This isn’t Madonna’s first health problem in recent years. Following an accident suffered during her Madame X tour, she underwent hip replacement surgery in late 2020.

The tour was scheduled to include 35 dates in North America and Europe, allowing her to showcase her enormous catalog of songs from her four-decade career. However, due to the current state of affairs, all obligations have been put on hold until further notice.
The Grammy-winning artist has been active on social media, even just days before her hospitalization. She shared a proud moment of her twin daughters’ graduation from elementary school, emphasizing her dedication to both her family and her career.
During her Madame X Presents: Madame Xtra Q&A special in 2021, the music icon opened up about the painful surgery.
“Let me be really honest with you—I used to be, like, a fitness/workout maniac,” she said at the time. “You probably know that, right? … During my [2019 Madame X] tour—I don’t know if you’ve noticed it, but I’m limping a lot—I was in more pain than I’ve ever been in in my life. I’m a bionic woman—I had hip replacement surgery.
“So, how do I stay in shape? It’s all in your head. It’s called will; it’s called no one’s going to stop me; and how I stay in shape is no one’s going to stop me. And how I stay in shape is that I don’t believe in limitations,” Madonna added.
The Celebration Tour is a significant undertaking for Madonna, marking a global tour encompassing 43 cities and spanning several months. The tour is a celebration of her music as well as a tribute to New York, where her musical journey began.It was intended to be an unforgettable event for fans all around the world.
