Is he still moving? Madonna serves 40 years of hits, sex and emotions, in Lisbon it takes your breath away

“Where is he in prison? It should have started an hour ago. She started an hour and a half late in Barcelona!” The biggest Portuguese arena, the Altice Arena, is buzzing, they started letting in the first fans shortly after seven in the evening, and now a crowd of twenty thousand is looking in vain for their idol more than an hour after the scheduled start time of 8:30 p.m.

Madonna tests the audience’s patience again. It’s 9:56 p.m. and the hall is once again trying to create another wave of chants. Will it be another futile attempt? It came out. The lights go out and the roof and the giant hall begin to vibrate with the first notes of the song Nothing Really Matters (Nothing important, editor’s note) from 1998’s breakthrough album Ray of Light.
