Madonna's bathtub video has drawn a lot of clicks and criticizing comments when she considers Covid-19 as a great equalizer.

While quarantining at home, singer Madonna shared an ominous video showing her in a bathtub on Instagram. What attracts people more was when she talked about coronavirus and called it 'the great equalizer'. Watch the video here:

From a bathtub fulfilled with rose petals and milk water and a theme of harmonious piano, the pop star said: "That's the thing about Covid-19. It doesn't care about how rich you are, how famous you are, how funny you are, how smart you are, where you live, how old you are, what amazing stories you can tell. It's the great equalizer and what's terrible about it is what's great about it. What's terrible about it is that it's made us all equal in many ways - and what's wonderful about it is that it's made us all equal in many ways. Like I used to say at the end of 'Human Nature' every night, we are all in the same boat. And if the ship goes down, we're all going down together."

Madonna gets criticized for her statement about coronavirus. She has deleted the post now as the comment section was flooded with haters

After the video was posted, Madonna received a lot of comments criticizing her. A user noted that though everyone can die due to this pandemic, the poor suffer more than anybody. Meanwhile, another user wrote that the rich still can afford the things necessary to survive and the singer cannot understand the vulnerable situation out there to trivialize the pandemic now.

The current situation of the coronavirus outbreak is serious when many places over the world cannot provide enough medical care for the patients

Even Perez Hilton - a celeb blogger - also commented that Madonna's video was so dumb and 'uneducated'. Up to now, there are 382,479 cases positive with coronavirus and about 15,000 people died because of this deadly virus.
