The singer's decision to perform "Live to Tell" while mock-crucified was – not surprisingly – the most controversial element of her 2006 Confessions tour. After the Vatican condemned her as blasphemous, the singer issued a statement, saying, "My performance is neither anti-Christian, sacrilegious or blasphemous.

She added, "I believe in my heart that if Jesus were alive today he would be doing the same thing."
