In a series of controversial events, Madonna has added exposing a fan to that list. However, the young Brisbane native was not offended at all by the incident, regardless of how others may view the shocking moment.
Josephine Georgiou was brought up on stage by the “Like a Virgin” singer at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre in Australia at her Rebel Heart tour show on Thursday night. When the 17-year-old was seated on stage in front thousands of Madonna’s fans, the star pulled down the girl’s top to expose her left breast.
Josephine, however, is insistent that she was not “humiliated” in the slightest and vowed that there is no possibility of her taking legal action against the pop icon, because she actually enjoyed every moment of the experience.
Bang Showbiz outlines details of the moment the teen took to the stage.
“The incident occurred after Josephine was invited on stage during the tour, for Madonna to pull down the girl’s corset-style top, quipping: ‘The kind of girl you just want to slap on the a**.’ The songstress then added: ‘Oh s***. Oh sorry, sexual harassment… you can do the same to me.’”
This is just the most recent in a chain of shocking incidents that have occurred while Madge has been performing her tour Down Under.
When asked about the incident, the teen explained why the experience was “the best moment of her life.”
“Seriously, why would I sue Madonna for the best moment of my life? It was the best night. Only I get to decide if I’m humiliated or not. Why would people assume I am humiliated by my own breast, nipple or body?”
The teen added that she was not angered because previously she was showered by compliment by the 57-year-old superstar.
“It’s hilarious to me how much of a big deal it is to everyone. Madonna was calling me a Victoria’s Secret model the whole time I was on stage, which is so flattering.”
Before the show began on Wednesday night, Madonna caused fans to become angered due to appearing on stage a full three hours late. Many ticket holders opted to leave and get refunds as opposed to waiting for the Queen of Pop to perform.
When Madonna finally did make an appearance, she blamed the fans instead of apologizing for her tardiness.
“It’s you people that get here early, that’s the problem.”
In addition to the two mentioned incidents, Madge has been taking to the stage with alcohol in hand following her entrance, continuing to sip away while performing. The star has also become quite emotional on several occasions while performing this leg of the tour. The emotions seem to come due to the heated custody battle she and ex-husband Guy Ritchie are in the middle of over their 15-year-old son Rocco, as the Daily Mail shares.
Madonna has been fighting to win back custody of her son, who is residing with his father in London by choice. Madge and Guy have been a part of one court hearing that resulted in Rocco being able to continue on in London. The singer has expressed her sadness at not having her son in her care, and it is clearly taking a toll on the superstar. The Material Girl had even gone to the lengths of flying to London to bring her son back to the U.S., but Rocco was insistent on staying put.
