‘On The Run’ Tour Ticket Prices Affected By Jay Z, Solange Elevator Fight; Drop By 13.5%

The "On the Run" tour headlined by power couple Jay Z and Beyonce has been affected by the Jay Z, Solange elevator fight as its tickets' prices dropped by 13.5%.

A report made by TiqIQ and published in Forbes revealed that since the infamous elevator video was released via TMZ, the ticket price for Beyonce and Jay Z's upcoming "On the Run" tour has dropped on the secondary market. The tour's ticket price was at $306.22 prior to the video's release. Back then, it was perceived to be one of the industry's most costly.

After the Jay Z, Solange elevator fight video leaked, tickets now only cost $264.73. It's still part of the top five most expensive for the summer tours but it is now behind Justin Timberlake's and Paul Mc Cartney's.

The drop in it's ticket price is just one of the most recent controversy surrounding Beyonce and Jay Z's "On the Run" tour. A few days back, the music power couple faced online backlash when their tour's trailer debuted for apparently having an overrun of cameos from their famous friends.

New York Post noted that actors Sean Penn, Don Cheadle, Blake Lively and Jake Gyllenhaal all made appearances in less than four minutes.

The publication implied that the timeliness of the video's release seemed a diversionary tactic to take away the media attention from the Jay Z, Solange elevator fight video.

Meanwhile, the family has already said their piece regarding the controversy.

A statement made by Beyonce was made public last week through the Associated Press stating in part: "As a result of the public release of the elevator security footage from Monday, May 5th, there has been a great deal of speculation about what triggered the unfortunate incident. But the most important thing is that our family has worked through it. Jay and Solange each assume their share of responsibility for what has occurred."
