You mean the $$$ was good or not so good?

You're confusing 2 different situations. The Jonas Brothers opened for her on TBDTour. She was billed as a "special guest" opener for the Backstreet Boys on their 2014 tour. I'm guessing the reason she agreed to do it is because she otherwise couldn't do a solo tour in the US because the demand wasn't there. She skipped the US completely on the Black Star Tour likely due to low album sales and AL did even worse, so I think unless she had played smaller venues, a solo US tour would have flopped miserably. This was basically the only way she could tour the US.

Confused? 🤔. Call it what you want, she came on first then they finished the show. Despite what you want to call it the result is the same. And I think it weakened her brand, period.

Jonas Brothers opened for her in Europe, she opened for them in the US. And she did a lot of other things that era that could've weakened her brand more than that, including the cancellation of a concert in Spain (that I was attending) without an explanation on her part.

That's ancient history Jack. 👴🏼 😅 She could get away with that then. But thanks, I didn't know she open for others in Europe! Did you catch any shows then?

I wasn't aware she had ever opened for the Jonas Brothers. I know that they were one of her openers on The Best Damn Tour, but I wasn't aware she was a "special guest" opener on their Burnin' Up Tour.
Other acts they included were Demi Lovato and Taylor Swift, and it certainly didn't "weaken" their brand. And I don't think it weakened Avril's either. By the time she released TBDT her music was already starting to appeal more to young kids (more than her first 2 albums I guess) because of the upbeat music, the bright colors, the sparkles and glitter, etc. If you look in the audience at her shows during that era, there are a LOT of children in the audience. That was why she had artists like Demi and the Jo Bros open for her on her tour because they shared the same audience at that point, and likely also why she opened for the Jo Bros on their tour because they want to get artists who have similar music, who share a similar audience. If anything, playing to a crowd of kids probably helped her because they are the ones who buy the music and get their parents to spend loads of money on stuff. Don't see how that would "weaken" her "brand" at all when she was already heading in that direction anyway.

Well like you said Bogo, we are all entitled to our opinions and that is mine. We shouldn't argue Bogo, like you said. 😇🤣

"Ancient history" that some of you had already brought up. And she didn't open for anyone, you must have misread/misunderstood what I said. No, I did not catch any show that tour, that was the one I was planning to attend.

Sorry Jack, yes, I read that wrong. Sorry you missed the show but is that the one in Madrid that got poor reviews?
