When it comes to Madonna‘s Club Confessions dance party at The Abbey in West Hollywood, California, over the weekend, you just had to be there. And if you weren’t, let the Billboard Pop Shop Podcast take you inside.
On the new episode, Katie & Keith are reliving their Saturday night out, when Madonna previewed unheard tracks from Confessions II, the July 3 sequel to her 2005 classic dance album Confessions on a Dance Floor. Stuart Price — the producer behind both Confessions projects — was the night’s final DJ, and Madonna joined him for a surprise appearance behind the booth at the famed gay bar.
Listen to their full conversation below:
Also on the show, we’ve got chart news on how Olivia Rodrigo’s “Drop Dead” debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 songs chart, how Ella Langley’s “Dandelion” spends a second week atop the Billboard 200 albums chart, while Olivia Dean collects a second No. 1 on the Pop Airplay chart with “So Easy (To Fall In Love).” Plus, the Michael Jackson biopic Michael set box-office records in its opening weekend, becoming the biggest U.S. debut ever for a music biopic.
