I think the bacterial infection is a cover for opiate abuse and an overdose. The signs have been there for a while.

This tour is beginning to give me deja vu vibes. Isn't this all too a little familiar?

Remembering when Prince was "unresponsive" and we were told everything was fine and he just had a bad flu and all that jazz....
....and then the bitch was dead like a week later.

Saw this on the news and my heart dropped. Sending her all my love right now and praying she's looking after herself and surrounded by people who are good for her. Screw the tour (and I say that as someone who has spent a small fortune on tickets to see it). If TII taught us anything, it's that nothing is more important than your health. We've already lost one legend attempting to undertake a tour he shouldn't have been doing, I pray to God history doesn't repeat itself.

I really really hope and pray she gets through this and that this is the moment she gets the help she needs. The writings been on the wall now for quite a while and this needs to be the moment she pulls herself back from the brink and admits she needs help. She’s been spiralling into detachment and she needs to withdraw from public life and get whatever her issues are sorted out. Drugs, alcohol, painkillers, whatever the issue is she can get through it.

Horrible news, but hopefully we're all reading too much into it. Something tells me she shouldn't be doing this tour. She's worked hard her whole life, she should be taking it easy.
I dunno, maybe after MJ, Prince and Whitney, we're all a bit jumpy of her following the blueprint....
I hope she makes a full recovery and like ghost said, has the right people surrounding her who value Madonna the person and not just the superstar.

She’s gotten so many procedures, she’s probably been exposed to all kinds of shit. This was an overdose. Even her daughter joked about Madonna being the Percocet queen. I give her a hard time, but I'd be fucking devastated if she died, even more than ONJ. MJ levels for me, let's hope this is the wake up call she needs.

This sounds very serious. I also wonder if it might be drug related. I hope she is ok.

It’s been reported that Lourdes rushed to her bedside.
Probably with a DNR order.

I hope she makes a full recovery and like ghost said, has the right people surrounding her who value Madonna the person and not just the superstar. She strikes me as someone who’s surrounded by yes people. I never felt right about her doing this tour but I played along for a few reasons. Sure, we may be a bit jumpy, but there may also be a sort of self fulfilling prophecy effect. Madonna is of the same lineage as MJ, Prince, Whitney etc but she’s also aware of it. Her legacy is important to her and without wanting to be presumptuous she understands the value of a dead star at her level of fame. I’m not saying for a second that she wants to be dead, just that she possibly has a self destructive side to her that plays into an inevitability about her life. I really hope she gets through this and it’s just a scare and that it’s enough of a sign for her to realise that it’s time to call it a day.

I know beyond doubt that you’ed be destroyed if anything happened to her. Percocet Queen. That’s just all sorts of wrong made light of. When you really think of it though, MJ, Prince, Madonna etc, their bodies have gone through decades of gruelling touring and performances that’s bound to take a massive toll on them. Let’s just hope and pray she’ll be okay.

I remember an interview she gave back in the late 90s where she was talking about MJ and Prince and about how they were surrounded by yes men and she actively sought out people who would piss her off and disagree with her, because she didn't want to be like that. I definitely think somewhere along the way, she's lost sight of that and it's hard not to look at what we know of her life as an outsider looking in and not strongly suspect she too has succumbed to yes men, sycophants and enablers. Maybe they crept in slowly over a longer period of time, biding their time until she was at her most vulnerable before infiltrating her inner circle. There's definitely been a vibe about her these last 5-6yrs which wasn't there before. Something just seems 'off'.

Remember her bathroom that looked like a pharmacy a few years ago? It all seems so at odds with what a fitness fanatic she used to be, but after Prince's drug habits coming to light following his passing, nothing would shock me.
