Please let her have spent 1.3mil on a sale painting. Rich people getting scammed is my favorite.

$1.3 million wouldn't have been that much money to her even back then at that point of her career

This must be a publicity stunt because she just announced a world tour.

Madonna has just announced ‘The Celebration Tour’: 4 decades of music and her greatest hits!!

I submitted a post a few minutes ago

It's a copy no doubt.

It could also be a "version" of that particular painting that artist did as well. I'm thinking about the different variants of "The Scream" that are in four different museums.

Her art collection is insane; she also owns Frieda Kahlo's "My Birth" along with several other pieces.

You can say what you want about her, but she definitely isn't/wasn't stupid with her money with those kinds of investments

In school I had borrowed the frida biography from the library and I was reading it before class started and I got in trouble because the teacher saw me looking at the photo section and My Birth was the one she decided to zone in on. She called my parents. I did try to explain it was from a book the school library approved.. and that it wasn't during class.

What on earth? Was this Catholic school? It's literally a woman giving birth, nothing wrong with that!

if madonna was down she'd say "return all the art you stole and I'll give this back"
