Madonna makes festival debut Madonna Tickets
Singer attacks George Bush at Coachella
Madonna has made her festival debut this evening (April 30) at Coachella.
The singer played a six song set in the Sahara Dance Tent at the Californian bash.
Arriving over 20 minutes late on stage, Madonna began with recent single ‘Hung Up’ as it seemed nearly half of Coachella’s festival goers crowded around the tent.
Getting into the spirit of things, the singer joined her band on a flying-V guitar for two tracks, while robotic dancers wore stockings over their heads.
Madonna used her set to attack the US President, changing the lyrics of 'I Love New York' to "Just go to Texas and you can suck George Bush's dick".
She then joked with the crowd asking them “Do you wanna see my arse?”, before concluding the set with her first ever single 'Everybody'.
Madonna played:
‘Hung Up’
‘Get Together’
‘I Love New York’
‘Ray Of Light’
‘Let It Will Be’
‘Everybody’
The festival now continues with Scissor Sisters and headliners Tool among those still to play.
