Piers Morgan calls Madonna a 'grotesque trainwreck embarrassment'

Piers Morgan has been criticised after calling Madonna a 'grotesque trainwreck embarrassment' ahead of her 40th anniversary world tour. His comments were labelled "unnecessarily cruel" as he took aim at the superstar following her announcement video.

“She’s too old, she shouldn’t be doing this schtick. It’s all over,” the 57-year-old said as he spoke to co-host Jeremy Kyle on Wednesday, January 18. Madonna, 64, revealed the news by taking to Instagram to play a game of truth or dare with her famous friends.

Comedian Amy Schumer challenged her to play "your greatest hits" on a world tour, a challenge which Madonna accepted. But taking to Twitter, Piers wrote: "I think Madonna’s become the biggest cringe-making fiasco in world entertainment."
