R.I.PI wonder if Madonna will do some sort of tribute in upcoming shows, like she did for Michael Jackson. Either as a song in the special performance bit, or even a speech?

I bet she'll sing a song of his during the "request" section

She just posted on Facebook :
 

I'm devastated.
David Bowie changed the course of my life forever. I never felt like I fit in growing up in Michigan. Like an oddball or a freak. I went to see him in concert at Cobo Arena in Detroit. It was the first concert I'd ever been too. I snuck out of the house with my girlfriend wearing a cape.
We got caught after and I was grounded for the summer. I didn't care.
I already had many of his records and was so inspired by the way he played with gender confusion .
Was both masculine and feminine.
Funny and serious.
Clever and wise.
His lyrics were witty ironic and mysterious.
At the time he was the thin white Duke and he had mime artists on stage with him and very specific choreography
And I saw how he created a persona and used different art forms within the arena of rock and Roll to create entertainment.
I found him so inspiring and innovative.
Unique and provocative. A real Genius.
his music was always inspiring but seeing him live set me off on a journey that for me I hope will never end.
His photographs are hanging all over my house today.
He was so chic and beautiful and elegant.
So ahead of his time.
Thank you David Bowie.
I owe you a lot. .
The world will miss you.
Love
M

I don't feel as devasted as most of his great fans but it's a very sad news, he was only 69 by the way...

He was undoubtedly a genius, truly a one-of-a kind artist...R.I.P

I guess Madonna will probably have some kind words for paying tribute to him at tomorrow's show!

He was certainly the Madonna with boobs.

Rest in Peace gorgeous man

Love Madonna's affection for a man who inspired her and who was such a creative force. Such a real moment.

Thank you for posting this I'm so happy that he was proud to have inspired her, wow!   Now I'm absolutely sure that he would have liked her performance

I think it's a little simplistic to label Madonna 'the female Bowie' though there are some similarities.

 

I was really touched by her tribute performance. She performed it with such gusto and passion and true honour.
