Madonna proves she's still the Queen of Pop

HER tour might be called Rebel Heart - named after her latest studio album from last year - but Madonna was strangely on her best behaviour at her first ever concert in Singapore at the National Stadium on Sunday evening.

The gig has been mired in controversy from the moment that it was announced in January with leaders of the Roman Catholic and Christian churches blasting the 80s pop icon's blasphemous stage show in the week leading up to it.

The rare R18 rating that the concert was slapped with also meant that only those aged 18 and above could attend - but with the nose-bleed ticket prices that went as high as a record S$1,288, the censors were probably worrying themselves silly for nothing because no teenager will sacrifice a year's worth of hipster coffee for that.
