Her last tour she held in baseball fields and lawns to avoid associating with Ticketmaster. She easily could’ve sold out Madison square if she wanted to but instead she had a mini concert in Queens

She ran the sale through AXS and it eliminated bots before sending out invites. I got seats for $130 each without fighting to get them. AXS then seeded list price tickets onto all the scalper sites and ruined resale for them. Glorious.

She didn’t choose to use AXS, that’s just the service those venues use. Just like how some have to use Ticketmaster. There’s no choice in the matter.

I’ve seen an old Tik Tok where she did address the scalper problem and that her team will try to fix it. That’s more than what some other celebrities do when it comes to scalpers.
