Madonna has been having a tough couple of months. 

Not only is she currently on the road for her Rebel Heart tour but she is also embroiled in a custody battle with her ex-husband over her 15-year-old son Rocco. 

Rocco left the States to live with Guy and his family in December of last year and has not seen his popstar mother since. 

Guy and Rocco both appeared at a hearing in London this week over the dispute with Madonna's rep apologising for her absence. 

The 57-year-old star was actually in Australia performing to a Melbourne crowd but reports suggested that the show started hours late. 

Fans worried for the star as she took the stage in a clown costume and spoke openly about her family issues to the audience. 

"Oh there's no end to the mistakes I've made," said the singer onstage according to the Sun. 

"Anyway everybody knows the saga of me and my son Rocco. It's not a fun story to tell or think about.

"I probably could have enjoyed myself a little bit more on this tour if he hadn't disappeared so suddenly and also if I knew when I would see him again."

The star then sang a song dedicated to her son with his image displayed on a large screen behind her. 

She also admitted to having a few drinks that evening with audience members taking to Twitter to speculate that the singer was drunk. 

"One thing I’m going to do here tonight that I’ve never done before when singing is drink.

"I’m not supposed to be asking for alcohol right now but, Jesus Christ, get me some drink."

We can't imagine any of this will bode well for her case which she is currently trying to have heard solely in the States rather than in London.

It seems that Madonna's wardrobe malfunctions are NOT a thing of the past.

Nearly a year after her BRIT mishap, where she fell over because her cape was too long, the singer had more bad look… with another rather large garment.

While she was on stage in Thailand, the star took to the stage to sing her hit Material Girl.

While she was doing so, she got very tangled in a veil that she draped over herself.

It all seemed to be going to plan until the very end when the veil started to draw her head back.

But, she obviously learned from her past mistakes and turned around to hop out from underneath.

We just think she should steer clear from capes, veils… and maybe just large, draping material in general.

Madonna has hit back at accusations that she was drunk during a live performance as part of her Rebel Heart tour last week. 

The star appeared to slur her words on stage as she chatted to the crowd as seen in a fan video made during the show in Kentucky. 

"I'm messing everything up," she says to her fans in the eight minute video. 

"My choreography, my words… Maybe someone slipped some bourbon into my throat coat tea." 

Madonna took to her Instagram account to blast the accusations and claimed she was falling victim to sexism in the media. 

"For those people who like to believe all they read i never drink and perform!!!" read the captioned image of herself lying down on stage. 

"It's so very interesting how society continues to not only treat me in a totally sexist way (if I were a man no one would have said a thing) and also continue to take everything I say literally! 

"That's what happens when people don't read book and get all information from TMZ."

This is not the first time the Rebel Heart tour has faced criticism by fans and in the press, as some audiences have been kept waiting over two and a half hour for the iconic star to take to the stage. 

The controversy comes amidst Madonna's bitter custody battle with ex-husband Guy Ritchie over their 15-year-old son, Rocco. 

According to inside sources, Rocco had become frustrated with his home life and left the US during his mother's Rebel Heart tour just before the Christmas holidays. 

An attorney for Guy Ritchie released a statement claiming that: "[Rocco] has expressed very clearly that he does not want to return to New York."

Guy has reportedly hired lawyers as he prepares to battle the iconic pop star for Rocco's custody, revealing that he believes that the teenager would have a healthier lifestyle in London with him, his wife and three children.

Madonna is reportedly very worried about her son Rocco missing school as the teen has yet to return to the States after taking a trip to visit his father, Guy Ritchie, in London in December. 

According to inside sources, Rocco had become frustrated with his home life and left the US during his mother's Rebel Heart tour just before the Christmas holidays. 

Since then, the former couple has engaged in a bitter custody battle over the 15-year-old. 

An attorney for Guy Ritchie released a statement claiming that: "[Rocco] has expressed very clearly that he does not want to return to New York."

However, a Supreme Court Judge in New York ruled earlier this week that Rocco is to return to the city to be with his Mother. 

And according to People magazine, Madonna is now extremely worried as her son has not returned to attend school. 

"He should have been home already," a source close to the family revealed.

'"Madonna is a devoted mother, and a big priority is her children's education."

Guy has reportedly hired lawyers as he prepares to battle the iconic popstar for Rocco's custody, revealing that he believes that the teenager would have a healthier lifestyle in London with him, his wife and three children.

Madonna has shared a cute selfie of herself and her son, Rocco, describing him as the 'sunshine of her life' as she battles it out for custody of the 15-year-old with her ex husband 

Reports circulated last week that Madonna was forced to take proceedings to court when Rocco refused to return home from a stint in London with his father, Guy Ritchie. 

The 57-year-old shared the pic on Christmas Day on her Instagram account with the caption: "Merry Xmas to the sunshine of my life. OXOOXOXO."

We reckon Rocco must be feeling a tad guilty. 

Reports circulated earlier this week that Rocco is currently residing in London and is refusing to return to his Mother in New York. 

An attorney for Guy Ritchie reportedly released a statement saying: "[Rocco] has expressed very clearly that he does not want to return to New York."

However, a Supreme Court Judge in New York ruled earlier this week that Rocco is to return to the city to be with his Mother. 

But it still seems that the pair spent Christmas apart. 

But not to be excluded, the pop star also posted pictures of her other three children, Lourdes, Mercy and David.

Madonna was in no mood to be messed with at her recent gig.

The singer was in Manchester on Monday night and when she hit the stage the crowd started to boo and shout insults at her for being 50 minutes late. 

But, Madge wasn't having ANY of it and had a very fierce reply to her audience.

"I don't like to be late, by the way, and all you b*tches who keep complaining about it can shut the f**k up.

"I'm not back there eating chocolates and filing my nails and getting my extensions done. The [background] video crashed. We had no video.

"We had to wait until we could reboot it… No selfish diva b*tch reason. If you diva b*tches want to keep complaining about it, don't come to my show."

Well, she certainly slapped them with the truth.

Everyone who's anyone seems to know that the ultimate red carpet accessory is a decent set of pearly whites.

Yup, unless you're in possession of a ridiculously smile, your career can really – or so says Hollywood, anyway.

And it is quite amazing how a new set of chompers can totally transform a person's face. Even established names – Tom Cruise, we're looking at you – have opted for major dental work (in his case, back in 2002) to alter a less-than megawatt bite. 

Join us while we drool and contemplate getting the braces back on with the most impressive of celebrity teeth transformations.

 

1) Miley Cyrus

You can’t make lewd gestures with your tongue if you ain’t got the perfect set of teeth.

 

2) Tom Cruise 

Mmm, a buck tooth. What every girl dreams of from a Hollywood heart throb.

 

3) Niall Horan 

A case of right place, right time brought Niall into 1D, and thousands bought him that smile.

 

4) Gwen Stefani 

Gwen is fashion royalty, her braces were arguably not.

 

5) Zac Efron 

We can’t even #toocute

 

6) Cher Lloyd 

Questionable brows distracted from Cher’s perfectly acceptable teeth when she first appeared on X Factor, but this whole transformation is pretty impressive #thepowerofmoney

 

7) Cheyl Fernandez-Versini 

Cheryl was always beautiful, but those pearly whites took her dimpled smile to a new level.

 

8) Victoria Beckham

Posh is human perfection, good teeth or bad. We all know that. 

 

9) Tulisa 

Got teeth done, got voted FHM’s sexiest woman. Go figure.

 

10) Mathew Lewis 

This overall transformation from Neville Longbottom to absolute ride is pretty astonishing but those teeth sure do help. Yum!

As we all know, nail trends come and go; in summer and spring pastel nails are always the way to go, and in autumn and winter it's back to our usual dark hues. 

But there's one colour that has been missing for a while now. Madonna wore the shade in her Take A Bow video and Uma Thurman totally rocked the polish in Pulp Fiction.

Sarah Michelle Gellar even gave the polish a shout-out in the first ever episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Yep, Vamp (the shade that even boasts its own Wikipedia page), is back on the market. Chanel has rolled out a holiday beauty collection to celebrate the shade's 20th anniversary and finally, it's available to buy again. 

Chanel Vamp Attitude is the limited collection that would make any '90s girl's dream come true.

The collection comes complete with Vamp-inspired eye-shadow palettes, lipsticks, glosses, polishes and of course, the beloved Vamp itself.

With many designers taking part in Madonna's Rebel Heart tour, it was hard to call who would design the most show-stopping outfit. 

The likes of Alexander Wang, Prada, Gucci, Miu Miu and Swarovski are all collaborating with Madonna on her tour. 

We were very excited to hear that Moschino's lead designer Jeremy Scott is collaborating with the 57-year-old songstress because we all know how wild his outfits can be!

But when Gucci unveiled sketches of the popstar's wardrobe, we knew the stakes are high as these outfits are going to be incredibly hard to beat. 

Full of exoctic gypsy-inspired looks – Gucci mixed ruffles with multi-coloured trimmings and embroideries, silk flowers and jacquard lace.

How dreamy!  Here is your first look at the two unveiled sketches:

Ever since Drake was pictured cheering on tennis pro Serena Williams at Wimbledon back in July, rumours have been swirling that the pair are an in fact an item. And if this latest update is anything to go by, they most definitely are.

The lovebirds were spotted "making out" at trendy Cincinnati eatery Sotto last night, much to the surprise of their fellow diners. Drake and Serena had a private room at the back of the restaurant and couldn't keep their hands off each other, according to onlookers.

Photos published by TMZ showed the rumoured couple sitting across from one another, before Serena moved to Drake's side of the table and sat on his lap.

The couple have long been thought of as more than just friends – in fact, back in 2011 they were spotted kissing at the Wimbledon clubhouse following Serena's victory over Victoria Azarenka in the tournament's quarter finals. Four years on, Drake attended several of Serena's Wimbledon matches, hanging out with her sister Venus courtside plus John Legend and wife Chrissy Teigen.

He even took to Instagram to congratulate Serena publicly following her Women's Singles' 2015 win, her fourth major title in a row this season.

 

Showtime Champ. A big plate for all that food you ate at Wimbledon!

A photo posted by champagnepapi (@champagnepapi) on

"Showtime Champ. A big plate for all that food you ate at Wimbledon!" he wrote, posting a picture of the tennis star holding her trophy.

Drake was previously linked to Puerto Rican model and Instagram sensation Bernice Burgos, with the pair pictured looking VERY cosy on vacation in Australia together back in March. Plus, who can forget his shudder-inducing on stage smooch with Madonna just a few months ago?

We sure hope Serena is a better kisser…
