14 DAY TRIAL // You can’t possibly expect to be someone as famous as Madonna and not be called out for saying insensitive or inappropriate things. Just now, the Queen of Pop is under heavy fire for using the N-word about her own son, Rocco.
Hours ago, the diva posted to Instagram a photo of her 13-year-old son in the boxing ring, getting some practice. The photo itself was nothing to make fans go wild with outrage, but the line she captioned it with certainly was, as the ongoing uproar confirms.
“No one messes with Dirty Soap! Mama said knock you out! #disn*gga,” Madonna wrote. In a matter of minutes, she was flooded with negative comments about how she was being totally inappropriate. Of course, there were also those who rushed to tell Madonna, in case she hadn’t noticed, that both she and Rocco were white.
If you recall, Miley Cyrus was in a similar situation several times last year, for posting tweets in which she painfully strived to sound more “ghetto.”
Madonna eventually deleted the photo, but uploaded it back with a different caption, reading, “Ok let me start this again. #get off of my [expletive] haters!”
It’s only been a few days since the singer was criticized for posting online a photo of the same Rocco with a couple of his friends, holding liquor bottles at a bar.
She explained later that the pic was shot at a party where the boys were just goofing around, but not few were those who believed she was trying to play the “cool” parent and may have actually let Rocco get all boozed up.
Even if she hadn’t, it was said, posting a photo of a minor in the presence of alcohol sent the wrong message to her young fans. Kids and booze should never mix, no matter the circumstance, her most vocal critics told her on the same social networking site.
