Oh ok, cool. So mega-rich pop stars have found shiny new ways to take all our money. Katy Perry, Justin Timberlake, Lady Gaga, Kanye West and Robbie Williams are all touring Australia this year – which is fabulous obviously.
But they’re luring us all in with promises of actual human contact, special shiny seats, bonus merchandise, warm-up parties, and early entrance so you can skip the queues.
That is, if you’re prepared to hand over all your cash.
Unfairly handsome dancing man Justin Timberlake is coming here in September and for a cool $1500, JT fans get two seats at a VIP table… but no contact whatsoever with the Bringing Sexy Back singer himself.
For the same amount – 1500 big ones – you can actually touch Lady Gaga… or more specifically, have an awkward photo taken next to her.
As part of the Gaga VIP package, you get to sit in an elevated area on-stage, and walk away with some sweet Gaga merch (a Little Monsters mug you can wear as a hat and a t-shirt made of lamb shanks, we presume).
JT and Gaga make pop star Katy Perry’s VIP deal look like a god-damn bargain in comparison.
For the bargain-basement price of $500, you get early entrance to the “reflection stage” and a dedicated VIP bathroom.

here's where I own up to paying $1200.00 last December for 2nd row tickets to the Sydney Entertainment centre show with Bon Jovi. That also got us a backstage tour, dinner and all the alcohol we could drink. It was an amazing show and I loved finally getting that front row (ish) experience, but i'd not pay for that again. Enough is enough, I'd rather go and see Nickelback (GA $132.00) or Pink
Britney Spears new show in Vegas actually beats all these: $2500 for a meet & greet! And all of them have sold out... crazy! Her show is amazing though, I'd love to see it. Still an amazing performer.
