Madonna performed at Coachella with Sabrina Carpenter

For the first time in nine years, singer Madonna took to the stage of the Coachella festival in California as an invited guest in the segment of the performance of American singer Sabrina Carpenter. All the details are in the Izvestia article.

The Return of the Legend

Madonna appeared on stage during Sabrina Carpenter's performance on Friday, April 17th. The artists performed famous hits from different years together, including the songs "Vogue" and "Like a Prayer". The Indio audience also heard a new song, which is likely to be included in Madonna's upcoming album "Confessions II", which is scheduled for release on July 3.

For the performance, the singer chose a purple corset and lace clothes, complementing the image with high boots. Sabrina appeared in a white bodysuit with a bow and lace. During the performance, Madonna joked about her colleague's height, noting that it was the first time she had performed with someone shorter than her.

Significance of the event

This appearance at the festival was symbolic for Madonna. The singer reminded the audience that exactly 20 years ago, it was at this venue that she presented the first part of the Confessions on a Dance Floor project for the first time in America.

"You can imagine what a delight it is for me to come back here after 20 years ... it's like a vicious circle, you know — a very significant moment for me," Madonna shared.

The singer last performed at the festival in 2015, appearing as a guest artist during a segment by rapper Drake.

Criticism on social media

Despite the triumphant appearance, the performance caused a wave of criticism on social media. Many viewers accused Madonna of using the soundtrack. Netizens called the artist's actions a deception, believing that she only created the appearance of singing during a performance with Sabrina.

Some angry fans recalled the singer's long-standing conflict with Elton John, who had previously criticized her for such methods of work.
