Canceling shows is not new, but canceling shows just a few hours before the show like international star Ariana’s live show called Dangerous women tour, scheduled to take place on the evening of August 23 at Military Region 7 Stadium (HCMC), Truly a historic “explosion”.
The number “exploded” just a few hours before the show, everyone considered this a historic explosion
Those who loved and longed to watch the night unfold were confused and upset. This is completely understandable when it’s close to show time, instead of the sparkling lights or sublime moments with the music of the international “diva” girl, everything is resolved quietly. Seeing the backstage staff disassemble each stage item made the audience “crazy”. News feed (information posting) flooding social networks is the shock and anger of those who were ready to go to this show.
Hundreds of stories of Vietnamese fans laughing to tears when they accidentally bought tickets to watch the show. Among them, some viewers even flew halfway around the world (from Russia) to Vietnam to watch. Hundreds of young people spent money on plane tickets from Hanoi and Da Nang to see the “slutty girl” Ariana perform but “oh my god”. Among them, there are not only ordinary audiences but also runner-ups, beauty queens and Vietnamese singers.
On her personal page, Ariana Grande posted an apology for having to cancel the show at the last minute and promised to make up for it with another show. She hopes to receive the audience’s sympathy. Accordingly, due to health problems and having to follow the doctor’s instructions, Ariana Grande had to cancel her show in Vietnam just a few hours before the show officially started.
The concert in Vietnam is not an event Ariana Grande was invited to perform but is part of Ariana Grande’s official world tour. Accordingly, the program content is similar to that in other countries, so the requirements for security and image security were announced very early.
If many Vietnamese viewers only felt regret, many viewers expressed anger to the point of attacking Ariana Grande’s fanpage. They do not accept the “health” reason given by Ariana Grande. On social networks, many hypothetical reasons were given to explain this historic “outbreak”. “The show’s cancellation was actually because the organizers failed to sell 70% of the tickets as agreed. That’s why Ariana Grande decided to refuse to perform,” this information attracted the attention of the online community. .
There is no real evidence about this incident as both the organizers and Ariana Grande confirmed that health was the main reason, with a doctor’s recommendation, causing the live show to be canceled at the last minute. But, netizens’ conjecture is not completely unreasonable when the agreement that shows must reach 70% of ticket sales is true. This is almost a common agreement for most international stars when touring in different countries. Because the audience is a guarantee of their position and reputation, at least in their country, through media information.
However, more knowledgeable sources say that filling the stadium and satisfying contract conditions is not difficult when the organizers have plenty of ways to bring the audience into the stadium. Therefore, Ariana Grande’s “naughty nature” (which has been mentioned many times by the world media before) is also one of the reasons worth paying attention to. Suddenly “the rain is erratic”, my mind is not clear and I don’t want to sing, which is not unreasonable. Because, in the Vietnamese music market, Vietnamese fans are not among the concerns of the world’s famous stars.
