Madonna received backlash for questioning a fan in a wheelchair for sitting during her concert

After moving closer to the edge of the stage to hear the fan’s response, Madonna realized the individual was using a wheelchair.

“Oh. Okay,” Madonna replied, acknowledging her mistake by calling herself “politically incorrect.”

“Sorry about that,” she added, attempting to rectify the situation by expressing gratitude for the fan’s presence.

While Madonna’s actions appeared to stem from a genuine misunderstanding, some fans were still upset by her decision to publicly call out the fan, considering there could be various health or personal reasons for someone to remain seated during a concert. Additionally, some found her apology lacking in sincerity.
