Ananova.com reports that Madonna told gay magazine Out how her nine-year-old became "obsessed" with gay issues after the MTV stunt and asked her: "Mom, you know that they say you are gay?"

She then said she explained her stage snog to Lourdes by saying that it wasn't sexual at all, telling her: "I am the mommy pop star and she is the baby pop star. I am kissing her to pass my energy on to her."
