American figure skater Amber Glenn was left shocked at this year's Milan Cortina Winter Olympics when she received a surprise message from a leading celeb.
The star happened to be none other than the Queen of Pop, Madonna. The singer sent out a personal video message of encouragement just before her women's short program. Madonna told Glenn that she had seen her perform 'Like a Prayer' and therefore this was a very special moment for her.
The song she'd chosen for her routine was related to Madonna, and that's why the celeb commented on how honored she felt to have the skater perform to her tune.
Madonna mentioned more about how she was beyond blown away by her strength, beauty, and bravery. She urged her to go get that gold and never look back.
Glenn reacted with pure shock, covering her mouth and stating how she was literally shaking when she found out Madonna was talking to her.
Madonna's support highlighted the growing intersection of sport and pop culture, and Glenn later thanked her idol for backing athletes' artistic decisions.
