Madonna is said to be furious after it was revealed her forthcoming album has been leaked on the net.

Promotional copies of ‘Confessions On A Dancefloor’ – released on November 14 – were even held back to stop it appearing online, but these precautions were to no avail.

The Sun claims that they were contacted by Madge fans who had downloaded the alum off the internet.

This has apparently left Madonna fuming, who is staunch opponent of illegal file sharing.

A source told the paper: “She worked really hard on this album and believes it’s wrong that fans can just download it for free.”

Madonna’s new Dannii Minogue-esque single ‘Hung Up’ is released today (November 7).
