Madonna can’t seem to catch a break with her tributes these days.

After generally underwhelming the world with her Prince tribute at the Billboard Music Awards, the former Material Girl has been savaged for her tribute to the victims of the terrorist siege at a gay nightclub in Orlando over the weekend.

On Sunday, Madonna posted the message, “Stop Hate. Stop Violence.” The message was accompanied by a photo of her infamous kiss with Britney Spears at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards. The photo was emblazoned with the words, “Gay or straight no hate.”

The message didn’t go over well with a number of Twitter users, who saw the post as an attempt by the singer to make the tragedy all about her.

“Are you serious right now? This isn’t about you and your fake ass kiss for publicity. I would think you’d know better,” one critic hissed, adding that “the pic was completely unnecessary and self promoting.”

Another naysayer suggested, “@Madonna let’s hit that ‘log out’ button now mom.”

“Hunny…. why…?” another asked.

“Expected better from you, actually,” yet another critic lamented.

“Way to capatililze [sic] on the lgbtqa community with ‘bisexuality, I kissed a girl for momentary gain’ Katy perry bullshit. over it,” went another critique.

The singer appears to have picked up on the collective outcry. Subsequent tweets from her account contained similar messages of support for the Orlando victims — accompanied by photos of people who aren’t her.

9 Shocking Wardrobe Malfunctions From Janet Jackson to Lenny Kravitz (Photos)

Janet Jackson's Super Slip

The most famous wardrobe malfunction to date happened when a piece of Janet Jackson's costume came loose during the 2004 Super Bowl half-time show. Justin Timberlake pulled away part of her bustier, exposing a right breast to 140 million viewers -- and sparking a controversy that landed both CBS and Jackson in court. The incident became the most recorded and replayed moment in TiVo history, enticing an estimated 35,000 new subscribers and launched an eight-year FCC investigation.

Mariah Carey Splits Her Dress

There was nothing "Beautiful" about Mariah Carey's language in 2013 as the singer couldn't stop herself from swearing when her dress split on ABC's "Good Morning America" during a live performance. "Oh, s---," Carey said while climbing a staircase on the "GMA" summer concert series stage in Central Park. "You didn't hear that. I said 'shoot,'" she quickly added.
Kristen Stewart's Nip Slip

"Twilight" actress Kristen Stewart had to face both ex-boyfriend Robert Pattinson and public embarrassment at the 2014 Hollywood Film Awards when the metallic top of her Chanel dress fell a little too low and exposed her nipples as she took the stage to present Julianne Moore with an award for "Still Alice."
Beyonce Pops Her Top...

...but doesn't skip a beat. Beyonce proved to be a true professional at New York's Global Citizen Festival in September 2014 when her plunging white blouse flew open revealing her flesh-colored bra to a crowd of thousands in Central Park. However, the star simply smiled, placed a hand over her chest and continued to turn in a "bootylicious" performance.

Madonna Trips!

Even the Material Girl can have a wardrobe malfunction, as Madonna proved at the Brit Awards in London in February 2015. The 56-year-old singer slipped and tumbled down a short set of stairs while performing "Living for Love" from her "Rebel Heart" album, later blaming her elaborate costume. "My beautiful cape was tied too tight," she said. "But nothing can stop me and love really lifted me up!"

Bebe Rexha Looks the Other Way
