Bad Bunny Returns To Artist Power Index Following Tour Launch; Lady Gaga, Radiohead, Chris Brown Score Top Chart Rankings

Bad Bunny appears on the Artist Power Index for the first time in seven weeks, entering the lineup at No. 4 following the launch of the stadium tour supporting Debí Tirar Más Fotos, his latest studio album that bowed in January and just won Album of the Year at the Latin Grammy Awards. The Puerto Rican rapper kicked off his tour with a two-show opener, Nov. 21-22, in the Dominican Republic at Santo Domingo’s Estadio Olímpico Félix Sánchez.

It was his first tour appearance in the country since playing two shows at the same stadium in October of 2022 during “World’s Hottest Tour,” his first all-stadium trek. At those shows he sold 79,032 tickets and grossed over $7.8 million. And on an earlier tour, 2019’s “X 100pre,” he played the baseball venue in Santo Domingo, Estadio Quisqueya, and performed for 30,288 fans.

Following its opening shows, the “Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour” will stop at two more Latin American stadiums in December, beginning with a two-night stint in San José, Costa Rica at Estadio Nacional, Dec. 5-6. Then, Estadio GNP Seguros in Mexico City will host the tour for a massive eight-show run beginning Dec. 10.

But the bulk of the dates on the Bad Bunny tour are slated for 2026 with an early start on Jan. 9. A string of multiple-show events in South America will come first, followed by appearances in Australia and Japan, while a European leg will run from May through July. Based on what is currently booked, the tour’s largest engagement will occur in Spain next summer with 10 stadium shows scheduled at Madrid’s Riyadh Air Metropolitano.

Hanging on to No. 1 on the Artist Power Index is Lady Gaga who has owned the chart’s highest ranking since Oct. 10. Box-office totals have now been reported from her world tour’s European leg that began in London in late September. From 24 concerts, she grossed over $65.6 million and sold a total of 368,145 tickets at 10 arenas on the continent. The European finale was a four-night stint at Accor Arena in Paris with 61,815 tickets sold for a $10.5 million box-office haul.

Since launching “The Mayhem Ball” on July 16 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Lady Gaga has racked up more than $168 million in grosses with almost three quarters of a million tickets sold at 51 performances. Her highest grossing engagement on the tour so far was a four-night run at Madison Square Garden in New Nork that earned $17.4 million from 54,390 sold seats, Aug. 22-27.

On LIVE75, Radiohead moves up one position to score the No. 1 ranking based on ticket sales from the opening run of shows on the band’s current tour through Europe. Arenas in five cities are booked on the trek that began at Movistar Arena in Madrid, Spain, Nov. 4-8. From four concerts at that venue, the band grossed $12.2 million and moved 68,737 tickets, averaging 17,184 per concert. That earns the top ranking, while the $3.05 million gross average scores “Heavy Hitter” status as the highest gross per show of any headliner on the chart.Global Concert Pulse features Chris Brown with a move to No. 1 after earning the second ranking on the four previous weekly charts. The rapper averaged $7.3 million per show based on grosses from 18 stadium concerts during the past three months to score the top ranking. The shows were the final performances on his “Breezy Bowl XX” tour that wrapped on Oct. 16 following a four-month run. The top gross on his 2025 tour was recorded at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C., a $20.7 million take from 121,192 sold tickets, Oct. 5-9.
