Madonna is in secret talks to celebrate her new album with a UK show.
The 67-year-old Queen of Pop – who will release her latest record Confessions II on July 3 – delighted fans in New York this week, when she put on a surprise performance for 50,000 fans in Times Square and she hopes to do something similar in the UK soon.
A source told The Sun: “Performing is everything to Madonna and she is going all out to make sure this era is one of her greatest.
“Her last run of shows were all about her legacy, but now she’s reinvigorated to be an innovator.
“She’s currently mulling over a number of live show options for a handful of dates. A full-scale world tour is not in the works.”
Madonna last performed at London’s O2 in October 2023 as part of her 81-date Celebration Tour.
Meanwhile, Madonna debuted her brand-new single Love Sensation during her surprise New York gig, before releasing it on streaming platforms hours later.
The performance, in partnership with the LGBTQ+ dating app Grindr, also marked the first time Madonna has performed new material from her upcoming album Confessions II.
Alongside Love Sensation, she treated the crowd to I Feel So Free and Bring Your Love, her Sabrina Carpenter duet, plus hits from Confessions on a Dance Floor including Hung Up, Get Together and I Love New York, which sent the crowd wild.
The entire show was streamed globally via Grindr’s first-ever livestream, with fans around the world joining the street-party atmosphere as Times Square became a full-scale rave.
Love Sensation has been building hype since April, when Madonna made a surprise appearance at a West Hollywood club and producer Stuart Price teased a snippet during his DJ set.
Madonna’s latest run of dance anthems is already dominating the charts. I Feel So Free has hit No.1 on Billboard’s Dance Airplay Chart, while Bring Your Love has just topped the UK Club Chart.
The Queen of Pop is on a mission to prove her point that the dance floor is well and truly alive.
After Charli xcx declared the “dancefloor is dead”, the Vogue hitmaker posted a series of disco-themed images on Instagram with a caption many fans saw as a direct clapback: “If your Dance Floor feels dead Maybe you’re playing the wrong music.”
