Madonna captioned her tour reaction video 'Absolutely No Regrets' with her song ‘Give It 2 Me’ as the soundtrack

LISBON, PORTUGAL: On Thursday, May 18, Madonna took to Instagram to share behind-the-scenes footage from the rehearsal of her upcoming Celebration Tour. In the video, the “Queen of Pop” could be seen spraying whipped cream into her mouth and goofing around with her background dancers. The 64-year-old uploaded the clip with a caption that read “Absolutely No Regrets……..” and used her 2008 song ‘Give It 2 Me’ as the background soundtrack.

The video comes after the pop star shared a glimpse of her intense tour preparations by displaying a photo of bruises on her bare legs. Rehearsals for Madonna’s world tour reportedly began on the week of April 6. The worldwide gig will mark the singer’s 12th concert tour and will be the first time she is touring without promoting a specific studio album, the Daily Mail reported.

A look into Madonna’s tour rehearsal video

Madonna’s tour rehearsal video began with the singer mouthing, “It's time for a clock. It's time for a reminder of time.” In the footage, the ‘Madame X’ creator flaunted several different looks, including one with black fishnet tights, silk pink boxing shorts, and a long black robe. She also wore her red-dyed hair in different looks, with one shot showing her wearing two long braids.

In another outtake from the video, Madonna could be seen displaying her long locks while wearing a black baseball cap that read “SPIRITUALLY HUNGRY” in white capital letters. She paired the hat with a long-sleeved black shirt with “BELOW AVERAGE PROFESSIONAL” printed on the outfit. While some clips showed the musician without make-up, others showed her wearing rouge matte lipstick.

A particular moment from the video showed one of Madonna’s background dancers displaying strings of whipped cream atop his body while another dancing is seemingly attempting to lick off him. The moment then cuts to show the pop icon funneling whipped cream into her mouth from a red can. Other behind-the-scenes moments showed Madonna passionately dancing and playing around with her backup dancers while rehearsing for her tour.

One shot from the footage showed Madonna surrounded by a glam squad while standing in front of a backstage vanity. The singer could also be seen saying, “I'm so thirsty.” Madonna’s tour is set to begin on July 15 with a sold-out Vancouver show. She will then move south through the west coast of the United States. The singer will be spending October through early December moving through Europe before heading back to North America.

‘Bloody tragic’

Social media users were quick to comment on Madonna’s tour rehearsal video and took to Facebook to react to the clip. “Seeing celebrities like this desperately trying to remain in the spotlight and remain relevant is really cringy to see,” one wrote. “Bloody tragic,” another added. “Yuk,” a third simply commented.

One said, “OK, you want to call it whipped cream? That's fine with me if it makes her feel better about herself” while another added, “Looks like she’s having dramas opening her mouth.” One mentioned, “She has bigggggg problems” and another joked, “Just inhaling the gas no doubt. She’s on a budget these days.”
