Is Beyonce's Tour In Jeopardy Of Poor Attendance?

Beyonce has recently started what’s being reported as essentially a paid rehearsal for her upcoming international “I Am…Sasha Fierce” tour in Canada. But, when performed her first date in Edmonton she only attracted a crowd of 8,000. By contrast, Britney Spears’ upcoming tour stop has sold far more seats.

And now, Beyonce is apparently selling tickets anywhere from $125.00 to $25.00 for additional dates in the country. Is this a sign for the future of the tour? Will audiences be telling Beyonce, “I Am…Broke?”

Beyonce has to realized that a majority of her fanbase are teenagers and young adults that are already struggling to meet their obligations, and though she has proven numberous times she's a viable force, its obvious she's no match for Britney or Madonna, at least when it comes to selling tickets.
