There’s an Instagram post with Rocco in London, if she was that bad, I don’t think he would have left but Lola hasn’t posted anything in a while.
I hope she’s okay.
I just can’t stand Guy.

I wish her a full recovery and that she's getting good advice, care and enough time to rest well.
I also feel there must be a lot going on that hasn't been communicated. Hope nothing related to opioids. After the hip surgery and other plastic surgeries, it wouldn't be a surprise, but I really hope that is NOT the issue.
I know she's a public figure and all, but it's not that they have an OBLIGATION to disclose all personal matters.
For purposes of the tour, I do think they need to communicate the basics of their plan for business partners and customers to know. But if they haven't done it yet, it must be because all is still very uncertain.

Wow. This is all surreal and scary. I would say that the Madonna that the world knows is not into drugs, but then again, look at Michael and Prince. Opioids are no joke, but I pray that she is OK. If the tour has to be cancelled so that she can take proper care of herself, then so be it. The show must not ALWAYS go on.

I hope her team releases an official statement soon. Global News: globalnews.ca/news/9815506/mado ... confusion/ “Promoter Live Nation said in an email to Global News that as of Thursday, all dates on the tour are postponed. Once a new date is announced, or if new dates aren’t announced within 60 days, fans will be able to request a refund, the company said.” |

Within 60 days? The tour starts next week. My show isn't until August 20 and I've been keeping an eye out for any updates. It looked like the news was positive (in here at least, since this is my main news source lol) but still nothing official.
Beyond all that, I hope she's okay, whether the tour gets postponed/cancelled or not. Madonna has always been a presence for as long as I've been alive. She's always been unstoppable and invincible. I hope whatever is going on is taken care of.

Given how uncertain things might be, it's understandable that they cannot really make a statement, but then everyone and the media runs wild with their own version of events.
Re-scheduling/postponing an entire world tour where the star of the show was literally in the hospital just two weeks ago with such a serious condition is going to be extremely challenging.

When the first edition of Finally Enough Live box set came out i remember fans pointing out a mistake in the booklet. Can’t recall what it was, some piece of information was wrong I think? I don’t think it was just a typo. I wonder if whatever it was it was fixed for this new Rainbow edition.

Looks like no tour announcement today.
Madonna is on the UK charts this week:
The Weekend's Popular is #17 on the UK singles chart.
The Rainbow Edition release of Finally Enough Love causes the album to re-enter the album chart at #27.

Awesome, Juanca!
You know I don’t have a turntable yet either!! Ha ha. Once the house remodeling is done, I will get finally one.
I do have a lot of original Madonna 12” singles in boxes and some other albums I had bought in the 80s.

how can there be still no tour announcement when it literally starts next weekend? Next weekend is going to be a bloodbath in the media.

I will say it again, Guy Oseary is one of the worst. It seems like they just don’t give a fuck about people that have supported her all these years. Or she’s very serious and they don’t know what the fuck is going to happen. Fuck him. |

Well there is the story of how Madonna gave him his first job. But I’ve always felt the implication is that she thought she could get someone for cheap lol.

I do have a lot of original Madonna 12” singles in boxes and some other albums I had bought in the 80s. Hehehe A few years ago I inherited a few LPs from a friend who lived in DC and moved back to Peru, but I haven’t played them yet lol And I’m a bit afraid of bringing 45s and 33s from my house in Peru to the US. Plus that’d mean splitting records with my brother… we’ll see… In any case, I’m also with budget constraints after house work -and after buying the Madonna tickets! But hopefully a nice turntable will be my Christmas self present :) |

Said this elsewhere:
When this all happened, Guy O.'s statement was: “At this time we will need to pause all commitments, which includes the tour. We will share more details with you soon as we have them, including a new start date for the tour and for rescheduled shows." Didn't we all take that to mean, that, at the very least, the opening round of shows (and beyond) were not happening? At that point, ticket buyers for those shows and beyond should have taken action, if they made plans.
I'd just ignore Ticketmaster, etc. and what it has or hasn't done. That is pretty messy, I agree. But, it's not like this wasn't reported on. Potential new ticket buyers should be in the know and not purchase tickets to an uncertain tour.

At the very least, tho, her team could come forward with an updated statement to ease the concern of fans and calm the rampant speculation. You'd think there'd be a clearer picture of what is actually happening with her health by now.

That doesn't give him the freeway to not say anything ever again. It's the most unprofessional and ridiculous situation ever. His career is over. I'm not blaming Madonna, i'm blaming Guy and her whole team for an utter disaster. |

Her recovery and health are definitely the priority but I think her team just doesn’t quite appreciate us as fans especially for those who have tickets. Her personal health can be private and we don’t need to know the details but we are left alone in the dark in a really scary time. Some kind of an official update would be appreciative and appropriate.

These Madonna Films Still Hold Up Today BY PHILANA MARIE BOLES PUBLISHED 19 HOURS AGO movieweb.com/madonna-films-still-hold-up-today/With over 335 million records sold, the best-selling female artist of all time also had at least two timeless acting performances. “Eva Peron's life was a balance of equal amounts of controversy and respect. In some ways, the two women had a lot in common, and perhaps that is why Madonna felt so driven to take on the role. Like Peron, Madonna's name will always be synonymous with unabashedly flawed greatness. Some women and some women's performances deserve to be acknowledged as simply timeless.” |

Her arse is normal? Could that be the reason for the infection.

Her arse is normal? Could that be the reason for the infection. Well… I’m pretty ignorant about that topic, but to be honest a few days back I thought “with all the hardcore workouts and choreographies she’s doing and I guess many times on her butt, what if the butt implants popped and that caused an infection???”. According to what I read, butt implants are not like breast implants that can burst. A different material is used” |
