Madonna has deleted all her Instagram posts amid rumours of some massive anniversary plans.

The 64-year-old singer is marking 40 years in the music business this year after releasing her self titled debut album back in July 1983, and there is plenty of speculation she could be heading out on a special tour.

Days after reports about possible plans, Madonna has given everyone something to think about after wiping her page on the social media site.

Now, anyone visiting her profile will be met with a blank page which simply reads ‘no posts yet’, while she still has 18.6 million followers.

t comes after reports the Like A Prayer hitmaker could be ‘going back to basics’ by highlighting her best-selling songs on tour as a way to introduce her back catalogue to a new generation of fans with some huge shows, which will apparently include dates at London’s O2 Arena.

‘Madonna is trying something completely new – and really giving fans, young and old, what they want,’ a source told The Sun. ‘She wants to capitalise on tracks like Frozen and Material Girl popping off on TikTok, and introduce her back catalogue to an entirely new generation.

‘Previously she has always wanted to be forward-facing and focus on whatever new album she’s plugging. But now, in her mid-60s, she is going back to basics and once again reinventing herself.

‘That being said, it’s sure to be no-holds-barred and suitably risqué. Her last Madame X tour was in small theatres, but this one will be in stadiums, with the O2 already confirmed. It’s massively exciting.’

According to the outlet, the Material Girl star has already held a string of meetings with American director Jamie King, 51, about ideas for the potential tour.

Madonna – who first entered the US Billboard Hot 100 with 1983’s Holiday – admitted last summer she is desperate to get back out on the road again, and she said at the time: ‘I want to go on tour again. I’m a creature of the stage. That’s my happy place.’

Last August, Madonna became the first female artist to earn Billboard 200 top 10 albums in each decade since the 1980s after her remix compilation Finally Enough Love debuted at number eight in the chart.

The Vogue singer registered her first top 10 on the Billboard 200 chart in October 1984 with her self-titled record, which went on to peak at number eight.
