Madonna Confirms ‘Confessions' Sequel Is on the Way
A new Madonna album is on the way. The legendary performer confirmed on social media Thursday that she's working on Confessions 2, the follow up to her 2005 Confessions On a Dance Floor.
'My Valentine's Day gift to all my fans is to let you know I'm putting my heart and soul into my new music and I can't wait to share it with you!!,' the singer wrote in an Instagram post accompanied by the Confessions track 'Future Lovers.' She didn't share any details about a potential release date.

Confessions 2 would mark Madonna's first album since 2019's Madame X, and her 15th album overall. Confessions on a Dance Floor, which turns 20 in November, won a Grammy for Best Dance/Electronic album in 2007.
Madonna was also teasing new music at the end of last year, confirming on social media that she was in the studio with Confessions producer Stuart Price, saying that 'these past few months [have] been medicine for my SOUL.' While Madonna didn't confirm Price's involvement in Confessions 2, it's certainly likely.
New music from Madonna is fitting given that the Queen of Pop wrapped her year-long Celebration tour last year, freeing up her busy schedule.
Outside of her music, Madonna delivered a surprise stand-up comedy set in New York last month, with Amy Schumer bringing her to the club. She's also been particularly vocal about her displeasure over President Donald Trump's administration, writing last month that the 'new Government is slowly dismantling all the Freedoms we have been fighting for and WON over the years.' She urged, 'Don't give up the fight.'
