Madonna has dated Tupac Shakur. But she never publicised much about him. Now, her close friend Rosie Perez is shedding light on their relationship. She recently said on The Drew Barrymore Show that she played the matchmaker between the two.
She recently said on The Drew Barrymore Show that she played the matchmaker between the two. At the 1993 Soul Train Music Awards, the Oscar nominee recalled that her date was late, so the late rapper accompanied her into the hall.
“He said, ‘You know what, I’m gonna go with you, we’re gonna walk up in there, we’re gonna act like we’re on a date, and he’s going to die,’” the 60-year-old remembered.
At the event, the Queen of Pop asked Rosie about the Changes rap star. “She was there and she came up to me and she was like, ‘Yo, what’s up? Y’all are together?’” The Road to El Dorado star recounted. “And I said, ‘No.’ She goes, ‘Really?’ I go, ‘Yeah.’”
Following this, the Hung Up singer asked her to “hook [her] up,” To which she replied, “You got it.
Madonna’s close friend
The pair dated secretly from 1993 to 1994, according to Entertainment Weekly. But in 2015, Madonna confirmed the romance in an interview with Howard Stern, saying, “I was dating Tupac Shakur … and he got me all riled up on life in general,” adding she felt “very gangster” with him.
Madonna, the pop icon, has had a series of high-profile relationships throughout her career. Recently, however, she has kept her personal life more private, though whispers about her romantic entanglements have surfaced. Her most recent connection was allegedly with Akeem Morris, a name that has been popping up in discussions about her private life.
Despite the quietness surrounding their relationship, some of Madonna’s past love affairs remain well-known. She has famously dated several celebrities, including basketball star Dennis Rodman and actor Carlos Leon, with whom she shares her daughter Lourdes. She was also married to filmmaker Guy Ritchie, with whom she shares a son, Rocco. Each of these relationships has shaped Madonna’s public persona in different ways.
In addition to her romantic ventures, Madonna’s close friends, such as actress Debi Mazar, have recently commented on her health, revealing that the singer is recovering well after a recent hospital stay.
Madonna has certainly kept fans and the media guessing when it comes to her personal life, but her resilience and ability to maintain a sense of mystery around her relationships only adds to her legendary status in pop culture.
