Madonna broke her own record at a concert in Rio de Janeiro and made a spectacular reference to Michael Jackson

The 65-year-old pop icon Madonna held a free concert in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where she even managed to break her own record. For the first time in her performance history, the singer rocked the dance floor for 1.6 million people. In particular, she honored the memory of her friend Michael Jackson in one of the "scenes".

The star combined two songs - Michael Jackson's Billie Jean and Madonna's Like A Virgin - and decided to create a performance in the form of shadow theater. Visitors sang along loudly to the pop icon, which was clearly audible when the music stopped. According to Metro, her first record for the number of people who attended a concert was set back in 1987 in Paris at Parc de Soeux. Then 130 thousand people came to listen to her.

During this year's concert on May 4, Madonna said: "We are in the most beautiful place in the world. This place is magical."

The singer regularly changed her images and had a whole concert program, which was often a reference to her past performances. One of them was a passionate kiss similar to the one she shared with singer Britney Spears at the 2003 MTV VMAs.

Many viewers were dressed in the theme of the star's images, starting with homemade cone bras, such as the iconic Jean Paul Gaultier bust, and ending with blonde wigs and leather corsets.

According to X users, it was Madonna who became the most discussed person on the social network on May 5.
