Madonna, accused of narcissist for posting this post on Instagram after the Manchester bombing
Madonna has been accused of being a "narcissist" after sharing a post on Instagram paying tribute to the victims of the Manchester bombing.
The 58-year-old singer shared a photo of herself with Ariana Grande, who was performing at the Manchester Arena this Monday night before the suicide attack, and accompanied her with the following message: "Thank God my friend is fine. Let us pray. all for the innocent victims who are not. For their families and for Manchester. "
The post drew a lot of criticism because the singer mentioned Ariana Grande before paying tribute to the deceased and injured.
One wrote: "OK Madonna I love you. I've been a fan of yours for years. But this post is misplaced. Of course Ariana is fine (physically) because she was surrounded by security. Your main target should be the people who died or they were injured. You shouldn't have used this as an opportunity to share a photo of you with Ariana. It's not about you, is it? "
Another added: "Choose your words wisely. Who the hell cares (Ariana)? What about those who lost their lives or their families?"
A third wrote: "Being grateful for Ariana is fine, but it should be at the end of the post. Showing respect for deceased children should be first on our minds."
Another added: "This post is damned unnecessary! Think more before posting this kind of shit. Overly narcissistic."
However, many Mandona fans came to her defense, insisting that she encouraged the unit.
One noted: "I don't see the problem with her words. She is simply expressing her happiness that her friend is safe and then encouraging people to pray for the victims. She is calling for unity, so I don't think her words are narcissists. "
Another fan wrote: "There are too many rude and disrespectful people here. Leave Madonna alone and get a life. It's her Instagram and her personal message of condolence. So what's the problem?"
Madonna was not the only star who ignited the networks after her publication after the attack.
Kim Kardashian deleted a tweet with a photo of her and Ariana, after fans of hers said it was "inappropriate." "We will never forget when you posted an inappropriate photo and made the hashtag #Manchesterbombing yours. (Screenshots are forever)," wrote one.
