Julia Fox joined Madonna on stage during her Celebration tour in London after sharing she auditioned for the pop icon’s biopic.
The Italian-American model and actor made a guest appearance during the final night of Madonna’s six-date residency as part of the Ballroom Interlude, in which the pop star’s dancers compete in a vogueing competition.

It comes after Fox revealed that she had auditioned for Madonna’s now-shelved biopic. The actor discussed the first time she met the icon while appearing on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Sunday (October 15).
She recalled having dinner with the icon in New York at the famous Italian restaurant Carbone with “some really fabulous gays” a few years ago. “Thereās so much strength in her vulnerability. When you meet her, she just has that āItā factor. It totally makes sense why she is Madonna,” she said.
She continued: “Then we kind of kept in touch and she was doing her biopic and I really wanted to play Debi [Mazar, Madonna’s longtime friend and Goodfellas star]. I went to her house and I read for her, and it was just all very surreal.ā
Mazar previously responded to Fox’s potential casting in the biopic. āFunny enough, she reminds me more of Madonna when we were young, than of myself…Iād obviously be flattered,” she said.
Madonna is currently on her ‘Celebration’ tour. In a five-star review of the tour’s opening night, NME said: “āThe Celebration Tourā feels like watching Madonna grapple with her life and legacy in real time: from motherless child to mother of six, punky hustler to pop icon, provocative upstart to grande dame both cherished and chastised.
āThe most controversial thing Iāve ever done is to stick around,ā she tells us in an audio except from her 2016 Billboard Women in Music speech.
“The whole thing is a thrilling reminder that Madonna isnāt just a pop star, but also a cultural force who genuinely changed the world by chafing against what society expects from women in the public eye. Thatās something worth celebrating in the dazzling, dynamic and at times slightly discombobulating way she presents it here. Really, you wouldnāt have her any other way.”
