The DailyMail has revealed that Madonna’s management team held an emergency Zoom meeting last Sunday amid fears she may not survive the bacterial infection.
The group, made up of several people who had worked with Madonna in the past, were devastated to learn that she was found unconscious in New York on Saturday and taken to intensive care, where she was intubated overnight.
They then made the difficult decision to postpone his highly anticipated 40th anniversary tour.
The tickets for the 35 dates that were to follow from Vancouver to Las Vegas via all the major cities of North America (Los Angeles, New York, Houston, Chicago, Toronto, Montreal…) had almost all been sold from last January.
The “Celebration Tour” was then due to cross the Atlantic in October for concerts in London, Paris, Berlin, Barcelona and Amsterdam for a final show on December 1.
On Wednesday, Oseary announced that she needed time to recover.
The DailyMail has learned that this medical event represents a wake-up call for the 64-year-old star who has gone to great lengths to prepare for the long-awaited tour.
Madonna Louise Ciccone, born in August 1958 in Michigan, to parents of Italian and French-Canadian origins, began her career as a dancer, author, composer and singer in the late 1970s in New York, with 35 dollars in her pocket.

Her career as a producer, actress and film director has made her one of the most influential and wealthy artists and businesswomen on the planet for 40 years.
