  • I attended the Sticky and Sweet Tour at Madison Square Garden and at Dolphin Stadium, it was off the hook. I can't wait until Madonna tours again.

  • Madonna has staying power...gotta give her that. But why can't she stay in a stable relationship? And the name of her tour is a little nasty and gross.
