Madonna is seriously defending herself against criticism she received after she posted some Instagram photos of Nelson Mandela,Bob Marley and other, that were altered to look like her own image on her new album.
Madonna's cover for the album Rebel Heart is a closeup of her face with black string on it. Her social media posts show the faces of the great men doctored to make it appear as though they have similar string on their faces.
So many of her fans consider the posts offensive.
In a statement released late Friday night, Madonna explained that she was not comparing herself to them but acknowledging that they were rebels.Read.
“When I repost these images i am saying YES! These people are all Rebel Hearts in one way or another from Martin Luther King to Jesus to Nelson Mandela to John Lennon. YES! Lets [sic] celebrate them! The world needs more people like them. I hope to one day accomplish. 1 100th of what these Rebel Hearts have accomplished.
“As I Said in a previous post “I walk in the footsteps of Giants” and i will continue to do so G*D willing. They are my guiding light. #rebelheart #livingforlove.”
