Madonna has been rushed to a New York City hospital after being found unresponsive, Page Six has exclusively revealed.

The pop icon, 64, was discovered at a residence on Saturday before being admitted to the ICU where she was intubated overnight.

Madonna’s longtime manager, Guy Oseary, shared on Instagram Wednesday that his client had “developed a serious bacterial infection which led to a several-day stay in the ICU.”

The “Vogue” crooner is now out of the intensive care unit and recovering in a regular ward of the unidentified hospital.

The singer’s oldest daughter, Lordes Leon, 26, has reportedly been by her superstar mother’s bedside throughout the entire ordeal.

It’s currently unclear what kind of bacterial infection Madonna developed.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 23,000 Americans die from a range of serious bacterial infections each year.

Madonna was set to kick off her highly-anticipated “Celebration” tour in less than three weeks, but the shows have now been postponed amid the health crisis.

The “Like A Virgin” hitmaker was scheduled to play 53 shows across North America and Europe, kicking off in Vancouver on Jul. 15.

“At this time, we will need to pause all commitments, which includes the tour,” Oseary wrote. “We will share more details with you as soon as we have them, including a new start date for the tour and for rescheduled shows.”

The Grammy winner promised to perform her greatest hits from her 1983 self-titled debut album through to her most recent record, 2019’s “Madame X.”

On Wednesday, just three days before her hospitalization, Madonna took to social media to celebrate her twin daughters’ graduation from elementary school.

“2 Kweens!!!! Happy Graduation!” the proud mom wrote alongside a photo of 10-year-olds Stelle and Estere.

Meanwhile, back in May, Madonna spent Mother’s Day in New York City with all six of her children. In addition to Lourdes, Stelle and Estere she also has sons Rocco, 22, and David Banda, 17, and daughter, Mercy, 17.

Madonna’s current relationship status is unclear. Back in May, sources spilled that the crooner was getting “ridiculously close” to 29-year-old singer Maluma at rehearsals ahead of her tour.
