Madonna’s Children Made A Surprise Appearance At Her London Show
Madonna’s younger daughters, Mercy, 17, and Estere, 11, also showed off their dance moves for the audience. During one moment of which footage has gone viral online, Estere shows off her incredible skills in high-heeled boots and a yellow and black catsuit, as she thrived to the excited audience cheering her on.
Two of Madonna’s other children, daughter Stella, 11, and son David, 18, were also at the London premiere and can be seen on stage in various footage. The only child apparently missing was her 23-year old son Rocco, whom she shares with her ex-husband Guy Ritchie.
Madonna’s kids aren’t the only celebrity offspring to join their mother on a world tour recently. Beyonce’s daughter Blue Ivy has been making waves all year for being a part of her mom’s ongoing Renaissance tour.
At only 11, Blue Ivy has been spotted at every performance in the background with the other dances. While her dancing skills were criticized at first, the pre-teen has become a fan favorite amongst fans, with many folks pointing out her improvement online.
It seems music lovers will have another mother-daughter duo to follow – or, should we say daughters – if Madonna’s girls join her for the entirety of the Celebration tour.
Madonna Credits Her Kids For Helping Her Through Health Crisis This Year
The world tour was supposed to kick off in July, but Madonna was hospitalized the month before with a serious bacterial infection, leading to the postponement of the show.
By August, however, it was revealed the show was back on and the pop star was already rehearsing, despite being in recovery. More dates were added to the North American leg, and now the tour is officially on, with Madonna’s London show a clear success. Celebration will conclude next year in Mexico City in late April.
During one point in her London performance, Madonna took a pause to reflect on her health scare earlier this year. She thanked her family for being by her side and helping her push through the difficult time. “I didn’t think I was going to make it,” Madonna confessed. “I forgot five days of my life — or death, I didn’t really know where I was.”
“My children were there — and my children always save me every time,” she continued. “I have got to be there for my children – I have to survive for them.”
October 14th wasn’t only special for Madonna because it was the start of her tour, but also because it was Lourdes’ 27th birthday. The pop star posted a touching tribute to her daughter on Instagram, where she credited her for saving her.
“What an Auspicious day! Opening night of The Celebration Tour And the birthday of my Brave. And. beautiful daughter Lola,” Madonna wrote. “So many years later and nothing has changed! Thank you for choosing me to be your mother! You saved me!”
She added, “Happy Birthday Little Star! Love you for all the lives!!”
Lourdes is following in her famous mother’s footsteps, as she recently released a new single, which Madonna proudly promoted on social media. Given Madonna’s daughter’s appearances at her London show, it appears they all have what it takes to follow in the singer’s iconic footsteps.
