Madonna slams reports of getting drunk on-stage

Seems Madonna has foiled the tabloid reports against her that she was intoxicated on stage during her Australian tour, accusing her critics of sexism.

Sharing one of the fans' Facebook post in defense of his idol, the 57-year-old pop-star added a caption of her own, pointing out that she was "playing a character" on stage, reports News.com.au.

"Thanks for supporting me. Too bad people don't know the art of acting and playing a character. I could never do any of my shows high or drunk. And yes underlying all of this is sexism and mysongony which proves that not only do we not get equal pay but we are still treated like heretics if we step out of line and think outside the box! Sexism is alive and kicking but I am #livingforlove," wrote Madonna.

Madonna then shared a picture of her children, Mercy and David Banda, with the caption: "This is my drug. Love and happiness!"

"Madonna is a classically trained dancer who has spent her entire life taking meticulous care of her body and health. She doesn't drink. She doesn't smoke. She doesn't use drugs. She has always been, from day one, savagely devoted to her show. She's known for it," wrote the fan in the 'Like A Prayer' crooner's defense.

This chaos came after Madonna's intimate 'Tears Of A Clown' late-night Melbourne show last week where she sipped cocktails on stage and at times appeared emotional while addressing the crowd.

During her next full-scale date on the Rebel Heart tour, the Queen of Pop sipped from a flask, and made bawdy jokes between songs, begging for somebody from the crowd to "f**k her.
