Temperatures were around 27 C (81 F) during the late night show.<br \/>\nMadonna, 65, performed songs such as \u201cLike a Prayer\u201d, \u201cVogue\u201d and \u201cExpress Yourself\u201d for over two hours from 10:45 p.m. (0145 GMT on Sunday) as she wound up the greatest hits tour that started late last year.<br \/>\n\u201cRio, here we are, in the most beautiful place in the world, with the ocean, the mountains, Jesus,\u201d Madonna told the crowd, referring to the city\u2019s huge mountaintop Christ the Redeemer statue. \u201cMagic.\u201d<br \/>\nBrazilian pop artists Anitta and Pabllo Vittar, as well as younger musicians from samba schools, participated in the show.<br \/>\nMore than 3,000 police officers were deployed around the concert area, where the Rolling Stones and Rod Stewart have also drawn million-strong crowds. The authorities used a crowd-management strategy similar to their handling of the city\u2019s famous New Year\u2019s Eve celebrations.<br \/>\nBrazilian authorities have stepped up their vigilance over heat-related health problems after a young Brazilian fan died at a concert by Taylor Swift last year due to heat exhaustion.<br \/>\nRio\u2019s state and city governments said they spent 20 million reais ($3.9 million) on the concert, while the rest was financed by private sponsors. The authorities estimate the concert could bring about 300 million reais to Rio\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<p>(Reuters)concert. beach concert, Madonna, Rio de Janeiro<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More than a million people attended a free Madonna concert on Copacabana beach in Brazil, with the city estimating a crowd of 1.6 million.
