Madonna knows how to close out a tour!

On Saturday, the GRAMMY-winning musician, 65, made history as she broke the record for the largest audience for a standalone concert by any artist during the final night of her The Celebration Tour at Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. 

Madonna's free show was attended by 1.6 million fans. The record was previously held by The Rolling Stones when they performed at the venue in 2006 for a then record-setting 1.5 million fans. 

Madonna's Celebration Tour show included performances of some of her biggest hits, including "Just Like A Prayer," "Nothing Really Matters," and "Music." The performance marked Madonna's first show in Brazil since 2012. 

The songstress had a special hometown guest during the "Vogue" portion of the show as Anitta surprised the audience. For the segment, the "Bellakeo" singer joined Madonna as a judge for the ball and held up a "10" sign for the dancers.

Following the show, Madonna took to Instagram to share a video, where she celebrates Brazil's culture by waving the flag on stage.

"Blame it on Rio 🇧🇷 Thank You Brazil!! 🔥🇧🇷🔥🇧🇷 🔥 @pabllovittar @itau @tvglobo #musicmakesthepeoplecometogether," she wrote. 

Ahead of the moment, Anitta -- who just released her latest album,  Funk Generation -- told ET she would be missing the Met Gala because she was showing up for Madonna.

"Not this year," she told ET when asked if was attending the Met Gala. "I'm gonna be in Brazil with Madonna."

Madonna kicked off her Celebration Tour in October 2023 at London's O2 Arena. The North American leg of the tour began in December 2023, and ran with a series of special guests including Andy Cohen , Kelly Ripa , Cardi B , Pamela Anderson and Julia Garner . 

The tour was delayed as the singer recovered from a near-fatal viral infection. Madonna got emotional during night one of the show as she reflected on the health scare .

"It's been a crazy year for me. I didn't think I was going to make it, neither did my doctors. That's why I woke up with all of my children sitting around me," Madonna revealed to a captivated audience at the time.

Jerry Seinfeld Visits ‘SNL’ to Hilariously Give Ryan Gosling Advice About Doing ‘Too Much’ Press

Jerry Seinfeld and Ryan Gosling have something in common: They’ve both recently been on lengthy press tours.

Seinfeld, 70, is currently promoting Netflix’s Unfrosted , which led him to appear on the Saturday, May 4, episode of Saturday Night Live . (The episode was hosted by Dua Lipa , who also served as the musical guest.)

“Guys, oftentimes when an actor is promoting a new movie — let’s say a Netflix movie — they have to do a lot of press,” Colin Jost began in the middle of his “Weekend Update” segment on Saturday. “Sometimes, too much press. Here to comment is a man who’s done too much press.”

Seinfeld appeared as the character in question, joking that he didn’t know where he was now.

“Was this a podcast?” the comedian asked Jost, 41. “Oh, live TV? Oh, my God. I gotta stop.”

Jost then pointed out that Seinfeld has “kinda been everywhere,” even The Rich Eisen Show .

“I wasn’t on Rich Eisen ,” Seinfeld quipped before realizing that he did appear on the sports broadcast after all. “I like Rich Eisen , I find him accessible.”

Jost then questioned how an actor, such as Seinfeld, can comprehend their schedule when they start doing “excessive press.”

“Well, that’s the thing. You don’t know until someone who cares about you shows you a video package and you see yourself with people with these names Hoda [Kotb] , Mo Rocca , Chanel [and] Vlad,” Seinfeld explained. “Yeah, I talked to a guy named Vlad.

Gosling, 43, just wrapped back-to-back press tours.

To further reiterate how he’s ready to move on Ken, Gosling reworked Taylor Swift ’s “All Too Well” to be about the doll. (His Fall Guy character is a notable Swiftie in the film.)
