I think there was a lot of skittishness in the economy; people were very wary about non-essential spends.” Big names couldn’t draw big enough crowds. Even four-time Grammy winner Christina Aguilera had to cancel her entire summer tour. The slump caused management companies for major artists to rethink their strategy to try to lure fans back.
