cancelled on, maybe do few shows here and there where she knows she'll sell well, and just let the music do what it's gonna do and retreat behind the scenes away from public view as she so desires, or she gets her arse into gear, sells her products appropriately to enable tours to go ahead and do well, make the coins for her business venture's and cements her legacy again as the legend she is. (sorry for the stupid long post. Guess I just needed a vent lol)
