On May 27 2006, Madonna’s spokesperson announced that there would be no Confessions Tour for Japan or Australia.
“Due to Madonna’s heavy workload as part of her Confessions Tour of America and Europe, plus her wishes to spend as little time away from her family, Madonna has unfortunately decided to cancel the tour to Japan and therefore there will be no tour to Australia. She hopes that her fans will understand her making the personal decision.”
Confessions remains Madonna’s best tour ever! Key ballad-Live to Tell.
The Confessions Tour did stop in Japan, 2 dates in Osaka, and 2 in Tokyo. Madonna shot the video for Jump in Japan while touring there.
Prompting me to travel from Australia to NYC to see it. Great trip 🙂
