I'm pretty sure the literal definition of rock bottom is performing in front of 40 people in a 90,000 seat venue

R&B singer Brandy had been looking forward to playing to a 90,000-capacity arena in South Africa but was reportedly left sulking after just 40 people turned up.  
The star had been booked to appear at the First National Bank Stadium in Johannesburg on Saturday as part of the celebrations of Nelson Mandela Sport and Culture Day, which included soccer and rugby games as well as live music.   
However, Brandy was left playing to a tiny crowd of around 40 people in the 90,000-capacity arena after taking to the stage at the end of the event, and she reportedly performed just two songs before walking off. Reports suggest Brandy's set was not properly advertised.

Brandy finally answered the age old question, "if a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?" The answer may be yes, but it makes a painfully awful sound. 

I'm sorry Brandy, is 40 people not enough for you? Because I have news flash, that sounds about right to me. You know how many people people read my blog? Zero. And do I pack up and stop writing. Fuck no. Because it's my hope that someone reads it and gets me out of corporate America hell.  So guess what, you get paid to be there if there's 40 people of 90,000. Suck it and be grateful you found a place in this world where 40 people want to hear the shit that comes out of your mouth.
