I don’t think you realize how big Madonna was back then. When I saw her in 1990 in London there was 80 thousand of us that night. Best Saturday night of my life. 21st July 1990. Legendary!!!

[@robertfraser9873]

I was listening to it live on BBC radio 1! WOW radio 1 were sooo not ready for her that night! "F**k is a good word" !!! ❤️❤️🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 3 sold out shows at Wembley Stadium playing to 80,000 people each night. I wish that there was a pro recording of one of the Wembley shows. Even the dancers have spoken about how epic those shows were. Carlton said that he remembers that the choreography meant the dancers started with there heads down looking at the floor but, he could hear such a massive roar from the crowd and he had seen the stadium empty he just had to lift his head a little and have a peak! Because the show started in the daylight he said all he could see were people going so far back he couldn't make them out and then he saw thousands of people going up the sides of the stadium. He was so sure he was going to forget his dance moves! Hahaha 😂😂❤️❤️

Madonna has been around for 40 years 😱 she is the most influential artist and pop history ❤

[@robertfraser9873]

@@ms.b9093 Hi, were you there in person? Did you fly over for the London shows?!? If not how did you manage to listen to the live broadcast? I thought only people who could receive BBC radio 1 were able to listen. 1990 was also quite a long time from everyone having home computers and certainly smart phones. How did you manage to listen, I'm really interested in case they broadcast one of the Celebration Tour shows !!! I mean can you imagine the total bloody panic everyone around the world everyone would go into!!! ❤️❤️

[@scottmoorela1]

Madonna's BLond Ambition tour changed tours forever. She literally defined what you see artist doing today...

[@gaijinlife]

I saw this in Leeds, England in 1987 - I was 13 and this concert blew my mind. Seeing her live for the first time was a moment I'll never forget! More live videos please 😊

[@Sebastian-rv1yk]

The fact that she sing and dance like a crazy is so awesome

[@Imogene9]

She was so happy and spontaneous!

[@murrayhonahni746]

I saw this tour in Anaheim, CA on July 18, 1987 when I was 16. It was a sold out stadium of over 62,000 people! The young dancer is Chris Finch. He was 13 and he was in his hometown of Anaheim. My first big concert. My ticket was only $25! My Celebration Tour ticket was over $600!

[@scottgc633]

The young dancer is Chris Finch, who was 14/15 at the time. As others have noted, he also appeared in the "Who's That Girl" video. To this day, he speaks very positively of his time working with Madonna.

[@jasonstrader3942]

He was also in Open Your Heart.

[@robertfraser9873]

@@jasonstrader3942 Hi, the kid in the OYH video was Felix Howard. He was a child/teen model who made the big time and regularly featured in trendy mags like The Face where he had his own editorials. He went on to present UK music programme The Tube with Jools Holland and Paula Yates for a while. Madonna invited him on the WTG tour but he couldn't fit it into his schedule because he was still a working fashion model. This is how Madonna originally saw and picked for the part in OYH, she saw a shoot he had done. Felix and Chris do really look a lot alike. This is perhaps why she picked him for the tour? ❤️❤️

[@steveigardi463]

Wrong he's name is felix

[@isaacmayer422]

The amount of ENERGY that Madonna has up to this day is just incredible.

[@eliazarfincalero2300]

During her early times up to the nineties she was being managed by the same manager with Michael Jackson. She’s the first female artist ever that can fill an open stadium multiple dates during every performance of her concert. Ones you got hooked on her you can never let go. Her stamina throughout her every performances proves how much dedication and professionalism she really is as an artist, as a musician and as a performer. She really is one of a kind, the one and only in a millennium or more… I got hooked on her since ’83 and I am still into her ’til now, even until my life passes by!!! ❤❤❤ My life changed through her music, my outlook and perseverance for she’s an inspiration to me for always!!! MADONNA, Long Live the Queen!!!

[@mariamayub212]

My favorite Madonna live performance of all time! I went to this concert in Seattle on July 15th come the 1987. My mom took me and I was just 14 years old and it was the greatest night of my life, to be with my mom and to see Madonna for the first time! It was always pandemonium in there for every song so this is pretty accurate. The young boy represents the open your heart video character who was played by a different actor and this is Chris Finch who portrayed him in the opening number and throughout the tour. It was a tour that was much more geared towards a younger audience so having a teenager dancing with Madonna was pretty cool. This whole tour is so important to me, I watch it every July 15th to commemorate that day.

[@Imogene9]

Wow! Lucky you! I was 17 and begged my parents to let me go to the Turin (Italy) concert, but they said no. I watched it live on tv (and recorded it).

[@dennisjenga]

Madonna has always been, one of a kind! 👑

[@andrewcollis-prather9778]

The young kid was also in her Who’s that Girl video….she set (and still does) the standard. For stadium concerts!

[@bluedragon4]

This was my first concert at 14 in 1987. I can't explain how famous she was. There is no one today as famous, not even Taylor Swift has the level of fame Madonna had. Madonna is also a proffesional dancer so her concerts were amazing. No one was putting on concerts like she was.

[@michaeldominguez8272]

Yeah it was a “ plain” stage coz this was 1980’s. Her stage evolves as time goes on. This was the beginning of her concert evolution. The moving floor was a first ever in any kind of concert production. She’ll do more “firsts” 😊

[@Sebastian-rv1yk]

This was 1987...no screens, just the energy of her and her dancers...that's an stage presence ❤ Great reaction you guys...is always fun see your videos Congrats from Latin America

[@jdemd1977]

"Like a Prayer" from the Blonde Ambition Tour and the Sticky and Sweet Tour are two of (there are many) Madonna's best live performances! Great reaction! 👏 👑 💙

[@TrevorPalmatiershow]

the energy of this woman. Remember this is at the END of the concert. And she's singing and dancing like that and not out of breath. Gold standard fitness level. Aint nobody better. The kid is from the Open Your Heart character. Not the same boy but that was the opening number. She hired a tutor for him on this tour to make sure he got his schoolwork done too. Madonna is TINY. Five foot two. Shocking when you see her in person because her aura is so gigantic.

[@GoodSpiritBadBoy]

She is actually 5' 4"

[@sashabertold3731]

This is how I know Madonna, just like Michael Jackson, Prince & Whitney Houston, their fame eclipsed everything and I haven't seen it since. Madonna's longevity is something else.

[@ms.b9093]

Nor will we ever see anything like that time again! Madonna may not sell out stadiums as big as Taylor Swift these days or ever again, but no artist will ever sell as many albums as her ever again or have such lasting impact on popular culture and the music industry for women as she has had over the last 40 years!

[@rickyvvvvv]

Madonna is the queen of the conveyor belt ! I love these old-fashioned tricks of hers.

[@Datenmeer]

I think it's important to note that this video of "Into The Groove" is 36 years old. Back then it was very innovative and one of the first tour to use background projections at certain titles. You could see artistic evolvement of Madonna by watching her chronically. Always great to watch "Dress you up" and "Gambler" from the Virgin Tour from her first tour - Gives you a hint what was to come. Virgin Tour (1985) - Who's That Girl Tour (1987) - Blond Ambition Tour (1990) - Girlie Show (1993) - Drowned World Tour (2001) - Re-Invention Tour (2004) - Confessions Tour (2005) - Sticky and Sweet Tour (2008) - MDNA Tour (2012) - Rebel Heart Tour (2015) - Madame X Tour (2019)

[@scottgc633]

Glad you guys loved it! Back in 1987, the staging was considered to be innovative. Fast forward to 1990 (Blond Ambition) and she basically created the blueprint for the modern pop concert, outdoing herself again with The Girlie Show in 1993. She's always trying to outdo herself (and usually succeeds spectacularly). Be sure to check out "Like A Prayer" (Blond Ambition).

[@ajacreativemedia]

This was 1987 my first madonna tour.. my sister took me i was 8 years old1 This was her second tour followed by 1990 Blond Ambition Tour.. that was the first theatrical tour ever. She is the pioneer of tours with big sets. So the boy in this tour suppos to be the one from The "Open your Heart" music video. he couldnt make the tour so they got a look alike. React to the first song of this tour.. it"s "Open your Heart" pretty cool. This was her first international Tour. "The Virgin Tour" was her first National Tour. ;-) loving your reactions.

[@rtncg]

One of the best aspects of Madonna is her supreme vision for utilizing the stage, as she consistently manages to bring her songs and herself to life on stage, taking them to new heights.

[@mtg1263]

Your Madonna reactions are truly special and entertaining. It is so rewarding to see younger generations experience Madonna’s artistry and evolution. Taking the time to make and share your observations and your appreciation of her talent as a singer, songwriter, dancer and passionate entertainer. As you continue this journey you will begin to see the complexity, brilliance, her mastery of so many musical genres and extraordinary achievements. Like others have already commented, you can’t imagine what an international “Megastar” she truly was, and still is! There was world wide coverage of her and this was WAY before social media and the explosion of the internet and digital recording. The only way you could share any of her videos, appearances, interviews or live performances was to usually sit at home and carefully record them on your VCR if you were lucky enough to have one….lol. She was on the cover of every imaginable magazine, and covered by newspapers and entertainment shows in countries all around the world. I look forward to continuing this journey with you both!

[@andreortolon2126]

Please react to Madonna live at the Academy Awards singing Sooner or Later. Definitely a different side of her artistry and an iconic moment in her career.

[@Arnoldego]

You have to watch videos/lives performances in chronological order and you will see and understand Madonna’s evolution perfectly.

[@GVL_LAD]

That brief moment with the kid "froze" and was looking at Madonna for guidance - He literally just forgot his move and she quickly stepped in to help him! Such a stellar performance! You don't see concerts like THIS anymore!

[@robertfraser9873]

That moment is part of the choreo. Through the routine there are parts where he is supposed to be watching her and copying, like the part where she grinds her hips and he copied her and she grabs his belt to stop him and she gives it the no, too naughty for you haha 😂😂❤️❤️

[@WilUnleashed]

@@robertfraser9873 Yes, you are right. It was intentional. If you watch other shows from the tour, he does the same thing in each show. It's more as if he was asked to adlib, look as if he's going rogue, but then Madonna pulls him back in.

[@WilUnleashed]

It's actually intentional. It's part of the choreography. He does it at each show. The whole point of the dance is to have him go rogue in a couple instances, for Madonan to pull him back in. It allows him to have a couple solo moments which she is known to do with her dancers.

[@GVL_LAD]

@@WilUnleashed you sure we're talking about the same spot? Pretty sure there's a brief couple seconds he blanked. Life long Madonna fan here. 👋

[@WilUnleashed]

@@GVL_LAD Yes. Watch other performances from other shows. He does the same. He didn't "blank". It's part of the choreography.

[@tizianotorcasio6046]

Hi guys you're really doing great with your awesome Madonna reactions. I really like them!!! Anyways the boy dancer has been added in this tour because he had to perform the boy of the video Open your heart, that was the opening song. The boy in that video represents the innocence, and Madonna is choosing it at the end of the video. You should react to It, if you haven't done yet. This tour Is dated 1987, her first world tour, I was just at that right evening. It was incredible. Consider that It was the biggest production ever. Only her and Michael Jackson could put on a similar show. Anyways thank you for your great Madonna reactions. You should react to something from the Confession tour, the greatest show ever seen. Bye guys 😊

[@scottgc633]

Two of the backing singers (Nikki Harris and Donna DeLory) would go on to work with her regularly for the next 14-20 years (Nikki until 2001 and Donna until 2007). This marked their first work together, but as well as touring with her regularly, they sang backing vocals on each of her albums from "Like A Prayer" through to "Ray of Light". A formidable trio!! Nikki and Donna still work together.

[@stephenwhite2865]

Donna did also work on the confessions tour in 2006, as you can see her in the live performance of luck star. She also posted pics on instagram of her being on the confessions tour just recently :-) There was also a interview with nikki where she mentioned she last worked with madonna on the love profusion video ( behind the scenes i think ) which would of been 2003-2004

[@scottgc633]

@@stephenwhite2865 Yes, sorry - I was wasn't thinking straight. Donna last worked with Madonna during Live8 in 2007. She wasn't available to perform on the Hard Candy Promo tour in early 2008 due to her being pregnant, which meant she wasn't asked to be part of the Sticky and Sweet cast, unfortunately. Kiley Dean took her place and toured with her until the end of Rebel Heart in 2016 (so 8 years all up across four world tours).

[@stephenwhite2865]

@@scottgc633 Tbh i could imagine donna may also have felt that it was time to stop touring with madonna at that point, and start doing more of what she wants to do. I follow her on insta and she seems pretty content doing her own small shows and working with nicky. Regardless i would still love to see them both work with madonna one last time, and the dancer chris finch. I hope the new tour pays some homage to the singers and dancers she worked with before

[@aaronowen4425]

If I remember right I think it was a well known fact that she ran 5 miles a day to be able to have the stamina to perform like that. Or so I think that's what I remember hearing. Also if you wanna see more of the people playing the instruments watch the performance of Causin a commotion from the same tour.

[@Icon4life2]

Love the Madonna reactions! Keep em coming! I love this song soooo much. My favorite Madonna song still to this date. This was a great and energetic performance in Italy from her second tour called "Who's that Girl" all the way back in 1987. Madonna has only gotten better and perfected being one of the greatest live performers of all time. Someone mentioned doing her Oscar performance of Sooner or Later, I agree. That's one her best voal performances. I would recommend Live to Tell from the Confessions Tour, she also uses the moving walkway thing again in Nobody Knows Me on the ReInvention Tour. She has so many great live performances. Keep em going!

[@howiet1971]

This tour was my first ever concert aged 16, in London. This blew me awat, as the remix you hear hadn't yet been released in the UK so this was the first time hearing it. You guys have an amazing Madonna journey to come watching her live shows.

This was my first tour of hers. I was 17. I’ve seen every tour since. In this era she was an amazing dancer who rivaled the best. Her voice wasn’t “perfect” but it had a sound that stood out and sounded so good. Her production was over the top. I hope you guys are going to The Celebration Tour in 2024. You have to see her.

[@MisterCiccone]

And this wasn't even the end of the show. I was in the crowd and it was awesome. We still talk about her as the Queen of pop, which younger people seem to question sometimes, which I understand, but back then she was almost like God. I think no one ever had that star power as Madonna had back then and still has. Ah well, it was a very different time, when you became famous, you were a star. I think fame is degraded now, every single reality star today is famous, but for what? Queen mother Madonna I love ya!

[@WilUnleashed]

The young man is just part of the show. He is the same boy in her Who's That Girl music video. It was filmed when they were rehearsing the tour. Everything you see him do, is intentional. If you watch other performances of this song on the tour, he does exactly the same moves. He didn't mess up. He was told to "do his own thing" which is kinda part of the message of this song called "Into the Groove" where it's all about dancing to your own groove. As for the staging, that was pretty innovated at the time in the mid to late 80's. She is one of the few artists who started doing these elaborate stage sets and designs by 1990 with Blond Ambition Tour. No one was really doing that sort of thing until she started doing it. It was her FIRST world tour, so it was set up like a huge rock show. Her previous tour, The Virgin Tour didn't have an elabroate stage design either, and that's because it was unheard of at the time. That all came later, innovated by her with future tours. Other artists began to follow her with elaborate stage designs. It's safe to say her and U2 have been really responsible for starting the trend of huge stage designs by the early 90's.

[@colinmackillop]

This was my first Madonna tour in Leeds, England in 1987. I was beyond excited. Her next tour - Blonde Ambition - changed music tours forever. Next, react to Future Lovers or Jump from the Confessions Tour and be amazed.

Madonna's business acumen in the world of entertainment business for a female is truly unmatched. With a remarkable blend of vision, innovation, and fearlessness, she has revolutionized the industry on multiple fronts. From awe-inspiring concert stages that push boundaries and captivate audiences, to groundbreaking marketing strategies that defy conventions, Madonna has consistently been a trailblazer. Her ability to think outside the box and embrace new trends has not only elevated her own career but has also inspired countless artists to push their own creative boundaries.

She’s the Most successful artist male or female in Canada, Spain, Italy and Europe Hot 100. And Madonna has sold over 300 million records worldwide. Guiness record. And Madonna has the most number ones on any billboard chart, 50 number ones on the dance club play chart. Madonna is global. People like Mariah had success mainly in the USA. Example .. the United world chart (the UWC) Mariah has only 4 number ones. Madonna has 17. Madonna reigns supreme worldwide

If you want to see her introduce the band, you can watch Causing a Commotion, from the Whose that Girl concert. First tour was the Like a Virgin Tour. As with the Blonde Ambition Tour there were voice problems. When you look at the first performances in Japan and compare to Italy, you notice that her voice was really in need of rest. It just really requires a lot of dancing and singing at the same time. The boy in the concert is the same boy as in the Open Your Heart video and plays a big role during the opening act of this concert. He represents innocence, open-mindedness and freedom.

Thnx for finally reacting! Do the Into the Groove video or live performance in Blonde Ambition tour

[@falkylittlefalky7445]

Wow!!! Great choice my favourite from this tour!!! The energy and the start (amazing start) of the choreography Madonna ruled!! Afternoon watching your Like A Prayer from Blond Ambition you're right there's nobody even close to Madonna then not even Madonna now as sadly as a fan since the beginning I cannot watch her anymore but please keep up the live reactions especially Blond Ambition and Girlie Show... Everybody that closes The Girlie Show is great

ALSO - regarding "meaning" of the child dancer... Different song, but have you seen the Open your heart video with the little boy who goes to the peep show to see Madonna? And dances with her in the street in the end? I always felt like this was emulating that. It's just innocent fun.

It was the ending before the encores - I saw this show at Wembley Stadium in London 08/18/87

Right… need to get some perspective here: Madonna’s first hit was in 1983/1984, since then she rose in fame, it was Christmas 1984 with Like A Virgin that superstardom commenced. (Think about it, a girl called Madonna, wearing a crucifix, singing about virginity…at Christmas.) Through 1985 her fame increased, she embarked on The Virgin Tour in 85, which was a highly choreographed and stunning tour, in 1986, True Blue album was issued which put Madonna on Michael Jackson level of fame and musical output. Her effect on the music industry should not be underestimated. Before Madonna, you had huge album sellers like Barbra Streisand and maybe Olivia Newton John (among others.) but Madonna was also a huge singles seller too. Her Who’s That Girl tour was highly theatrical and had a story arc through it and rivalled huge tours of Michael Jackson and Prince. Her show did take elements of her music videos and recreated them live, she also had the conveyor belt, and screens and loads of effects. The thing about Madonna in 87 is that the tour didn’t swallow her up, later productions are so huge and mind blowing that at times she is lost within it all. This was Madonna’s show in Italy where her family are from, she had a god like status there (not that she didn’t have it in other places, her debut show in Britain made the national news which was unheard of.) Blond Ambition tour in 1990 is technically more advanced than Whos That Girl, but Who’s That Girl has a charm about it which is lost in later productions as by then Madonna became a bit ‘harder’ less coquettish. Also, personally, Madonna’s interest in fire arms in later shows were lost on me, though I knew she was more vocal and political on modern culture.
