The place also displays the nun look he wore in the iconic show in which he took the stage. The outfit is displayed in the bar for everyone to see and was only removed to be worn again today at the end of The Celebration Tour in Rio. “It was a gift I gave her”, he explained.
I’ve been a fan of Madonna since I was a child. My mother was a Madonna fan, she made me a Madonna fan and I made my grandmother, who is 93 years old, a Madonna fan. To this day I am the first Brazilian fan to dance with her. Pabllo Vittar will break my record today, but I was first.

The micro-entrepreneur recalls with admiration the moment he was with Madonna almost 10 years ago. “In Italy she asked me to go up with her. She asked me to dance, I samba, I thanked her, she asked my name and said I was Brazilian.”
Recognized by fans of the American singer, songwriter, music producer, actress, writer, dancer and businesswoman, José William says he even managed to participate in The Celebration Tour in Europe precisely because of this connection with the singer. “Everything I’ve achieved to date is because people like me.”
Madonna is my life, my teacher. She taught me to express myself, to love myself. It was the soundtrack of my entire life, of all my struggle. She made me accept my homosexuality and all the adversities in life.

Lucky to have already been close to the owner of the night, Madoninho highlighted that, among the more than 1.5 million people expected for this Saturday’s megashow, he is one of the lucky ones. “These people’s dream is to be with Madonna like I was. Not only close but dancing with her on stage. So, I represent the possibility of the impossible becoming possible”, said José William.
