Singer Madonna was hospitalized in the intensive care unit (ICU) after developing a serious bacterial infection on Saturday, her manager announced Wednesday.
Guy Oseary said Madonna’s health is improving, but she is still under medical care and is expected to make a full recovery. He did not provide any details about the type of infection or how long she is expected to be hospitalized.
Oseary also announced that Madonna’s upcoming The Celebration Tour, which was scheduled to begin July 15 in Vancouver, Canada, has been postponed. The tour was set to bring the 64-year-old pop icon to cities throughout North America, Europe, and the United Kingdom for 84 performances over the course of about six months. It is billed as a retrospective of Madonna’s four-decade career.
This will be Madonna’s first tour since the Madame X Tour concluded in 2020.
