Madonna is preparing to give a huge free concert on Copacabana Beach at the end of her world tour

The Queen of Pop concludes her “Celebration Tour” on Saturday, with the most famous concert of her career, on the most beautiful stage in the world, the Brazilian Copacabana Beach, in Rio de Janeiro. Producers expect at least 1.5 million spectators.

And here is an event in its entirety, which turns the city of Rio de Janeiro upside down. On the occasion of the 40th anniversary of her artistic career and the end of a world tour entitled “The Celebration Tour,” Madonna will perform a huge, free concert on Saturday, May 4, on the legendary Copacabana Beach in Brazil.

Madonna, whose real name is Veronica Louise Ciccone, chose as her stage name the maiden name of her mother, who died when she was 5 years old from breast cancer. The scar of her childhood, the absence of a parent, served as fertile ground for her anger, which she lived and conquered, and her dream came true: not to be a singer, but rather a singing star. She even declared that she would only be happy the day she became famous like God, and it’s true that we were not far from that at one point.

For this occasion, the legendary Copacabana Palace hotel was connected by a pedestrian bridge to the beach, where a huge 800 square meter stage was crowned for several days. In the face of this spectacle, organizers plan to gather up to 1.5 million spectators, at least as many as the Rolling Stones saw in 2006.

40 years of work, many controversies

Since her first appearance, the star has not been afraid of controversy or contradictions. The “Material Girl”, the mysterious and scandalous Madonna, condemned the ostracism of AIDS patients, but the Vatican condemned her above all for blasphemy, after she danced in front of flaming crosses and kissed a statue of a black man. Saint, for the music video for the song “Like au Pray”.

In 1987, Madonna emerged from a huge cake while singing “like a Virgin”She wears a wedding dress and a belt on which one can read “Boy’s toy”,toy boy. She’s strong, ambitious, and not afraid to look like a bitch, which is the result, she says “His good and bad choices”. Perhaps his strength was that he was never afraid to make a mistake, to fall, or, if he was afraid, to never show it. And if it is often said that it was so “I finish”If today we no longer really know what you sing, nor what you look like, in the end it doesn’t matter, as long as the audience is there.
