Madonna has been making headlines recently for her dance moves and many people have mixed emotions towards her twerking.
The 58-year-old pop icon most recently showed off her newfound twerking skills in a trailer for Carpool Karaoke with James Corden, which airs Wednesday night.
In a segment on ITV’s Good Morning Britain, TV personality Piers Morgan called Madonna’s twerking on the promo “utterly embarrassing,” saying it made him feel physically sick.
Morgan also called the pop star a “walking, talking train wreck” and said that it was embarrassing to watch “a 58 year old” twerking.

Madonna addressed the issue of ageism in a recent interview with Billboard. The Vogue singer said she believes that women experience ageism more than men.
