Madonna explains that her bizarre “endorsement” of Obama during a concert on Monday was meant to be “ironic.”

“‘We have a black Muslim in the White House! Now that’s some amazing sh-t,” Madonna said during a concert during a speech where she admitted to feeling dizzy.

Madonna released a statement to clarify the matter to Prez Hilton

I was being ironic on stage. Yes I know Obama is not a Muslim (though I know that plenty of people in this country think he is.) And what if he were? The point I was making is that a good man is a good man no matter who he prays to. I don’t care what religion Obama is – nor should anyone else in America

Oh the irony.
