BH, it's Madonna In a music event something akin to The Beatles at Cardiff Capital in 1964, Madonna, 50 not out, began her latest world tour in Cardiff It is the first time the Millennium Stadium has been picked to start a world tour and stadium manager Gerry Toms said it showed the venue had the confidence of the industry. Unveiling a stage show with 250 crew, £1m of jewellery, 16 dancers and eight costume changes. It was the first of 51 dates in a tour which takes in 16 European venues, including London's Wembley Stadium, before moving on to North and South America. The set up includes - two stages, £lm of jewellery, 69 guitars, 3,500 individual wardrobe elements, 100 pairs of fishnet stockings with 100 pairs of kneepads. 30 wardrobe trunks with 18 clothing racks and nine wardrobe crew. 12 seamstresses in Cardiff worked to finish the costumes for opening night. 120 powder puffs, large freezers to carry ice packs for Madonna and her dancers. Also travelling on the tour are a chiropractor, a personal trainer and a masseuse, there are 10 cases of medical supplies and 12 trampolines for rehersal by Madonna and the dancers. Madonna performed around 20 hits from her 25-year career, with the show split into four sections - Pimp, Old School, Gypsy and Rave. The Pimp section of the concert was described as a "mashed-up homage" to 1920s deco and modern gangsta pimp, in which Madonna made an entrance dressed by Givenchy. The Old School show section saw Madonna return to her early 1980s downtown New York City dance roots. There was a Romanian folk music and dance-influenced Gypsy section, before the Rave element, which had far eastern influences, emerging "all sparkly and sporty". America's Hot 100 This Week ...
