Who: Madonna

When: Rome, September 2008

Madonna upset Catholics by dedicating her hit 'Like a Virgin' to the Pope. Her shock tribute has been labelled "disrespectful" by the Catholic community. During the show, Madonna said: "I dedicate this song to the Pope because I'm a child of God. All of you are also children of God." Italian papers called the dedication a "surprising provocation".

It is not the first time Madonna has upset the Catholic Church. One of her previous tours was branded one of the most "Satanic shows in the history of humanity", after she staged a mock crucifixion during a show in Rome in 2006.
