Madonna's "Celebration" tour in London kicks off to lateness, sound glitches & the show being cut short...

Over the weekend, Madonna kicked off her "Celebration" world tour at London’s O2 Arena. Four months after an infection sent the superstar to the ICU and delayed her tour, Madge's concert series launched to a very interesting start. There was a serious glitch with the sound so she had to stop the show and wait for it to get fixed. Fans were also fuming because she was late. Due to being late, she ended her concert FOUR songs early because of the arena's curfew. She could easily have paid the curfew cost if she ran past 11pm but chose not to take accountability for her lateness. After the rain delayed Beyoncé's "Renaissance" world tour show, she paid $100K to extend Metro hours, ensuring fans could safely reach home. It's those little things that fans appreciate if it means their concert experience remains unaffected. Madge, who also attended Bey's "Renaissance" show with her daughters, saw how Bey's 11-year-old daughter Blue Ivy became the star attraction. Well, Madge had her very own daughter Estere voguing and dancing on her stage causing people to accuse her of over sexualising an 11-year-old. They argue that Blue's stage presence and costumes were much more fun and age appropriate. 

Madonna is a legend and will forever be a legend. However, she seemed to be using certain distractions to deflect from her lack of energy on stage. She’s moving like a 65-year-old woman, which is fine... because she is 65. But using all six of her children and topless dancers should never serve as placeholders just because those past dancing abilities have become somewhat restricted. Four decades of hits should be enough for fans to appreciate and "celebrate" the woman herself regardless.

    First off Madonna always brings her kids out to perform on tour since 2008 this is nothing new…her daughter was always been into vogue and there’s nothing sexual bout her moves. Perception can be subjective and imma leave it there.

      The woman had hip replacement and a knee injury since she announce the tour months after all those tickets sold out. Madonna still came out for her fans and they enjoyed the show as she still interact with her fans. Beyoncé tour was kinda the same where dancers carried most of the tour as she didn’t go hard as usual but she served production just like her blueprint Madonna enough said.
