Sticky & Sweet

Following the critical success of Madonna Confessions, the powerHouse team, Madonna, and Guy Oseary return with a knockout punch— Madonna: Sticky & Sweet, a dynamic look at Madonna’s celebrated Sticky & Sweet tour, which broke all previous records and became the number-one highest grossing tour of any solo artist ever—with Madonna playing before more than 3.5 million fans and selling over 408 million dollars’ worth of tickets.

In over 500 full-color photographs taken on, and backstage, during the course of this historic 58-show tour, Oseary documents the four acts of the rock-driven, pop journey that is the Sticky & Sweet show—Pimp: A mashed-up homage to 1920s deco and modern-day gangsta pimp, with Madonna making a grand entrance dressed in Givenchy; Old School: Madonna tips her hat to her early-80s, downtown, New York City dance roots, with flashes of Keith Haring and the dance culture vibe of the time, including the birth of Hip Hop; Gypsy: A VIP trip to La Isla Bonita, infused with the spirit of Romanian folk music and dance—a tour de force; and Rave: Far-eastern influences emerge all sparkly and sporty.
