Madonna's 'I feel fat' confession shocks Met Gala guests

London, May 4 (ANI): Pop queen Madonna recently shocked guests at the prestigious Met Gala Benefit in New York when she confessed that she felt 'fat' in her red carpet gown.

The dress, designed by her good friend Stella McCartney, left the fashion pack all agreeing in unison that the singer looked sensational in the blue, floor-length silk gown that was adorned with stars cascading down the back, reports the Daly Mail.

But nobody could have guessed that behind her red-lipped smile, the impeccably svelte and sculpted singer was battling with a few body confidence issues.

According to celebrity website US Weekly, the singer told the assembled reporters, "I feel fat."

Famed for her vigorously disciplined macrobiotic diet and intense fitness regimes, the 52-year-old mother of four left bystanders shaking their heads in disbelief at the singer's surprise confession.

It is assumed that the star's recent change in fitness routine could be the reason for her low self-esteem. (ANI)
