Madonna: Having 'Lovers Who Are 3 Decades Younger' Makes People 'Very Uncomfortable'
Madonna is further proving why she's the ultimate "Unapologetic Bitch" in a new interview.
For the 150th anniversary issue of Harper’s Bazaar, Madge sounded off on the ageism and sexism she's experienced in her life and career. "I've always felt oppressed," she said in quotes revealed by People. She continues:
"I know a lot of people would go, 'Oh, that's ridiculous for you to say that. You're a successful white, wealthy pop star,' but I’ve had the shit kicked out of me for my entire career, and a large part of that is because I'm female and also because I refuse to live a conventional life."
The 58-year-old added:
"I've created a very unconventional family. I have lovers who are three decades younger than me. This makes people very uncomfortable. I feel like everything I do makes people feel really uncomfortable...I don’t believe there’s a certain age where you can’t say and feel and be who you want to be."
