Madonna has defended her decision to sell an NFT model of her vagina.
Earlier this week, the singer unveiled the model, which features as part of a fully nude collection of 3D non-fungible tokens (NFTs).
Her fans shared their confusion after she revealed the NFT video, titled “Mother of Creation”, which includes an up-close display of her vagina as she gives birth to insects, butterflies and trees.
Acknowledging the divisiveness of the video on Instagram, Madonna , 63, told Beeple creator Mike Winkelmann: “Not often that a robot centipede crawls out of my vagina.”
“I’m doing what women have been doing since the beginning of time, which is giving birth. But on a more existential level, I’m giving birth to art and creativity and we would be lost without both.”
She added: “I think it’s really important that a lot of thought and conversation went into creating these videos.”
The proceeds from the NFT will go to her chosen charities, National Bail Out, V-Day and Voices of Children.
