Madonna put on quite a show while performing at the Sandbox Pride held at Terminal 5 in New York City on Thursday night. The Queen of Pop sprung a surprise on her fans as she invited Saucy Santana onstage to deliver a mash-up of her hit song “Material Girl.”

The pop icon made sure to show out for the occasion, kicking off New York City’s Pride weekend in an Adidas outfit that included a hoodie and matching yellow shorts. She put her own personal flair and edge on the look by adding a plunging bustier top and sheer tights.

The “Papa Don’t Preach” hitmaker later changed into a black cropped vest that was emblazoned with patches of the letter “M” allover. Underneath she wore a long-sleeve sheer purple top and tiny sequin shorts. Madonna added a bevy of silver chain bracelets to the look and leather fingerless gloves.

Rounding out the musician’s ensemble was a pair of black combat boots. The shoe style included a thick buckle around the ankle, chunky outsole and stacked block heel.
