It’s a far cry from Hannah Montana! Miley Cyrus’s Bangerz tour faces backlash with ‘flood’ of complaints from parents and calls for cancellation

 



 

 

But despite Miley Cyrus’s Bangerz tour making headlines, the former child star’s shocking on-stage antics may have backfired.
A new report on Australia’s NineMSN music blog, MusicFix suggests that Miley’s management has been subject to a slew of complaints since she kicked off her tour in Vancouver last Friday.

‘Miley’s management have been flooded with complaints, mainly from parents, since her tour began last week in Canada with calls for the entire tour to be axed,’ a source told the website.

‘Her team, including management, record label execs and the entire tour staff including the director, costume department and choreographers – have been called for an emergency meeting as arenas across the US threaten to pull out of the show.’


One insider said a a parent contacted Miley’s record company Interscope after they walked out of the concert saying they would not subject their nine-year-old to a ‘porn show.’

The latest report chimes with Forbes magazine’s claim which suggests that demand for Miley ticket sales has ‘softened’.

They quote data from ticket website TiqIQ which claims the average secondary market price for Miley’s Bangerz tour is now $182, ‘which is down from over $225 just two months ago.’



Miley’s shocking tour is a far cry from her wholesome Disney TV alter ego Hannah Montana where she starred as a moonlighting schoolgirl pop star from March 2006 to June 2011.


The Bangerz tour will take in 39 dates in North America and 21 in Europe, ending in mid June.

LiveNation issued a statement to MailOnline on Thursday stating that there are no problems with the tour.



‘There is no truth whatsoever to any stories or rumors of venues pulling out of the Bangerz Tour,’¹ started the statement.

‘Miley has created a tour that’s big, spectacular, entertaining and everything you would expect from Miley Cyrus. Reviews have been amazing and most important, fans are loving the show and having a great time.’

Before the tour began, Miley said she hoped some of the show would be ‘educational.¹ She told MTV:  ‘I hope people open their minds and they look at my tour as something that I do feel is educational for kids.

‘Because I think a lot of people aren’t exposed to art enough and that’s something that I had to learn about.

She added: ‘It’s a lot how a play would be and we’ve got kind of these intermissions to keep people really involved and what I wanted is for people to see a show that they would least expect.

‘I want my fans to walk away knowing more about the art that inspires me. Between the VMAS and unplugged, there’s a hybrid that really makes it about the music.

‘It is fun for people to walk out and be like “Oh my God did she just do that?”¹ but there’s so much that I do love about shock value, but then I really want there to be that core about the music.’
