Madonna was performing at Stockholm's Tele 2 Arena when she broke down in tears and asked fans for a moment of silent for the victims of the heart wrenching Paris terrorist attack.
"I need to take this moment to acknowledge the
tragedy, the tragic killings, assassinations and the senseless ending of
precious life that occurred last night in Paris," she said.
"It's
disturbed me all day, and it's been really hard to get through the
show, because in many ways I feel torn, like why I am up here dancing
and having fun when people are crying over the loss of their loved ones?" she continued.
"That
is exactly what these people want to do, they want to shut us up, they
want to silence us. But we won't let them, there is no one in this world
who should have the right to stop us doing what we love." Says Madonna.
The American singer after giving her heart felt condolence launched into an acoustic version of her hit song ‘Like a Prayer’
