Madonna taps Cardi B, daughter Estere for Celebration Tour ‘Vogue’ dance-off

Madonna ended the West Coast run of her Celebration Tour on Monday, marking the occasion by bringing Cardi B out to judge the show’s “Vogue” dance-off.

In the fifth and final Inglewood, California show at the Kia Forum, Cardi B, 31, and Madonna, 65, posed in their judges chairs, back-to-back in matching blonde wigs and cone-bras, which the queen of pop famously wore during her 1990 Blonde Ambition Tour.

In tow was Madonna’s 11-year-old daughter Estere, who struck a pose in a sleeveless black and gold leotard, black boots and long braids, earning a perfect 10 from the judges.

Julia Garner, Eric Andre, Terri Joe, Ali Wong, Alexa Demie and Santa have all had the honor of judging during the “Vogue” dance-offs.

Madonna falls onstage, recalls ‘near-death experience’ during Celebration Tour stops

Cardi B’s appearance and Estere’s performance are the latest moments from Madonna’s Celebration Tour. The tour has also made headlines after fans sued her for allegedly starting shows late, her mistaken inclusion of Luther Vandross in an AIDS tribute and her fall onstage after a dancer dropped her, which she quickly recovered from.

Last week, the Grammy-award-winning singer drew ire after she accidentally called out a fan in a wheelchair for “sitting down” during her concert.

The tour also comes after the singer’s harrowing “near-death experience” last year. Madonna opened up during a tour stop last week about being hospitalized with a bacterial infection and being in a coma for four days last June.

“I’m not kidding, it was pretty scary,” she told fans, according to a video of the speech shared on YouTube. “Obviously, I didn’t know for four days because I was in an induced coma. But when I woke up, the first word I said was, ‘No.’ Anyway, that’s what my assistant tells me.”

Madonna explained she felt like God was asking if she wanted to “come with me,” prompting her reply, “No!” During her recovery, the singer recalled she had no energy and “literally couldn’t walk from my bed to the toilet.”

The health scare forced Madonna to postpone the start of the tour, which had been scheduled to kick off in Vancouver last July.
