Madonna was joined by Kylie Minogue for a surprise performance at WorldPride, a series of international LGBT pride events currently being hosted in Amsterdam.

While performing from her recently-released 15th studio album Confessions II, which she has been launching at Club Confession events around the world, the 67-year-old queen of pop was joined by fellow pop star Minogue, 58. The pair performed Love Sensation, with Minogue later also sharing a post on Instagram sharing a behind-the-scenes look at her surprise appearance.

The clip showed Minogue dancing backstage before getting on with Madonna and dancing and singing with her, while the crowd was also covered in confetti at one stage. Tagging Madonna, she captioned the post: “Thank you everyone at Club Confessions World Pride Amsterdam.” The pair had previously performed together during Madonna’s Celebration tour at a show in Los Angeles in 2024.

Earlier in the week Madonna had teased her appearance, sharing a post online in Dutch which read, “IK HEB IETS WAAR IK OVER WIL PRATEN”, which translated into English reads “I’ve got something I wanna talk about.”

Ahead of her latest album’s release, Madonna had sat down for an interview with celebrated chat show host Graham Norton, in which she admitted to once being jealous of Minogue. During a segment of the interview in which Minogue appeared, the American singer told the Australian performer she was once “a little bit jealous” of her.

“I think my ex-husband at the time (Guy Ritchie) had a crush on her, and I was like, ‘I’ll never be as beautiful as Kylie’,” Madonna had said. 

Following its release, Confessions II has topped charts around the world, including in the UK, USA and Australia. Madonna also became the first US female artiste to earn a number one album across five decades. Ahead of its release, she also staged a surprise pop-up concert in Times Square, New York City, to kick off Pride Month. During the six-song set, Madonna sang hits from Confessions on a Dance Floor, her 2005 album, and previewed new tracks from the upcoming album.

Last month she also kicked off the FIFA World Cup’s first half-time show, performing a remix of her 2000 track Music and her new song Danceteria.
