The first few stops of Madonna's Celebration Tour were not perfect nights to remember for her fans.
Madonna finally kicked off her previously postponed Celebration Tour on Saturday, October 14, at the O2 Arena in London, England. The first two nights of the highly anticipated show, however, did not fully impress the concertgoers.
Madonna Left Celebration Tour Attendees Furious
The Celebration Tour continued at the venue on Sunday, October 15, during which Madonna arrived late.
As reported by Mirror, Madonna cut her show short and did not perform four of her greatest hits. The "Back That Up To The Beat" singer reportedly ended her set at 11 p.m. - 30 minutes later than the venue's 10:30 p.m. curfew.
Because Madonna arrived late, she missed performing her four songs: "Like A Virgin," "B---- I'm Madonna," "Holiday" and "Celebration."
Fans took to X and slammed Madonna for not giving back what the public paid for. Some also said that the show was only two songs short.
One said, "So @Madonna stitched every single person up tonight who paid top money to see her, Started an hour late No encore and good 6/7 songs missing and just fucked off at the end! Total lack of respect for paying public."
"Madonna's second show in London ended two songs earlier, because this time she was more than one hour late," another wrote. "They also showed up screens for getting home as a banner for the last 30 minutes of the show. Kind of sad! She still used to be late!!!"
"Is she still doing the same old shit? Turning up late and doing three quarters of a show. Unforgivable. Glad I didn't waste my money," another added.
The first night of Madonna's Celebration Tour also did not go smoothly after she suffered a problem with the music.
"This is exactly what you don't want to happen on your opening night," she told the crowd.
While waiting for it to be fixed, she told her audience members stories about her childhood and her near-fatal hospitalizations.
Fortunately, she got back on track and resumed performing her songs, including "Justify My Love," "La Isla Bonita," "Vogue," "Like a Prayer," "Blond Ambition," "Get Into the Groove" and "Hung Up."
