Madonna

Yesterday “The View” co-host Barbara Walters stuck up for Rosie O’Donnell and today Madonna did the same. Madonna told the NBC “Today” show that "People are giving Rosie a hard time. I wish they'd stop. I don't think it's fair."

Madonna said that she first heard of the dispute with Donald Trump while she was vacationing in the Indian Ocean. She quickly sent off an e-mail to O’Donnell giving her some support.

"I have to hear it from the horse's mouth," Madonna said. "Basically, I mean, she's a stand-up comic. I think all stand-up comics talk about provocative things in their monologues before shows, and I think that's a commonplace thing."

Madonna admits that she does not know the exact context of what was said, "but I have a feeling that if every stand-up comic was penalized for saying politically incorrect things or provocative things, I think they'd all be hung in the public square."

Madonna made the statements while on the “Today” show to promote the movie "Arthur and the Invisibles," to be released on Friday. "They perceive me as a queen, not a princess," she joked, adding: "I just loved the idea of playing a character where I can create a fantasy world that has nothing to do with who I am, or what people associate with me."
