Madonna Opens Up About Near-Death Experience
According to TODAY, Madonna developed a “serious” bacterial infection in June of 2023, which landed her in the ICU. Reportedly, the singer “passed out on the bathroom floor and woke up in the ICU,” she said.
Madonna then thanked a friend named Shioban, who she credited for saving her. Shioban was allegedly the one who found her unconscious in her NYC bathroom and got her to the hospital.
From there, Madonna said she was in an induced coma for 48 hours. Thankfully, a year later now, she seems to be doing great.
