CNN —Madonna took the stage in London on Saturday in the long-awaited debut of her surprisingly poignant new ‘Celebration’ world tour, which had been delayed after she suffered a serious health scare during the summer. The “Like a Virgin” performer also addressed her health troubles, saying it had been “a crazy year for me.”“I didn’t think I was going to make it, neither did my doctors. Madonna battled a bacterial infection in June that caused her to cancel the first leg of the “Celebration” tour in North America. Indeed, it should be noted for Madonna’s die-hards that the tour is not at all reserved only for her chart hits. Madonna often faced away from the audience, performing to a camera that then projected a flawless-looking Madge back to the crowd.

[1/5] Locals in the Chiradzulu district look at the damage on a road after mudslides and rockfalls in the area caused by the aftermath of Cyclone Freddy in Blantyre, Malawi, March 15, 2023. Most people heeded the warnings, knowing from bitter experience the damage such storms could inflict: 600 people had died in Cyclone Idai in 2019. The storm was far more deadly in neighbouring Malawi, where at least 447 were killed as Freddy tore through the country's southern tip and inundated the main commercial hub of Blantyre. Mozambique and Malawi are among the poorest 8% of countries in the world, according to United Nations data. In the case of Freddy, this extra energy allowed the storm to pick up strength again and circle back to strike again.
