About Those Madonna Rumours

by Paul Cashmere - February 4 2009

So Madonna is touring Australia this year. Well, don`t believe everything you hear in the press.

Those Madonna to tour Australia rumours are all bullshit, Undercover has learned.

Despite dates published in the newspaper last week and venues announced, Madonna is not coming to Australia.

The date suggested for Melbourne at the venue Telstra Dome was wrong. There is no booking at Telstra Dome for that evening.

Madonna?ÇÖs record label has denied the stories stating it was the first they heard of it. The promoter who was in negotiations to bring her down under before the dollar crashed also denies the tour is happening, and if so, not with him.

The Sticky and Sweet tour was originally talked about when the Australian dollar was around 95c to the US dollar. Today it is sitting at 65c.

For a promoter to bring Madonna down in that economy would mean a substantial increase in risk. To cover the price of the tour, the ticket price would be extremely high.

Madonna does do a discount rate and for a promoter, she is not exactly the hottest ticket in town right now. A small drop-off in interest would be disastrous to the finances of the promoter.

Madonna in Australia in 2009 just ain?ÇÖt gonna happen.
