Madonna, who earns very favorable reviews for Thursday night's show at Joe Louis Arena, peppered her "Rebel Heart" concert with Detroit references.
"Motor City, your hometown girl is back," she said, according to Edward Pevos of MLive.
Pevos lists other things she said on stage:
After singing "Body Shop:" "If anyone can understand the trials and tribulations of working at a body shop, it's the Motor City."
"Detroit made me who I am today."
"They told me I have two hours, so get in, get out. Umm, bitch, I'm from Detroit."
"I'm very proud to be part of the going-up process in Detroit. I've been involved in a lot of projects with Dan Gilbert. From the Youth Boxing Program, to the Women's Empowerment Program. Detroit is making a comeback, so watch out."
On Facebook, she posted a few things about the city:
"Theres No Place Like Home! ❤U Detroit‼. ❤ #rebelhearttour" -Madonna
"I visited Detroit’s Downtown Boxing Gym Youth Program yesterday and met some amazing young rebel hearts…… This project deserves our support so they can add more kids to it! Please join me and make a donation or lead a team for the Give Detroit Challenge."
