Madonna Shares New Injury in Rehearsal Photos Following Health Scare
Madonna sparked new concerns among fans after posting photos of an apparent injury she obtained just weeks after recovering from another health scare that landed her in the hospital.
The new behind-the-scenes pics, simply captioned "Rehearsal photo dump……….??" and shared via Instagram on Tuesday, show the "Material Girl" songstress prepping for her upcoming tour–from glam squad pics to practices, fans got a glimpse of it all.
However, two images caught social media's attention, one which showed Madonna stretched out, apparently icing her knee and another that captured the 65-year-old on stage wearing a bright blue brace around the same leg.
What exactly led to the Grammy winner needing the brace or ice is unclear, but it has stirred up a bit of worry in her followers.
"Wishing you a safe and healthy next few weeks of rehearsal ??????," one fan exclaimed before another suggested she "watch that knee."
"See the ice pack on your knee.. stay safe Madonna," a third wished. "Health comes first ??."
"It must feel amazing to be back in rehearsals after everything that's happened," someone else gushed. "See you in London! ??."
Earlier this summer, Madonna was hospitalized with a severe bacterial infection that landed her in the intensive care unit.
In early July, she let everyone know she was "on the road to recovery," working hard to get well and reschedule the tour dates she had postponed at the time. It wasn't an immediate recovery, as a month later, she shared that she was finally able to "dance just a little bit," but now she's ready to get back out there.
A little over two weeks ago, the Queen of Pop confirmed her tour would start up again soon, sharing gratitude for all those who made her recovery and rescheduled concert dates possible.
"It’s great to be Alive…………" she shared in a statement at the time. "And Amazing to Be able to put on my dancing shoes and Celebrate my Birthday! ?????? Im So Grateful. Thank you Lisbon and to all who made it possible! ??????."
