Forget like a virgin — more like a queen! Madonna not only lived to tell, she lived to laugh it off and recover like the pro that she is after taking a tumble on stage during her Sunday (Feb. 18) show at Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena.
In multiple fan-captured videos shared online, the Queen of Pop is performing her 1987 Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 “Open Your Heart” during her second night of the Celebration Tour in the Emerald City when her show hit a brief snag. While the seven-time Grammy winner sitting on a chair and singing to a camera, a male dancer in stiletto heels begins to tilt her seat back and pulls her along the stage while running. He suddenly slips and falls, taking Madonna down with him.
Ever the consummate professional, the superstar continues on, rolling over to keep singing her hit before smiling and audibly laughing off the fall.
The pop icon first announced her Celebration Tour in January 2023. The global trek celebrates her four decades of music, and was initially set to kick off in July that year. However, Madonna was hospitalized due to a “serious bacterial infection” over the summer, and was forced to postpone the tour. The delayed trek ultimately began with a series of sold-out shows at London’s O2 Arena, and is set to wrap in late April with five shows in Mexico City.
The Material Girl addressed her health scare during her Oct. 21 show in Belgium. “Less than four months ago, I was in a hospital and I was unconscious, and people were thinking, predicting that I might not make it,” she told fans at the concert. “It’s a f–king miracle that I’m here right now. My mother, god bless her, she must be watching over me. She said, ‘Girl, it’s not your time to go.’”
