Like millions the world over, Madonna has expressed shock and disappointment following the death of an unarmed black man at the the hands of of a white policeman.
As reported, jaw-dropping footage captured the final moments of George Floyd‘s life – as he audibly complained of the strain and pain he felt as an officer knelt on his neck for seven minutes.
He died shortly after.
The scenes have sparked global fury, a sentiment the singer is echoing.

More than your favs are saying
Shaun king is a fraud and he is not black.
Glad celebrities are speaking out. And is anyone shocked Madonna spoke up? She tries to be involved in everything
Bc she’s been fighting for the rights of women, gays and minorities since the beginning of her career. And spoke up when it was risky to her career and give zero F’s about making conservative white Americans uncomfortable to do what was right.
@Rashad absolutely 👏👏 people soon forget what she’s done to help all you listed! Well said!
And most black people still hate her.
Exactly.
Gays & minorities, maybe. But women? She ushered in the stripping female singer prototype 90% of today’s stage singers emulate. If being naked liberates women en route to pay equality, be it. Just do NOT say she fought for women’s rights. Normalized musical strippers, maybe. Made shock value (in order to sell) mainstream. But feminism she did not help advance nor (re)define.
How about instead of talking, she use some of that 800m and considerable influence to make a difference for Floyd’s family? We don’t need her words unless it’s in a song…
A song that no one would buy anyway?
When was the last time y’all bought her music?
Dont tell people what to do with their money
U didnt give her any of that 800 million dollars.
She worked hard for it and she has a right to do what she likes with her money.
Just because shes a celebrity that doesn’t mean she’s obliged to help people or give people money.
How can she say F the police when I’m sure she still has 24/7 security. I’m lost. Aim that negativity towards those guys and not all police. Because if majority of police quit these streets would be worse than what you see
not a fan at all of hers but it s about time she said something that actually makes sense and not for cloat..
She tagged Shaun King…. Madonna is a joke
My girl Madonna 🤳🏽
Mad respect for Madonna
Get them Madge!
