Madonna Announces North American Tour

Hot off the controversy following M.I.A.’s middle-finger cameo at her Super Bowl performance, Madonna announced plans today for a world tour.

The tour starts on May 29 in Israel and hits, South America, Australia and Europe before making its North American debut August 28. The show stops at HP Pavilion in San Jose on Oct. 6. Tickets go on sale Feb. 13. Be prepared for this one to sell out quickly. More info from our friends at MetroActive in San Jose.
