Madonna Tour Stage Collapses, One Dead

Madonna Tour Stage Collapses, One Dead

The stage for Madonna’s Stick & Sweet concert tour at the Stade Velodrome stadium Marseille, France collapsed today (July 16). At least one person is dead and six are injured after the stage fell apart on top of several workers. The six injured were taken to local hospitals.

The 50-year-old Queen of Pop was supposed to perform on Sunday (July 19) but BBC is reporting the concert has been canceled.

“I am devastated to have just received this tragic news,” Madonna said in a statement through her spokesperson Liz Rosenberg. “My prayers go out to those who were injured and their families along with my deepest sympathy to all those affected by this heartbreaking news.”

#1 and #2. are you crazy? What kind of people wish for the death of another person?
I really feel sorry for you.

That’s horrible. It’s always been one of my weird fear when I’m at one of those big shows… I hope they get better soon.

That’s unfortunate. That would be an unpleasant way to go.

MADONNA STAGE ACCIDENT @ 07/16/2009 at 1:50 pm

Hope that they cancelled the show.. it would be fun to have it fall on Madonna though… if she went through with it.. to teach her a lesson
if someone dies on the set and several are injured you would think
that she would send condolences to the families ..DOUBT IT..

Sure there are people who say they’d die to go to a Madonna concert - but they don’t reeeaalllyyy mean it.

Madonna has issued the following statement: “I am devastated to have just received this tragic news. My prayers go out to those who were injured and their families along with my deepest sympathy to all those affected by this heartbreaking news.”

it wasn't @ 07/16/2009 at 2:12 pm

DAMMITS!! IT WASN’T HER> MODONNA!!!

1 and 2# i cant wait for karma do get to you, if i was you i would watch my step tomorrow going to work, you just might get hit by a bus, anyone who wishes death to another human being for such trivial thing as no t liking them deserves the same thing!!!

How distasteful!!!

Anyway this news is sad, it happens.

The posters wishing death on Madonna are absolute VILE. Your comments say more about you than they do about Madonna. I’d pray for your souls (even though I’m not religious), but it appears none of you have one.

Madonna has to be loving the free attention. She is such a media *****. Are you sure it wasnt her big ego that fell on the stage?

#1 & #2
yaa your just saying that
hate on her while shes alive just like mj
then when she dies your sad

#1 & #2

LOL it would have been awesome if it was madonna the dead one haha shes a ******

i hate madonna, she is so old and she acts like a teenager rocking her “super cool”body

Prayers for the family. Judge Madonna all you want but she is putting people to work and apparently her fans buy her product.

I have two things to say to you ****-bag haters wishing that Madonna ws the one killed in this accident:

1) learn to read, because last I heard, dead people can’t issue statements

2) please dive into a pool of broken glass and rubbing alcohol.

i think it was that guy holding her leg that died
hey had 2 smell her sweaty vag
rip dude, it’s sad u had 2 go out at an old hag’s concert

God has a certain way of sending His message.
