Sydney Mardi Gras has premiered a video tribute to the Queen Of Pop, Madonna.
The clip features over 200 volunteers of all ages at Sydney’s Darling Harbour performing several of Madonna’s iconic tracks including “Material Girl”, “Vogue”, “Express Yourself” and “Living For Love”.
Mardi Gras organisers say the video is a heartfelt tribute in recognition and respect of Madonna’s support for our LGBTQI communities throughout her career.
“As an artist, Madonna has helped define a generation during an era that has seen huge global changes, and diversity has ALWAYS been core to her message of self-expression and love,” they posted to Facebook.
“We hope that our video tribute goes someway to reflect the sheer joy, infinite love and deep respect that our diverse LGBTQI communities have for a unique performer who continues to empower, celebrate, and support us.”
Madonna is currently in Australia for the Rebel Heart Tour, which finishes in Sydney this weekend.
