on Jun 28, 2023
Madonna was rushed to the hospital after being found unresponsive on Saturday (June 24), according to multiple reports.
The 64-year old “Vogue” singer was reportedly intubated for at least one night, but is now awake and recovering.
In a post made to social media Wednesday, her manager, Guy Oseary wrote that the singer was hospitalized for several days due to a serious bacterial infection. Oseary stated that while a full recovery is expected, Madonna: The Celebration Tour has been indefinitely postponed.
“Her health is improving, however she is still under medical care. A full recovery is expected,” Oseary wrote. “At this time we will need to pause all commitments, which include the tour. We will share more details with you as soon as we have them, including a new start date for the tour and for rescheduling shows.”

The Madonna: The Celebration Tour was set to kick off in Vancouver on July 15.
The tour was scheduled to take the Material Girl through North America and Europe with 84 performances over the course of six months. More than half of those dates sold out.
The tour was to be a celebration of the singer’s four-decades-long career, and she was to perform some of her biggest hits from her 1983 self-titled debut through her 2019 album, “Madame X.”
Madonna posted to social media just four days before her hospitalization. The post appeared to include a series of photos from her tour rehearsal and a caption that read, “The Calm Before The Storm…”

Madonna rose to fame in 1983 with the release of her self-titled debut album. She has since sold more than 300 million albums, making her the best-selling female recording artist of all time.
Madonna headlined the Super Bowl XLVI halftime show in 2012 in Indianapolis, Indiana. With the help of Cirque Du Soleil and special guest artists, the show became the most-watched Super Bowl halftime show in history with 114 million viewers.
