Madonna's Concert Tragedy

While constructing the stage for Madonna's Sticky and Sweet concert in Marseilles, France Thursday morning, the stage fell apart, leaving one worker dead and six others injured!!

The 53-year-old Frenchman died when the stage collapsed on top of him. Needless to say, the concert has been canceled and Madonna is "devastated." Out of the six who survived, two workers are severely injured. But Officer David Goddin reassures CNN,"At this point we don't know how it happened, but we are confident no one else is still under the rubble."

Madonna released a statement saying,"My prayers go out to those who were injured and their families along with my deepest sympathy to all those affected by this heartbreaking news."
