Madonna reminded in earnest why she is the Queen of Pop at the electrifying launch of ‘The Celebration World Tour.’
The slick production set sail at London’s O2 Arena and served as the first of six sold-out shows at the iconic venue.
Already one of the year’s most eagerly awaited spectacles, the global trek was dramatically postponed early this summer after the singer battled sudden health issues.
As has been the reality of her near five-decade spell in the spotlight, Madge bounced back and delivered a seismic show that left fans in awe.
True to form, the diva dazzled with state-of-the-art staging and illuminated the O2 with her colossal catalog of classics including ‘Holiday,’ ‘Open Your Heart to Me,’ ‘Ray of Light,’ and ‘Vogue.’ The latter of which morphed into a ballroom extravaganza – helmed by the tour’s MC, Bob the Drag Queen.
The megastar also incorporated rare gems and seldom performed numbers such as ‘Die Another Day’ and cuts from ‘Erotica.’
Amidst the army of dancers and creatives aboard the must-see show were Madonna’s children – Lourdes, David, Mercy James, and Estere.
