Queen of Pop Madonna sent her fans into a royal frenzy of worry with sudden news she was postponing her highly anticipated ‘Celebration World Tour‘ to recover from sudden hospitalization after a bout with a ‘severe bacterial infection.’
Revealed via social media by her manager Guy Oseary on Wednesday (June 28), the singer-actress is said to be recuperating from a stint with emergency medical attention which is said to have occurred in New York over the weekend after she was found unresponsive.
While the specific details about her condition are vague and she is still under doctor’s care, Oseary emphasized in his statement that a full recovery is expected – a sentiment echoed by her longtime friend/actress Rosie O’Donnell.
Details inside.
Taking to social media Wednesday night, O’Donnell posted a photo of herself and Madge on the set of her EMMY-winning 90’s talk show, ‘The Rosie O’Donnell Show,’ with a simple yet optimistic caption.
“She’s feeling good,” Rosie shared alongside a thumbs up emoji.
That Instagram post came hours after ‘Daily Mail’ took to press with quotes from worried family members of the ‘Like a Prayer’ diva who claim they are praying the health scare makes the active 64-year-old slow down.
“For the past couple of days, no one really knew which direction this [infection] was going to turn, and her family was preparing for the worst…everyone believed that we may lose her,” the unidentified relative said before later continuing, “She thinks that she is still young…she also believes that she is invincible. She will put her career and her fame before her health until the day she is dead.”
The report about Madge’s health comes just weeks before the Pop diva was due to kick off an 84-date tour in Vancouver on July 15.
Oseary promised a revised tour itinerary will be announced in light of the news.
