Madonna has a “bad knee” after years of dancing in high heels.
Madonna has revealed her health struggles
The 67-year-old pop star has explained that she doesn’t work out every day because of the damage caused to her knee.
Speaking to Interview magazine, Madonna said: “I have a bad knee now.
“I have no cartilage in it, thanks to dancing for so long in high heels and running on pavement and doing Ashtanga yoga.”
Madonna has been forced to change her gym plan over the last 12 months.
The chart-topping singer – who is one of the best-selling musicians of all time – shared: “Up until a year ago, I was jumping on trampolines and doing dance cardio and doing a lot of what a doctor would call loading on my joints. Can’t do that anymore.”
Madonna still works out on a regular basis, but she can’t exercise with the same level of intensity as she previously did.
The Vogue hitmaker said: “So now I do Peloton bikes and the Versa Climber and high-intensity circuit training. I ride my bike outside a lot. I dance.”
Madonna is currently living in London, but the pop star has likened herself to a “gypsy”, as she likes to move to a new destination every three years.
The singer shared: “I like my house here, but I never stay anywhere more than three years. I get sick of it.
“After COVID, I went to New York. Now I’m in London.
“I like to move all the time. I have to figure out the schools. I have to find out what I’m going to do with my time. Who am I going to work with? Who’s my community? Constantly staying out of my comfort zone and not sinking into comfort keeps me feeling alive. I’m like a gypsy.”
Madonna moved to New York in the late 1970s, but she’s not currently excited about returning to the Big Apple.
The pop icon reflected: “New York’s kind of boring right now.”
She added: “I don’t miss going out in New York, but I do miss Central Park, and I really miss the Met because I used to live on 81st Street.”
