R&B group Day 26 are so broke that they are charging their fans a whopping $25 to take photos with the group, this according to a radio listener who emailed the Wendy Williams Experience today.
I can’t recall another group raping charging their fans for pictures on top of the ridiculous ticket prices. Are Sean Combs and MTV paying these boys or stealing their money? Bad Boy’s PR firm needs to get on top of this because it could be damaging to their manufactured image.
The listener didn’t say if any fans paid the $25 for a picture with the group.
Day 26 days of fame are number 10.9.8.
now, sandra you know puffy writes those contracts by hand himself….
Contract: I get 99.9% of your money
I own you, your name, your mama & your daddy
All promotional items, t-shirts, doo-rags, will be sold under seanjohn.com….LLC.
Why I am I NOT surprised?! They probably when got a lil cheesy advance from Diddy. He probably has them in an iron clad contract — 5+ albums, while he gets all the royalties and monies from their public appearances. Stupid!!!! Guess they didn’t do their homework on Diddy.
excuse the “when” . .scratch that.
Tell em brwnsugga4you, tell em! Whoever signs with Diddy is an ass unless they are dating him.. Even then they are still an ass cause he is going publicly humiliate them by dating numerous other woman.. Making the band is for idiots! They should know better when none of the bands on making of the band has a record out not even a single.. Sooo… Look @ what puff did to 112..
Day 26 has fans? Why?
Additionally, Sandra do you really think Bad Boys PR firm really cares . . I am sure they are getting some of that cheese too.
Brwnsugga, corner til tmw morning!!!!

and Faith, Maze, Baz, Black Rob, remember him, he’s doing time for an armed robbery, Mario Winans, and the list goes on and on . . Mary was the only one that has been successful after cutting ties with him.
woops, Baz = Babs. . .stupid ass left the band and went solo under Bad Boy. .guess it really didn’t matter . .she was bound to lose either way.
Hmmm. I would not pay $5.00 to take a picture with them but I think I paid $15.00 or $20.00 to take a picture with Ginuwine.

~~~~i know i’m going…nose to the wall…i almost made it til friday…:(~~~~
funny. i’ll be honest, at FSO 1996 lefteye was doing the same thing; charging people to take a picture with her. I just thought that’s what celebrities did.
sorry. For Sisters Only here in Atlanta…
WOW!!! I wish I would pay $25 bucks to take a pic with them!!! I guess they are eating their words when they told Wendy Williams, Diddy wasn’t gonna stick ’em for their paper.
Diddy needs to stop…I can’t forget how The Lox had to threaten to murk his azz just to get outta contract. One day someone gonna lose it on Diddy…
I hope that is not true. That would be terrible. I have seen artists charge people to take pictures before I have even seen another blog, maybe this one, complain about it in the past in regard to other artists, so Day 26 is not the first. My problem is the price.
Awww that’s too bad, I like them. Although I cant recall hearing their song on the radio. Except for the time they were in SF, CA at a major radio station 106KMEL, come to think of it, I dont think KMEL plays Danity Kane either. Unless they play it at a time I dont listen to the radio. I know I hear the SAME DAYUM songs everytime I listen to the radio though.
This is more common then you think Sandra. Especially, when the concert/play is in a small venue, this practice is very familiar. KC & JoJo was doing the same thing when they were on tour with a play a while back. But as it has been stated before, concert tickets are too damn high, now days, to pay an additional $25 for a picture. But some people will.
lol its those damn gas prices…its making folks get to the nitty gritty
Ok … So how much money was made on the pics…. 125.00 TOPS … and on a side note … When I went to see Steven Harvey here in Atl … Monique (yuck) opened for him .. after the show She charged 20.00 if folk wanted to take pics with her …
at the Mary J Blige/ Jay Z concert I paid $15 to take a picture behind a fake backdrop…And $20 to take a pic with Avant..Sandra I think that is pretty much the norm
Who?
didnt Ne-Yo and Trey Songz have it out about Trey day charging fans for pics and autographs! thats a DAMn shame!
you don’t have to be broke to do that, it’s just extra money in their pockets sandra!
Beyonce Knowles and Destiny’s Child do something similar while on tour and last time I checked, Beyonce was far from broke. She sold fans what was referred to as a gold package that cost about $600 which includes getting to take a picture with her and like 10 other strangers. Same shit.

I remember that because me and my boy were the ones taking the polaroids!! Do you remember me? We made a nice piece of change that weekend!
That was the same weekend Tupac died. We all found out at the same time at FSO. Left Eye just kept on taking pictures.
Should be poking at the dunces who pay for pics….for those who do it, its business..bad business in my opinion but business…
DESTINY’S CHILD CHARGED FOR PICTURES ALSO…$30 A POP WHEN THEY HAD THE DCF TOUR!!!!
MARY’S DONE IT AND SO HAS MARIAH…WHY SUCH A FUSS OVER THEM? B/C THEY NEW ARTISTS???
Stars are always charging for photos!!!
I hope that they aren’t flat broke but then again they are signed to Bad Boy!!!
Dylan, from Making The Band 1, (where are they now?)…was one of the few people I can recall ever standing up to puffy!!,
