Born and raised in a Catholic home, music legend Madonna said that she’d like to have a conversation with the Pope to talk about Jesus’ perspective on women’s rights.
In a candid interview with Australia’s Andrew Denton, the singer says she’d like to ask Pope Francis: “Don’t you think Jesus would agree that a woman has the right to choose what to do with her body?”
The 60-year-old pop star said she’d ask, “Let’s talk about Jesus’ point of view about women. Let’s talk about it. What do you really think he thought of women?”
“I think he would be open to having that conversation with me,” she added.

Madonna’s comment came at a time when many Hollywood socialites are threatening to boycott Georgia over the ‘heartbeat bill’ signed by Governor Brian Kemp, a law that bans abortion after the fetal heartbeat can be detected.
