The revelations came in an almost hour-long discussion about her forthcoming album, Confessions II, which finds the pop star in her natural habitat of the dancefloor. "That's how I started," she told Norton. "I was a dancer. Dancing is in my DNA. It just creates community - and sometimes relationships." The record reflects on her origins in 1980s New York, but also features a duet with her daughter, Lola, addressing strains in their relationship. Another track, Fragile, mourns her brother, Christopher, who died of cancer in 2024 . Madonna said she was excited for fans to hear the record, "because it's a whole story... I can't just make dance music about nothing. However, she admitted that "nobody ever wants to dance with me" because she tends to get carried away by the music. "I just go crazy. I think I irritate a lot of people." Here are seven highlights from the interview, which was broadcast on BBC One, and is available to re-watch on the BBC iPlayer. 1.

They shared a long, knowing look, before Norton sought confirmation. "Is it in this country?" Madonna gave a sly grin. "It could be. Why do I have to tell you everything?" 2.

It came 26 years after Madonna wore a bedazzled "Kylie Minogue" tank top at the MTV Europe Music Awards in Sweden: A gesture of solidarity that took the Aussie pop star by surprise. "There was no warning," Kylie recalled, saying she "probably stopped shy of fainting" when she saw Madonna's outfit. Then Madonna had a little revelation. "I was actually a little bit jealous of you," she told Kylie. "Why?" asked Norton. "Because she was so cute. "I think my ex-husband at the time [Guy Ritchie] had a crush on her, and I was like, 'I'll never be as beautiful as Kylie'. 3. Madon
