The 61-year-old music sensation only performed a single night at the Grand Rex on February 22 before calling off the next show, citing about “ongoing injuries”.
Madonna later called off two of her further Paris concerts. The last in her Madame X world tour after French authorities banned large gatherings in a bid to stem the spread of the virus in early March.
