Madonna Pushing Herself Could Have Been Fatal
The insiders have come forward, telling The Sun about what led to Madonna’s severe health crisis. They cited overexertion as the reason for her sudden collapse and health emergency.

The Artist Was Trying To Compete With Taylor Swift And Pink
Both Taylor Swift and Pink are on their respective tours and giving their fans the time of their lives! Swift is on her commercial blockbuster ‘Eras Tour,’ and Pink has kicked off her ‘Summer Carnival’ tour. The former is staging a great theatrical concert, and the latter is amusing fans with her acrobatic skills.
So, Madonna wanted to compete with them, so she also decided to work hard, and she rehearsed for 12 hours each day. Another source said, “Madonna was in good spirits before the incident, but some friends had encouraged her to take it easy and find time for rest because of the grueling schedule she had ahead of her.”
The source continued, “Many of us feel the constant remarks about her age have put pressure on her to compete, so we are relieved that she has been forced to take time out and put her health first. People were really worried about her. Nobody would say it out loud, but there were concerns about another Michael Jackson situation if she doesn’t slow down a bit.”
