Madonna performed for crowd of 50,000 in Berlin last night. The stadium where she performed, the the old Olympiastadium from the games of 1936, had a capacity of 75,000 and tickets were going for half price on eBay ahead of the event. Retail prices were 90 to 190 Euro, or $132 to $280 USD. Madonna was in and out of the city in 31 hours, and was spotted at Schoenefeld airport going through security in her “Dancing Queen” embroidered bathrobe last night. She didn’t fly commercial though, and was in her own Lear jet. She may not have planned to end up at the airport in her robe - she was likely surprised by the fact that she had to go through security and we might not be able to accuse her of wearing the robe for publicity. Madonna and her entourage arrived first at the soon to be closed Tempelhof airport, and had to be transferred to Schönefeld as no flights are allowed out of Templehof after 10pm.
Madonna’s people took up 250 rooms in three different hotels in Berlin, and she personally stayed in a 2000 square foot Presidential suite in the Regent Hotel. According to German reports, she had an entire conference room at the Regency converted into an fitness center with equipment, ropes and mats for yoga exercises. Loud music was heard blaring from the room for several hours.
German newspaper Bild also reported that Madonna took hits of oxygen backstage during her performance. They called it “Bio-doping.”
All that preparation is said to have paid off, and Madonna gave another roaring performance by most accounts.
Thanks to WENN for these pictures from last night. Love to my husband for helping me with the translation and details for this story.

Bio-doping! The mistress of change, and yet she can’t handle life’s most natural change, getting older.
I think she’s getting a very scary, artificially-preserved look, like a plump Twinkie in dusty plastic package.

Oxygen? That’s what you crazy kids are calling it, eh? I figured it was her usual rejuvenating blend of widow’s tears, virgin’s blood, mixed with wolf’s bane and the souls of orphaned children.

lol at the comments today

She looks incredible.

I shall not cast stones at a woman with her own Lear jet.

Actually, even though it’s a wig, having some bangs to soften that forehead helps with the Vampira look, imo. That parted down the middle, roots showing, bleach blonde look ages the hell out of her, and added to the sinewy mess attached to her skeleton, it’s a somewhat hideous display.
But, yah, dayum, I’d like to be in that shape. Course, I don’t have millions to help me get there, nor the time for it, so it’s Sta-Puff Marshmallow mandom for me.
Ah, comfort food…..

that security guy behind her kinda looks like anthony edwards!!!
-
and did she do those oxygen hits from a coffin?!
-
What’s next? Shooting up with saline?!
Think of the children, Madge. The children! -
Poor little Granny, what’s she trying to prove anyway? She’s already dominated two decades of music. What’s so bad about retiring and making a comeback later on if she wants too. These old celebs are sooooo greedy.

She looks much better with the wig on! I still think she looked best with darker hair…

Awww, she’s handling her own luggage, how cute.
Looks like the hotel/restaurant business reaps big time in the cities on her tour, that’s good.
But using private planes and transporting her entourage and stage props such as that auto, must leave a huge carbon footprint.
