Madonna’s Sticky & Sweet Tour Soured for Australian Fans

Madonna has cancelled bringing her “Sticky & Sweet” tour to Australia in 2009 due to the weak Australian dollar upsetting many loyal fans in the process.

The production was costly to stage, resulting in high ticket prices to the public and due to this, Madge was concerned she might not fill an entire stadium. Let’s face it, who the hell is going to fork out up to $400 in these lean money grabbing times to see the Sinewy One. Probably only diehards and there’s no way Madonna would play to a half filled stadium even just for the loyal ones.

C’mon peoples, let’s show a bit of understanding. There’s a global financial crisis going down and Madonna’s been hard hit, alright?

The “Sticky & Sweet” tour has already taken in 28 dates which Madonna launched on August 23rd in Cardiff of which she has only earned a measly $91.5 million in profit and over $207 million in ticket sales. Clearly Madge is on the bread line and even though she allegedly didn’t outlay any money or any of her precious paintings to Guy Ritchie in her recent divorce, that’s really not the point.

She’s a single girl now with three kiddies to support so it’s important for her to count all her pennies and save for a brighter day. Madonna also needs to buy up all the Kabbalah water which can be quite expensive not to mention the up keep costs to preserve her new face.

This is the second time Madonna has cut her tour to Australia. She previously cancelled the “Confessions on A Dance Floor Tour” in 2006 citing the fact she was a great parent and needed to get back to London to get her kids ready for the new school term or some shit. This time it’s the Australian dollar. She’s only brought one tour to Australia which was the “Girly Show” in 1993. Since then there has been a lot of sorry ass excuses.

Australian audiences will have to be satisfied listening to her sticky music instead.
