The Kitty Bellerose Revue was the fifth concert tour and second all-stadium tour, launched in support of her seventh studio album, The Life & Death of Kitty Bellerose (2030). Following a complete media hiatus, Vinco surprise-released the album on January 25, with dates announced the next day. Visiting twelve cities and spanning fifty-six performances, it commenced on Saint-Denis, France, on July 20, 2030, and concluded in Tokyo, Japan, on December 15, 2030. The tour was notably the first to not visit Vinco's hometown of Indianapolis, Indiana.
Rehearsals commenced at Paris' Boulogne Studios for three months, before moving to London as the opening date approached. This tour was notably the last to feature Vinco’s original dancers and band members, who first debuted in 2017's Play: The Tour. Vinco collaborated with various French fashion houses to design costumes, each a fusion of a distinct era of Hollywood cinema and her own music career. Described as a celebration of the singer's career by several critics, the four-hour show chronicled the titular character’s journey, taking influence from the Golden Age of Hollywood and early movie musicals. The standard thirty-song setlist featured all sixteen tracks from The Life & Death of Kitty Bellerose, along with select hit singles and other songs from her catalogue, that explored themes of media scrutiny, stardom, sexuality, and sociopolitical issues.
Critics and audiences highly praised The Kitty Bellerose Revue for Vinco's stage presence and visual storytelling, as well as wardrobe, choreography, thematic depth, and film references. With a commercial revenue of $388.4 million, the tour became the tenth-highest grossing tour by a woman and the highest-grossing tour of 2030. Footage from the residency at Tokyo Dome was used for an HBO Max concert special, released on July 25, 2031. A week later, a digital live album was released, along with physical copies of The Life & Death of Kitty Bellerose.
Background
On January 25, 2030, after a complete media hiatus, Vinco surprise released her seventh studio album, The Life & Death of Kitty Bellerose, exclusively through digital platforms. On February 14, the singer announced her first tour in six years with twenty-six dates in Europe and the United States. Entitled The Kitty Bellerose Revue, the tour was her first to not partner with Live Nation Entertainment or selling tickets via Ticketmaster, both of which history of monopolization over the live music industry, ticket price inflation, and collusion with scalpers. Previously, the singer opted out of dynamic pricing for 2024's The Unexpected Tour and did the same when selling tickets exclusively via her website. A fan-verified presale took place on February 19, followed by general sales on February 22.
A week after the general sale, extra shows in London, Paris, New York, and Los Angeles were added to the itinerary. By the end of March, Vinco added a fourth show to both residences in Atlanta and Chicago, as well as a three-day stop in Toronto. On April 2, the tour was reportedly 90% sold out by the month's conclusion. On May 10, three more Toronto shows were added due to high demand, as was a four-date residency in Mexico City. On July 20, to celebrate the tour's opening date, Vinco announced fives shows in both Sydney and Tokyo.
On November 1, an accompanying visual album for The Life & Death of Kitty Bellerose, starring Vinco and Robert Pattinson, was released on HBO Max.
Development
French fashion houses Yves Saint Laurent, Chanel, Dior, Givenchy, Balenciaga, and Jean Paul Gaultier collaborated with Vinco to create custom wardrobe, each a fusion of Old Hollywood cinema and fashion and Vinco’s own album eras.
