Millions of faithful are
in U.S to witness the presence supreme pontiff this week, and everyone's
extremely excited about it.
Madonna amidst the crowd
dedicated a performance of “La Vie en Rose’’ to the Pope on Thursday night at a
concert in Philadelphia. (The Pope will visit
the City of Brotherly Love this
weekend.) People posted a video of it.
Madonna asked the crowd "He
seems very open-minded, right?". It's not totally clear whether that
admiration goes both ways: As she admitted, she's ticked off the Catholic
Church on at least three separate occasions, leading a number of high-ranking
Catholics to call for her ex-communication.
But it's NBD as far as
she's concerned. "It shows the Vatican cares. Deeply," she joked.
"Since the Pope -- Popey-Wopey -- is on his
way over here, I will dedicate this song to him," she continued.
"Because it's a love song, and I firmly believe that love does make the
world go 'round."
Then: "Honestly, I don't think there's that
much difference between me and the Pope."
Well. She also thinks there's not much difference
between her and MLK, Nelson Mandela, and Kanye, so the Pope isn't too much of a reach.
People also reported Madonna teased the Pope was
"stalking" her, since he's been making the rounds to the same East
Coast cities where she's been performing her Rebel Heart Tour. "Either
he's a copycat or he's secretly in love with me," she said
