SHE is an ‘unapologetic b***h’ but even Madonna knows when she’s gone too far. She has said sorry for comparing herself to people like Nelson Mandela.
The 56-year-old shared an image on social media of historical figures like Mandela, Martin Luther King Jr and Bob Marley with their faces tied up in black rope to advertise her album Rebel Heart.
The posts were later slammed online with many calling her a racist for her “disrespectful” posts.
The Material Girl tried to explain herself on Facebook overnight.
“I’m sorry. I’m not comparing my self to anyone. I’m admiring and acknowledging there Rebel Hearts. This is niether a crime or an insult or racist! (sic)” she said. “I also did it with Michael jaclson and frida khalo and marilyn monroe. Am I saying I am them. NO. I’m saying they are Rebel Hearts too. (sic)
“And. I didn’t do it. My fans did. And I just re posted those photos. My fans aren’t racist either,” she said. “If they put me in the same category as these other people. Thank you. I’m very flattered and I hope one day to live up to 1 100th of what those people accomplished.”
In December, she was forced to release songs from her new album, Rebel Heart, after 13 unfinished demos were leaked online, including Rebel Heart, Unapologetic B***h and B***h I’m Madonna.
