I just called it the summer fair tour, it's easier than saying "an assortment of performances all over North America the US, at county fairs." lol

I only guestimated on the number of tickets she sold prior to the postponing at the Calgary Saddledome. Before the stupid ass cancellation, there were no floor seats, only lower level seats in the very back and upper level seats were already starting to sell. The arena is huge so I took a wild stab at it. Haha.

well you know the minute you say Kelly's cancelling her "summer tour" the tards will latch on and that's all we'll hear about

and I went through something similar in 2007. I already had my ticket to the Kelly concert happening in Sept when that tour was actually cancelled. I was bummed but I live in the U.S. so it wasn't the same cuz I knew she was coming back my way sooner or later.

Does her new album suck so bad they have to throw out multiple songs at once to see the public likes any of them like bait on a fishing rod? I guess the answer is no if they are confident with the current singles out.

did you even read what you wrote? You just admited that Kelly's album doesn't suck and the current single is doing pretty damn well

18 17 KELLY CLARKSON I Do Not Hook Up 4296 3816 480 27.690

and that's with a Clear Channel station purge that has been fucking up almost every song in the top 40 for the last week or so.

In other news, Long Shot and Already Gone are up on promosquad for ratings. I would love Long Shot as the next single because it feels more like a summer song, while Already Gone feels more fall-ish for me. But they're both great songs and deserve to be singles.

I think the current single will last through at least July early August so releasing Long Shot as the third single isn't in the cards, not to mention Kelly should release a ballad now. She's done two uptempos and she needs to balance that out by slowing it down.

Not to mention I don't want her releasing another Katy Perry written song. I like the song just fine but I don't think long shot is single worthy. Not when there are much better songs on the album like DLMSY and IICHY

I don't recall any other artists releasing things this way. The problem with this is once all are out there what happens in 5 months or around Christmas. It would be already seen or heard.

MD > this mess it appears and the promotion is not the excuse this time. If you want to blame anything blame it on she can't get into shape and look the way she did when Breakaway was released.

She's just fat now but then she looked very nice!

you idiots that only listen to country really are stupid aren't you? she didn't release another single you fucking moron. Promosquad is a music site that allows fans to sample songs and rate them on how they like them. Labels use it as a tool to find out what the fans are into and what is missing the mark. New music gets tested there as well by bands who haven't released albums yet to see what songs should go on the album. Expand your horizons beyond the haystack and spit buckets of country and you'll find there is a big ole world out here that's full of better music than what you're listening to.

and again @ now you all are praising MD. We knew you'd come around.

with this era she's had two top 20 hits and the album spent two weeks at #1 so the media has labeled this era a HIT so just like when they labeled MD a flop that's the reality of it for the general public.

it's gonna be fun to watch you twist and spin when this album surpasses MD and it WILL pass it you can almost bank on that. She has promo coming up this week on Leno and Ellen, this weekend is mother's day and then she has the GMA concert series in July not to mention her current single is holding sales up very nicely.

Kelly is fatter now than when Breakaway started? for real? weren't you all saying this same exact thing during MD? do you ever get new material?

I wonder how she's managed to get a #1 song and #1 album and another top 20 song since clearly she's so fucking overweight no one is interested.
