Madonna has reportedly outraged Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie by criticising their charity work.
The couple - who are currently in India filming 'A Mighty Heart' - have allegedly been left "shocked" after Madonna blasted their involvement in the building of an Indian orphanage.
A source told Britain's Star magazine: "Angelina is shocked. Madonna's remarks just sound nasty. Angelina thinks the worst part of it all is that Madonna could have used the opportunity to say something that could actually be of benefit to someone."
As well as reportedly criticising Brad and Angelina's work with orphanages, Madonna - who has sparked controversy after adopting a Malawian baby called David - also seemed to trivialise Angelina's role as a UN Goodwill Ambassador.
The 48-year-old pop superstar said: "I'm not interested in going in there like an idiot and going, 'OK, I'm going to build ten orphanages and I'll see you guys later'. I could've joined the UN and become an ambassador, visited various countries and just showed up and smiled and looked concerned. But that's not getting to the root of the problem. And neither is building orphan care centres."
But she didn't build orphan care centres and is not a UN ambassador. For every 10 people talking about doing development assistance work it is impressive to see one person actually doing something about it. So whether it's Angelina and Brad or Belinda Stronach I wish there was more of their doing and less of Madonna's whining.
