Salma Hayek Joins Madonna for ‘Vogue’ in Mexico City
Madonna performed her penultimate concert on her massive Celebration Tour in Mexico City on Friday night, and to mark the occasion she invited surprise guest Salma Hayek. The actress served as a judge during the “Vogue” ballroom competition at Madonna’s concert at the Palacio de Los Deportes.
Hayek shared videos and photos from the moment via Instagram on Saturday. Channeling Frida Kahlo — the legendary painter whom the actress portrayed in the 2002 film — with her vibrant ensemble, she is seen in a Vogue pose and on stage beside Madonna ready to share score cards as a ballroom judge of the dancers’ performances during “Vogue.”
“Thank you so much @madonna for letting me be a part of your iconic celebration tour,” Hayek captioned the post. “This unforgettable night goes in my bag of precious treasures. #VIVAMEXICO #VIVAMADONNA.”
A bevy of stars have served as guest judges during the ballroom competition, including Pamela Anderson, Kelly Ripa, Julia Fox, FKA Twigs Julia Garner, Diplo, Debi Mazar, Alexa Demi, Cardi B, and Madonna’s own boyfriend Josh Popper.
Madonna’s final tour stop is a big one, in fact it’s slated to draw her biggest crowd yet. On May 4, she concludes the tour with a free show at Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The performance marks the star’s first time performing in Brazil since 2012 (during her MDNA run), and is billed to be “a thank you to her fans for celebrating more than four decades of her music over the course of the epic global run of the tour.”
