\n\tMadonna<\/a>\u2018s daughter, Mercy James, is a working girl and calls one of her mom\u2019s enemies boss.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe 20-year-old, whom Madonna adopted in 2009, is reportedly working behind the scenes Watch What Happens Live<\/a> (WWHL), Bravo\u2019s late-night talk show which is hosted by Andy Cohen<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\n\tMercy\u2019s job was first revealed by comedian Rosie O\u2019Donnell when she opened up about her long-standing friendship with Madonna in a July 22 interview with People<\/a>. \u201cWe text each other often, and I just saw her daughter on Watch What Happens Live,\u201d O\u2019Donnell shared. \u201cHer daughter, Mercy, works there.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cAnd it\u2019s funny, Andy goes \u2018look!\u2019 And I thought he was introducing me to just a staff member,\u201d said O\u2019Donnell. \u201cAnd I was like, \u2018Hi, what\u2019s your name?\u2019 And she goes, \u2018Rosie, it\u2019s Mercy!\u2019 And I was like, \u2018Oh my God, what are you doing here?’\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tO\u2019Donnell added, \u201cBut she\u2019s worked there for like a year or so. So I was very happy for her and proud of her.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tA source told the Daily Mail<\/a> that Mercy \u201cis lovely, just the sweetest most adorable girl.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMadonna and Cohen have a tongue-in-cheek beef with one another stemming from her refusal to appear on Watch What Happens Live despite his dream of having her as a guest. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cMadonna still has not done the show. I\u2019m actually kind of over it because in my Notes app, I was keeping a long list of interview questions for her in case she ever did the show, and she\u2019s kind of answered a lot of it,\u201d Cohen said during a July 2023 appearance on The Howard Stern Show<\/a>. The Bravo legend revealed that he once reached out to her about coming to see her perform and received a snappy reply, \u201cShe said to me \u2018Stop having people trash me on your show.’\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tLater that year, Madonna called Cohen out while he was in the audience of her Celebration Tour at Brooklyn\u2019s Barclays Center. \u201cIf you say one more bad thing about me on your show, you\u2019re gonna get in so much trouble,\u201d the \u201cMaterial Girl\u201d singer joked from the stage. \u201cYou little troublemaking queen!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tMercy is the fourth of Madonna\u2019s six children. She shares 29-year-old Lourdes with ex-boyfriend Carlos Leon, 25-year-old Rocco and 20-year-old David with ex-husband Guy Ritchie. She went on to adopt Mercy and 13-year-old twins Stella and Estere as a single mother.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Madonna\u2018s daughter, Mercy James, is a working girl and calls one of her mom\u2019s enemies boss.
