Piers claimed Madonna hasn't been good since the 80s and her behaviour - particularly during lockdown - is "pathetic".

The presenter said: "When she did Holiday, she was the best popstar in the world. No question.

"Now it’s just pathetic watching Madonna now. Pathetic. Everybody finds her pathetic and now we’re having a biopic."

Co-host Susanna Reid asked what his problem with her was, other than her "getting older".

Piers continued: "She’s 62 now going on 20. The act doesn’t work. It’s embarrassing.

"She doesn’t know how to age gracefully. She’s trying to act the age of her boyfriends. I think the latest one’s about - what is he, 18? They’re always older than her kids, I know that."

The singer is currently in a relationship with 27-year-old dancer Ahlamalik Williams.

Madonna went public with her boyfriend late last year, before going on a over the New Year.

It was announced earlier today that Madonna will direct her own biopic from Universal Pictures and will co-write it with Academy Award winner Diablo Cody.

Madonna said the film will focus on her music.

She said in a statement: "I want to convey the incredible journey that life has taken me on as an artist, a musician, a dancer - a human being, trying to make her way in this world.

"The focus of this film will always be music. Music has kept me going and art has kept me alive.
