Madonna teases Rebel Heart Tour with pole-dancing nuns

By Will Stroude

Madonna’s been busy teasing us in recent weeks with what we can expect from the Rebel Heart Tour setlist, but now she’s given us a taste of what we can expect on stage when her eagerly-anticipated world tour kicks off in September.

The iconic entertainer proved that she’s still got a taste for controversy in the first sneak peak of the tour, which shows some of her backup dancers dressed as nuns while they perform a pole-dancing routine soundtracked by one of the album’s musical highlights, Devil Pray. There’s also a cheeky first glimpse of Madge in rehearsals for good measure.

Madonna’s Rebel Heart Tour will kick off September 9 at Montreal’s Bell Centre, with the 56 year-old hitting the UK at London’s O2 arena on December 1 & 2, Manchester on December 14, Birmingham on December 16 and Glasgow on December 20.

US producer and Rebel Heart collaborator Diplo recently defended Madonna against the backlash she’s been facing of late, saying that people no longer wanted her to succeed in the industry because of her age and sex – click here to find out more.

Meanwhile, a full thirty-minute reel of unseen outtakes from the star’s legendary Vogue video have found their way onto the internet – check out the never-before-seen footage here.
