Have tickets already been sold? How many? Or, how few?

Not many tickets sold, mark my words.

Strewth, the obvious reason she postpones/cancels this tour is lack of interest. Her and her weirdo brother aint much of crowd pullers anymore, and i aint surprised with their rubbishy music.

“due to the impact of economic crisis" So in other words nobody is buying tickets to her concert. When will she just go away, she has zero talent and her music is crap.

The ecomonic crisis didn't seem to stop anyone from seeing Clapton, Rod Stewart, The Who, etc. Her blame-game is a very poor excuse. Fact is her recent album tanked and we're all tired of seeing her weight fluctuate like a yo-yo. Pull the cord now, so we can all enjoy that one good Jimmy Jam produced song from the '80's. Forgot the name...

The ads they played on the subway had her bulging in a skin-tight jumpsuit...

Excuses , Excuses she is ichiban, numero uno for canceling shows. She is spoiled so is her brother Mikey. I was thinking about buying tickets but I predicted she would cancel the last minute so I didn't bother buying her tickets.

She is NUMBER 1 for cancelling postphoning shows. The Jackson Family is really failing their fans. So, sad !!!!

She should have just added Germaine to the bill. Two Jackos for the price of one!! They would packem in.

Concerts are canceled all the time in Japan. But not once have I heard the promoter admit it's because of poor ticket sales.

Ms. Jackson is too proud to downgrade to a smaller venue, and from the recent pictures I've seen of her she'd have a hard time herself squeezing onto a smaller stage.

I have tickets but I expected this would happen so I didn't have my hopes up.

Wow, when a washed-up American celebrity doesn't sell well in Japan, then well.....they're really washed up. Even Courtney Love could probably hold a concert here, Britney too, heck even Paris Hilton has fans here.
