Madonna's Sticky & Sweet world tour will have grossed an estimated $282million when it concludes later this month, making it the biggest ever by a solo artist.
Promoter Live Nation says the 28-date trip across the US grossed $91.5million thanks to 550,000 ticket sales.
The European leg, which featured just two performances in the UK, made an estimated $207.5million.
Madonna currently holds the record for the biggest selling tour by a solo artist with her 2006 Confessions tour, which made a total of $193.million.
Her current tour, which supports the singer's latest album 'Hard Candy', ends with a three night residency in Sao Paulo, beginning December 18th.
Madonna has continued on the tour despite her high profile divorce from film director Guy Ritchie last month.
