Madonna Attacks Intolerance In Europe
Blessedly unhurt by her fall on stage and looking to make even more headlines and sell her new album, Madonna has lashed out at intolerance in Europe, saying it is now so high in France and across the continent that “it feels like Nazi Germany.” Speaking to French radio station Europe 1, Madonna said “antisemitism is at an all-time high†in France and elsewhere in Europe (really? more than during the Holocaust?), and likened the atmosphere to the period when German fascism was on the ascent. “We’re living in crazy times,†the 56-year-old singer said, calling the situation “scary,†and lamenting what she described as France’s lost tradition of welcoming diversity and honoring freedom.
