Madonna secured her title as Queen of Pop by entering the stage on a throne for the first night of her world tour.
The 50-year-old, wearing a sparkly black one-piece outfit designed by Givenchy, was surrounded by dancers in top hats and tails as she kicked off the Sticky and Sweet tour at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium.
Appropriately enough, the first track - greeted by screams from thousands of fans - was Candy Shop.
The black sequinned outfit was accessorised with knee high boots, fishnet tights and a sparkly cane.
Madonna's husband, film director Guy Ritchie, and children Lourdes, Rocco and David, were amongst those in the 40,000-strong audience.
The stadium turned into a sea of pink cowboy hats and feather boas as thousands of fans arrived. They came from across the world to see their heroine perform, with those from Wales itself proud the star had chosen their country to debut the show.
Maria Jones, 35, from Abercynon, South Wales, who was attending her third Madonna show with daughter Roxanne, 17, and niece Rosie Williams, 12, said: "This is great for Cardiff, and all of Wales.
