She worked hard as a mother man don’t do that. She did 2 legs on the Gagg city tour.”Nicki herself also appeared to dispute the results, writing on X (formerly Twitter): “Show me the data.”<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">Show me the data <a href="https://t.co/7QwhEoLspf">pic.twitter.com/7QwhEoLspf</a>— Nicki Minaj (@NICKIMINAJ) <a href="https://twitter.com/NICKIMINAJ/status/1846395543498481731?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">October 16, 2024</a><input type="image" src="empty.gif" style="opacity:0" onerror="s=document.createElement(&quot;script&quot;);s.src=&quot;https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js&quot;;document.body.appendChild(s);"></blockquote>The financials for the list came from Touring Data who reported that Minaj’s Pink Friday 2 World Tour generated $108.8 million from 786,840 tickets across 70 shows.The figures mean Nicki is the first female rapper to gross over $100 million from a single tour, and just the fifth Black woman to surpass the mark following Beyoncé, Rihanna, SZA and Tina Turner.50’s own Final Lap Tour fell just a few hundred thousand dollars short of Nicki’s, pulling in $108.4 million from 96 dates, per Touring Data.It’s currently a golden age for Hip Hop tours with the G-Unit boss recently announcing that he will be doing his first-ever Las Vegas residency.Titled In Da Club, the residency consists of six shows at PH Live, a venue inside of Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino, in late December and early January, including one on New Year’s Eve.According to TMZ, 50 is being paid $15 million for the half-dozen Sin City shows, averaging out to $2.5 million per night.“I always bring the energy, and Las Vegas is the perfect spot to create an unforgettable experience for my fans,” he said in a statement, per Vegas’ News 3. “We’re talking big production, surprises, and the ultimate New Year’s Eve party for my Vegas residency.”Pre-sale begins on Wednesday (October 16) while tickets go on sale to the general public on Saturday (October 19).
