‘Politically incorrect. Sorry about that’: Madonna apologises for telling wheelchair user to stand at concert

Awkward moment with fan happened during US leg of singer’s Celebration tour

Madonna has been filmed apologising to a concertgoer in a wheelchair, after she initially questioned why they weren’t standing up while she performed.

In footage taken during the US leg of her Celebration tour and shared on social media in recent days, the singer, speaking on her microphone, tells the audience member: “Take this ride with me! What are you doing sitting down over there? What are you doing sitting down?”, before walking over to the person to cheers from the audience.
