Everybody hates Ticketmaster. In 2022, hundreds of fans were denied entry into a Bad Bunny show in Mexico City after being told that their legitimate tickets were fraudulent despite being bought through Ticketmaster's platform. A similar trouble transpired last night at RAYE's concert at Paris' Accor Arena on Sunday (Feb. 15), and she made a statement about it today.
"I am completely devastated for the 65 ticket holders who were turned down from entering our Paris show on Sunday night. This is completely unacceptable and wrong," the singer began in a post to social media, continuing:
I have been told this was a system error at Ticketmaster, meaning 65 tickets were not fully validated when they were purchased, this was outside of anything I could control and I feel saddened and let down.
I know everyone affected was refunded and given a voucher from Ticketmaster, but I'd like to offer all of these 65 people who didn't get in to the show complimentary tickets to any Raye future show of their choice and a signed vinyl, you will contacted shortly about this.
I know this doesn't even remotely make up for this mess, but it's all I can think of in this moment to soften the blow.My deepest apologies to those of you affected.
Love Raye.
Even Kid Rock hates Ticketmaster, and testified against them and Live Nation at a Senate hearing last month. In other RAYE news, her sister Absolutely released a new single today called "Paracosm."
