The Celebration Tour. The 64-year-old music legend showcased her timeless beauty and captivating stage presence in the video, leaving fans eager to join the celebration.

She became the first woman since Cher to have a single open on the Billboard Hot 100 in five different decades. Billboard acknowledged the achievement, highlighting Madonna and Cher as the only female artists to accomplish this feat.
Madonna's latest Hot 100 single, Popular, is a collaboration with Playboy Carti and The Weeknd for the latter's highly anticipated show, The Idol. The series, featuring a star-studded cast led by The Weeknd and Lily-Rose Depp, follows a pop star entangled in the clutches of a nightclub owner who leads a cult.
Popular encompasses biting lyrics about the destructive pursuit of fame, exploring themes of selling one's soul and resorting to extreme measures to attain success.
Not one to shy away from addressing criticism, Madonna has recently faced scrutiny regarding her use of plastic surgery. In response, she took to social media to defend herself against ageism and misogyny.
"Many people chose to only talk about close-up photos of me taken with a long lens camera by a press photographer that would distort anyone's face!" she passionately expressed. "Once again, I am caught in the glare of ageism and misogyny that permeates the world we live in," she added, refusing to apologize for her creative choices or her appearance.
In a subsequent social media post, Madonna shared a fresh-faced photo, playfully referring to the swelling caused by surgery. Her fans showered her with compliments, applauding her timeless beauty and authenticity.
Amidst the positive response, some expressed concern about the timing of the surgery, questioning whether she had sufficient time to recuperate before public appearances.
The Celebration Tour promises to be a remarkable journey through Madonna's artistic evolution over four decades, paying tribute to the city of New York, where her illustrious music career began.
