🇧🇷🌈🎙 — Madonna's show on Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro accumulated a record of thefts, sexual references, tributes to members of the Brazilian government, and advocacy for Palestine

💰
The grand concert, sponsored by Banco Itaú (BlackRock in Tupi language) in partnership with the government and the city of Rio de Janeiro, marks the end of The Celebration Tour, celebrating Madonna's 40-year career.

🦠 The show featured performances honoring various people who died during the AIDS epidemic, including Brazilian and foreign celebrities.

🚩 Taking advantage of the attraction to Brazil, Madonna brought icons of the Brazilian left to the stage: Cacique Raoni, Marina Silva, Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, Marielle Franco, Abdias do Nascimento, Paulo Freire, Maria Bethânia, Renê Silva, Daniela Mercury, and others.

🏳️‍🌈 Alongside the Brazilian LGBT singer Pabllo Vittar, Madonna performed with the colors of the Brazilian flag. This performance was a request from the federal government, under Lula's leadership, which seeks to "reclaim the colors" of the country, according to him, "stolen by fascism." Madonna also made a hand gesture associating with Lula (an "L" with her hand).

🇵🇸 At one point during the show, the Palestinian flag was projected with the words "free" and "equal human rights." The projection was done by artvsmnow, who does not have direct contact with the event but was authorized to be present by the organization.
