Following the terrorist attacks that happened in Paris, in which 130 people died, Madonna admitted she was confronted with a difficult decision about whether she should continue the Europe leg of her world tour. "I feel torn," she said, adding "Like why am I up here dancing and have fun when people are crying over the loss of their loves ones? However, that is exactly what these people want to do…They want to silence us. And we won’t let them."
