This week the start of Mariah Carey's Christmas tour had to be used back a few days after she came down with a bronchial infection [click here if you missed that].
What a coincidence...
...getting sick at the same time ticket sales are slumping.
According to Showbiz 411
Tickets to Carey’s four Christmas shows at the Beacon Theatre have gone up on discount services like GoldStar. The first two shows have not sold at all. The second two look a little better now, but the full picture hasn’t yet been seen.
Mariah’s new single, “The Star,” from the Christian based movie of the same name, has sold only 3,400 copies since its release on October 20th. It was met with indifference despite it being a pretty good ballad that shows off Mariah’s famous voice. But there’s been no push from Epic Records, where Mariah signed before LA Reid left the company.
