Santa Claus took a tumble on stage while receiving a lap dance from one of Madonnaâs dancers during the pop iconâs show in Washington, DC this week (December 19) â check out the video below.
During the singerâs latest show as part of her huge âCelebrationâ greatest hits tour, Santa took to the stage to be the nightâs guest judge for the dancers’ performance of âVogueâ.
In the video, Santa takes his seat and brandishes a â10â sign, before posing with a series of dancers. However, one dancer in particular opts to straddle Santaâs lap, and the two of them lose their balance and fall to the floor. Santa can then be seen scrambling around for his hat and glasses, while Madonna briefly appears to be shocked by the turn of events, before starting to laugh.
Santa is far from the first guest judge to have joined Madonna on stage during the tour to hand out scores during âVogueâ; previous individuals to have filled the role have included Stella McCartney, FKA Twigs, Donatella Versace and Jean Paul Gaultier.
Madonnaâs âCelebrationâ greatest hits tour recently wrapped up its UK and European leg with a mammoth show at Londonâs O2 Arena.
In a five-star review of the opening of the âCelebrationâ tour back in October, NME wrote: âThe whole thing is a thrilling reminder that Madonna isnât 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. Thatâs something worth celebrating in the dazzling, dynamic and at times slightly discombobulating way she presents it here. Really, you wouldnât have her any other way.â
The singer is strongly rumoured to be headlining Glastonbury 2024 after festival boss Emily Eavis posted on social media from the opening of the âCelebrationâ tour earlier this year. Other rumoured headliners include Coldplay, Foo Fighters and Dua Lipa, while Eavis revealed back in March that Glastonbury had booked one of two planned female headliners.Â
The US leg of the tour extends into April 2024 before a handful of shows in Mexico City. Visit here for tickets and more information.
