Madonna reflected on her hospitalization last year for a horrible bacterial infection and her recovery.
In June 2023, the 65-year-old Queen of Pop was taken to the hospital shortly before she was supposed to kick off her Celebration Tour. The show was postponed to give her time to recover from the serious illness.
