Madonna is conducting a world tour called MDNA. This is the ninth tour of the famous singer, they started on May 31, 2012 in Israel. Madonna will give 76 concerts around the world. She still holds the title of Most Successful Touring Artist. The cult pop diva did not ignore Russia as well.
Madonna held the second concert as part of the MDNA tour in Russia in St. Petersburg on August 9, 2012. The singer took the stage at about 22:30, delaying for an hour. For the audience, this did not come as a big surprise, since there was a similar pause before the performance in Moscow. Despite the fact that it took so long to wait for the start of the concert, the audience enthusiastically greeted the pop diva.
Madonna's performance in Russia was not without a number of scandals. Back in Moscow, the Union of Orthodox Banner Bearers burned a portrait of a world star for supporting the girls from Pussy Riot. Immediately in St. Petersburg, various protests began against the singer's performance in the city and in general against her presence in Russia.
Tickets for Madonna's concert have an inscription that it is recommended to watch the show for people who have reached the age of 18. The pop diva, during her performance in St. Petersburg, asked all viewers and residents of Russia to be more tolerant of people with non-traditional sexual orientation. The next day, representatives of some public organizations in St. Petersburg said that Madonna violated the law prohibiting the promotion of homosexual relationships among children. The organizers of the show responded that according to the recommendations, there should not be underage viewers on tickets for the show.
In her statement, the singer only expressed her point of view, outlined her position, which did not spoil her beautiful and bright performance. The audience agreed that so far no one can compare with Madonna in terms of the quality and variety of the show. The pop diva's concerts have always been provocative, and this tour was no exception.
The song Girl Gone Wild opened the show. The singer, surrounded by members of her dance group dressed as monks, symbolically shot at the screen with the image of the temple, which is shattered into thousands of fragments. The group then threw off their robes and Madonna joined them in the dance.
The weapon theme continued in the next issue. The pop diva "shot" the dance-parterre from a revolver, performing the song of the same name, Revolver. All the enchanting action smoothly flowed into the Paradise hotel, where the singer drank whiskey and defended herself from the villains to the sounds of the Gang Bang composition.
In the next part of the show, Madonna became a victim of the ancient worshipers who wanted to sacrifice her. The pop diva impressed the audience with her magnificent form, fitness, flexibility, strength and the wonders of acrobatics. She quickly climbed the ropes, fleeing the cruel pagans. At this time, her super-hits Hung Up and Papa Don't Preach sounded.
Madonna changed outfits several times, appearing before the public in different images. Black latex jumpsuit, perky red and white majorette uniform, elegant dress and other stunning costumes beautifully outlined the figure of the singer.
The new composition Give Me All Your Luvin 'is presented as an enchanting parade. Another song - Open Your Heart - is performed together with the trio of French percussion musicians Kalakan. In Madonna's show, the audience was amazed by everything - fantastic scenery, costumes, sound, lighting and, of course, the pop diva herself.
