Beyoncé’s “Cowboy Carter” Tour and Perfume Launch Spark Fan Outcry Over High Prices
Pop superstar Beyoncé is facing a wave of criticism from fans regarding the high cost of both her “Cowboy Carter” tour tickets and her newly released perfume, Ce Lumiere. The backlash comes as many fans express their disappointment and frustration over what they perceive as exorbitant pricing.
The $160 price tag on Ce Lumiere has triggered a flood of comments on social media. Fans have jokingly pleaded poverty, with remarks such as, “The people are stealing eggs Beyoncé!
We don’t have anything left to give,” and “My mom said we have perfume at home.” Others have pointedly stated, “The only person that can afford Beyoncé right now is Beyoncé.”
The high perfume price follows earlier controversy surrounding the “Cowboy Carter” tour ticket costs, with fans calling the prices “outrageous,” “unrealistic,” and “greedy.” Some fans expressed their intentions to skip the live shows altogether, opting to wait for a DVD release rather than pay the hefty ticket prices.
The comments highlight a growing concern among some fans about the affordability of experiencing Beyoncé’s work.
