Madonna speaks about her RnR Hall of Fame induction

Incoming Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Madonna considers herself in good company.

In a statement to The Plain Dealer – the major daily newspaper of Cleveland, Ohio, home of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame – she said:

“I was fortunate to have inducted my idol David Bowie a few years back, so to be included alongside him and so many other amazing artists that have come before me is an honor.”

The statement was sent in through her publicist on Friday.

Madonna did indeed do the honors when Bowie was enshrined in 1996, although he chose not to attend the festivities.

Madonna is expected to be on hand for the Rock Hall’s 23rd annual induction ceremony Monday, March 10, at New York City’s Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, her publicist said.
