AS IF THE BITCH DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY

I'm a bit on the fence with this one!

Not only does Madonna charge upwards of $300 for the best seats on her tour, but now she wants a piece of the ticket scalpers' pie.

this is not a joke (but is it usually when the Queen of making money is involved???)

Ticket scalpers (or "brokers" as they like to be called) buy up the majority of concert tickets, leaving many die hard fans to turn to other venues to buy their tix.

Now, Madonna is going into bed with the enemy!

Her Madgesty is the first artist to make a deal with StubHub, which is owned by eBay and lets people legally scalp (or "resell") their concert tickets.

M will get a base fee PLUS a cut of all the ticket sales.

So, in theory, the higher U pay for your ticket on StubHub, the more money she makes.

Why would Madonna (or anyone) wanna encourage ticket scalping/reselling????

Money isn't everything in life! I thought you learned that in your Kaballah teachings.
