Madonna postpones start of “Rebel Heart” tour to ensure perfection

Madonna has delayed the start of her “Rebel Heart” tour in order to make it “perfect”. 

In a statement posted on Wednesday, May 20, Madonna announced the delay and apologized to fans: 

As my fans already know, the show has to be perfect. Assembling all the elements will require more time than we realized. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause my fans. I can promise you this show will be worth the wait. Can't wait to share it with all my Rebel Hearts out there.

The tour, which was originally planned to open in Miami in late August, is now scheduled to start with a two-night show at Bell Centre in Montreal, QC on September 9-10. 

The "Rebel Heart" tour comes in support of Madge's latest album of the same title. Following its release in March, the set debuted and peaked at No. 2 on Billboard 200.
