“On Saturday June 24, Madonna developed a serious bacterial infection which [led] to a several day stay in the ICU,” he wrote.
“Her health is improving, however she is still under medical care. A full recovery is expected.
“At this time we will need to pause all commitments, which includes the tour,” Oseary added.
“We will share more details with you soon as we have them, including a new start date for the tour and for rescheduled shows.”
Madonna was gearing up for her Celebration Tour that was set to kick off in Vancouver on July 15. She was set to perform her hits over her 40-year career.
“The Material Girl” singer announced the tour in January and said, “I am excited to explore as many songs as possible in hopes to give my fans the show they have been waiting for.”
The singer’s oldest daughter, Lourdes Leon, was reported to have been by her mother’s side throughout the ordeal, according to the New York Post.
Fans have taken to social media to express their good wishes for the singer.
I read about Madonna & my stomach dropped. Regardless of what one thinks about her, she’s still a pop icon. She also has children who are still young. All the best to her. pic.twitter.com/0qbfEfKmW5
