The Queen of Pop Maddona, who managed to raise eyebrows after she delivered a fiery speech at the recently held Women's march in Washington, recently took to social media to 'clarify some very important things'.
The Secret Service has reportedly said it will investigate her claim that she has thought about 'blowing up the White House', informs the Daily Mail.
The 58-year-old singer took to Instagram to clear up any confusion.
"Yesterday's Rally. was an amazing and beautiful experience. I came and performed Express Yourself and thats exactly what i did. However I want to clarify some very important things. " she captioned a photo of herself with the words "I choose love!"
Madonna explained that she does not encourage violence and felt that parts of her speech were taken "wildly out of context."
"My speech began with ' I want to start a revolution of love.' I then go on to take this opportunity to encourage women and all marginalized people to not fall into despair but rather to come together and use it as a starting point for unity and to create positive change in the world," she wrote.
"I spoke in metaphor and I shared two ways of looking at things - one was to be hopeful, and one was to feel anger and outrage, which I have personally felt. However, I know that acting out of anger doesn't solve anything. And the only way to change things for the better is to do it with love."
Madonna concluded the post by saying, "It was truly an honor to be part of an audience chanting 'we choose love.
