Madonna is a merchandise record seller
“The merchandise for Madonna breaks sales records every night” while touring. The main reason why Britney Spears’ sales figures over the past five years are higher than Madonna’s is because Madonna has toured only once in that period versus Spears’ four outings. Madonna will soon get a chance to narrow the gap when she begins a world tour in Los Angeles on May 24.”
This is Dell Furano, CEO of Signatures Network Inc. in an interview on the eve of the debut of the European leg of Briteny Spears’ Onyx Hotel tour today at London’s Wembley Arena, the same venue that will see Madonna performing the last four shows of the UK stop of her re-Invention tour.
Signatures Network holds worldwide merchandising and marketing rights to more than 125 top music artists and entertainment properties, including Bruce Springsteen, U2, the Beatles, Jessica Simpson, Ozzy Osbourne and Tim McGraw.
