Here's Her Pitch.

Madonna wants a meeting with Pope Francis to discuss abortion, the 60-year-old revealed during an interview with Australian journalist Andrew Denton. According to the pop icon, Jesus would be completely on board with abortion, viewing it as a “woman’s right to choose,” not the ending of an innocent human life.
“Let’s talk about Jesus' point of view about women. Let's talk about it,” Madonna said of a hypothetical meeting with the pope on an episode of “Andrew Denton's Interview,” The Daily Mail reported.
The two leading questions Madonna said she would pose to Pope Francis were, “What do you really think he thought of women? And don't you think Jesus would agree that a woman has the right to choose what to do with her body?”
The “Material Girl” singer seemed optimistic about a potential meeting, telling Denton, “One day he might invite me. I think this one might ... I think he would be open to having that conversation with me.”
Her optimism seems unwarranted, however. Pope Francis has been extremely vocal about the evil of abortion. Last month, for example, the Holy Father likened abortion to “hiring a hitman.”
“Is it licit to throw away a life to resolve a problem? Is it licit to hire a hitman to resolve a problem?” he asked during a Vatican-sponsored "Yes to Life!" conference, as previously highlighted by The Daily Wire.
"This is the point. Do not blame religion for something that concerns the human. It is not lawful. Never, ever eliminate a human life or hire a hitman to solve a problem,” the pope added, underscoring that opposition to abortion is not merely rooted in religion.
In January of 2017, the vocal anti-Trump activist spoke about her fantasy of blowing up the White House. “Yes I’m angry, yes I’m outraged, yes I have thought an awful lot about blowing up the White House," Madonna told Women’s March attendees in Washington, D.C., “but I know that this won’t change anything.”
In an unsuccessful attempt to stop Trump from occupying the Oval Office, Madonna tried to bride folks with an offer of "good" oral sex in exchange for a vote for then-Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
"One more thing before I introduce this genius of comedy, If you vote for Hillary Clinton, I will give you a b***job—and I am good," she told a crowd at Madison Square Garden.
Months later, Madonna said she was “ashamed” to be an American. “It just really makes me feel ashamed, ashamed to be an American, ashamed to be a human being, really," the singer whined, after lamented the "plight of Native Americans," according to The Hollywood Reporter.
