Madonna in Sabrinawood
From Variety:
Madonna Teams Up With Sabrina Carpenter at Coachella for Transcendent Duets: ‘Vogue,’ ‘Like a Prayer’ and New Song
After rumors swirled that she would appear at Coachella weekend one, Madonna made a cameo during Sabrina Carpenter’s headlining performance on Friday night, emerging near the end of the set to perform Vogue, Like a Prayer and a new duet.
Carpenter was midway through Juno — typically the song on her “Short ‘n Sweet” tour where she’d “arrest” a different celebrity — to bring out Madonna, who emerged through the middle of the stage to sing Vogue, joining Carpenter to debut a new duet that’s rumored to be on the singer’s upcoming album Confessions II. Then, Madonna took the mic to give an extended address to the audience.
So 20 years ago today I performed at Coachella. I was in the dance tent and it was the first time I performed Confessions on a Dance Floor Pt. 1 in America, and that was such a thrill for me, so you can imagine what a thrill it is to be back 20 years later in the same boots, with the same corset, the jacket I had on earlier, a Gucci jacket. So it’s like a full circle moment, you know? Very meaningful for me.
Madonna also told the audience:
The great thing about music is that it brings people together. Am I right? It’s the one place that people have to put their differences aside. Put their shit down and everyone just have a good time togehter, right? So I am thrilled to be a part of that healing experience of bringing people together.
Then she went on singing acapella “four lines from my ‘Confessions 1’ record“. Can we get together?
