Madonna has shared a celebration post after her 65th birthday with a montage of clips and snaps from the big day, accompanied by her iconic Vogue.
This comes just weeks after her alarming health scare where the pop icon was rushed to hospital.
Madonna worried fans when her manager Guy Oseary announced she had suffered a serious bacterial infection which left her in ICU for several days.
She was found unresponsive and rushed to hospital for treatment, leaving her family fearing ‘the worst’.
However, she’s since returned to social media and updated fans about her tour, and she’s now got her dancing shoes back on.
In the birthday post, she wrote: ‘It’s great to be Alive………….. and Amazing to Be able to put on my dancing shoes and Celebrate my Birthday! 🎉🎉🎉
‘I’m So Grateful. Thank you Lisbon and to all who made it possible!’

The clips saw her dancing with friends, riding a horse on the beach, loved ones cheering her, and a rendition of Elton John’s Your Song.
‘I’m gonna wreck the place with my jewels,’ Madonna opened the clip telling the camera, as she showed off her outfit.
‘Be in my background, live in my background, stay in my background,’ she added.
The music icon recently reflected on her hospital stint, saying she was ‘lucky to be alive.’
She credited love from family and friends as her ‘best medicine’, and thanked all her ‘angels who protected [her] and let [her] stay to finish doing [her] work.’
