Singer Madonna gets twitter attacked for calling her adopted son, Rocco the N-word on Instagram. The megastar posted a photo of her son boxing training with a caption on Instagram page that stirred up a racial uproar on social media.

"No one messes with Dirty Soap! Mama said knock you out! #disni-a." Madonna wrote.

Once infuriated fans read the caption, Madonna fired back, "Ok let me start this again. #get off of my d-k haters!"

Later, the singer received the backlash and posted an apology justifying her post saying, "I am sorry if I offended anyone with my use of the N word on Instagram. It was not meant as a racial slur.. I am not a racist. There's no way to defend the use of the word. It was all about intention... It was used as a term of endearment toward my son who is white. I appreciate that it's a provocative word and I apologize if it gave people the wrong impression. Forgive me."
