 The show started with a performance by Level 42 . As their performance ended , the lights started blinking all around the stadium and Finch appears on stage , looking for Madonna . He is followed by two other dancers , who jump around the stage and disappear . Then Madonna 's silhouette is visible behind a screen which has paintings by Tamara de Lempicka on it . She performs dance moves behind the screen , which starts going up slowly . She wore a black pointy corset and fishnets like the costume in the music video of " Open Your Heart " . After dancing on the stairs , using a chair as a prop , Madonna descends and starts singing the song . Later Finch joins her again and they dance together till the song ends . This was followed by the performance of " Lucky Star " during which a disco ball spun above the stage ; as Madonna and her dancers moved around it , the light from the ball flickered on them like a star . For " True Blue " , Madonna came up on the stage wearing a blue , silk taffeta dress over her corset and a blue scarf hidden in her bosom . The stage had a similar blue setting like the original music video . Madonna is backed up by her singers who play her girlfriends . At the end of the song Madonna is asked to dance again by the dancer playing her man in the performance . During " Papa Don 't Preach " Madonna wore a black leather jacket over her dress and walked around the stage while singing . The screen in the background showed portraits of Pope John Paul II and then @-@ President of the U.S. Ronald Reagan , along with scenes of John Perry III 's short film , The Nightmare , ending with the words " Safe Sex " , as Madonna finished the song . She dedicated the song to the Pope , marking her first conflict with the Vatican , as Pope John Paul II urged Italian fans to boycott her concerts .
