Michael Buble wants concerts to be for "everyone"

Feature by Cover Media | 21 Nov 2009

Michael Buble doesn’t want his concerts to be full of “old, rich people”.

The jazz singer ensures there are cheap tickets available for all of his shows because he doesn’t want to be stuck with a stuffy audience. He is also passionate about letting all of his fans see him live, whether they are millionaires or unemployed.

“I’m touring next year and there'll be expensive tickets and cheap tickets,” the 34-year-old Canadian crooner said. “I don't want my concerts to be full of rich old people. They can come, too, but I want my show to be for everyone. Everyone who spends their hard-earned money on my CDs should be able to afford to come to my show.”

But fans who are expecting to hear their idol sing live will be disappointed. Michael has confirmed he mimes every concert he performs. “I'm the Milli Vanilli of jazz,” he told Australia’s Herald Sun newspaper. “I lip-synch all my concerts.”
