Madonna is catching some heat for wearing Chanel’s gun heel shoes to the NYC screening of her film "Filth and Wisdom" in which the queen of pop (and controversy) made her directorial debut.
Mothers Against Murder And Aggression (MAMAA) which is a murder victim’s group labeled Madonna as "uncaring".
Chanel’s creative director Karl Lagerfeld was inspired to create the gun toting footwear by an image of a gun he saw and then gave to Chanel’s shoe designer Laurence Decade and told him to make the heat-packing shoes.
