    The one-and-only Madonna has launched her Rebel Heart Tour — and thanks to newly added tour dates, Houston fans don’t have to skip the Material Girl beat.

    Live Nation has announced that the 64-city world tour now includes a stop at downtown’s Toyota Center slotted for January 12. Houston is one of only two Texas dates. Madonna will also perform at San Antonio’s AT&T Center on January 10.

    The Rebel Heart Tour kicked off in Montreal, Quebec, on September 9 with The Montreal Gazette proclaiming it, “a spare-no-expense theatrical spectacle that artfully flowed from showstopper to showstopper, Madonna proved once again that she doesn’t just crave the spotlight — she owns it;” and the Associated Press raving, "Pole dancers dressed like nuns, Mike Tyson and nonstop theatrics. Welcome to the church of Madonna.”

    The tour touts the singer's thirteenth studio album and tour namesake Rebel Heart. Released in March, the record boasts singles: "Living for Love," "Ghosttown" and "Bitch I'm Madonna," all featured on the concert set list along with familiar faves including "Holiday," "Material Girl," and "Like A Virgin."

    Tickets go on sale at 10 am on September 21 at Live Nation's website. Tickets for the Houston show will also be available from Toyota Center, at most Houston-area Randall’s Stores and by phone at 1-866-4-HOUTIX.

    As well, Citi cardmembers will be eligible for a presale opportunity from Thursday, September 17, at 10 am through Friday, September 18, at 5 pm.

    For complete tour and ticket information, head to Madonna's website.
