The Tribers’ Best Pictures from an unforgettable tour
Voting has ended at the MadonnaTribe Forum and our members picked up the two best pictures taken by our readers at the Sticky & Sweet Tour concerts this year.
133 awesome images were shared by the Tribers over the past few weeks. It was really hard for the Tribe Team to select 60 images to be voted on the Forum as all the entries had something special and each and every one was a winner on their own.

In a double run of multiple polls two images received the most votes.
The iconic picture you see below shot by Neil Allcock at the Sticky & Sweet Tour concert at Wembley Stadium on September 11 was the most voted in both finale poll A and B.
This is how Neil explains why this is his favourite Madonna picture: “I love this shot because in an age were images are enhanced and airbrushed to create perfection, you can see that Madonna looks naturally beautiful, no digital enhancement needed. She is scanning the sea of fans, which at a venue as large as Wembley Stadium must have been a daunting yet exciting view. Madonna in this image looks beautiful, I love her eyes, the placing of her hands on her forehead frames and directs the viewer to her eyes. Thanks again to Madonna for the experience, Cardiff, Las Vegas and London.”
Congratulations to Neil who will receive a merchandise coupon courtesy of Fanfire, the home of Madonna’s Official Merchandise Store.
M-Triber Lauren Ortiz took the picture below on 0ctober 7, 2008 at the Madison Square Garden.
“This is the best pic I took because it is different from any pics I’ve seen from the tour”, Lauren said when she submitted her pic – and the Tribers certainly agree as this was the second most voted picture in both polls.
Lauren will receive a copy of “European Sticky & Sweet Tour Memories“, the new book by Frédéric Gilloteau that looks back at the European leg of the Sticky & Sweet Tour, published by Editions Nemo Media.
Thanks again to all those who entered, to those who voted, to the cool folks at Fanfire.com, and to Fred Gilloteau and Nemo Media.
