Madonna gives blessing to ‘Like a Virgin’ nun
By Josh Haggis
Madonna has given her blessing to the singing nun who has released a cover of Like a Virgin.
Sister Cristina Scuccia – who won the Italian version of The Voice in June – unveiled her gospel version of the iconic hit earlier this week. Listen to it here.
Scuccia’s transformation of the track has evidently caught Madonna’s ear, as the Queen of Pop has taken to Instagram to share some pictures of herself photoshopped next to the 26-year-old nun.
The first picture – taken from the song’s original video – was shared with the caption: “Like A Virgin? #bitinghard”
On the second photo, Madonna added: “Sisters for Life! #touchedfortheveryfirsttime”
Meanwhile, Simon Cowell has reportedly persuaded the Queen of Pop to perform on this year’s X Factor final – find out more here.
