So, who's the real diva in Manchester now?

Madonna once again took the stage for another concert performance held in England on Dec 14. But, after getting some boos from the irate fans who waited for almost an hour, the American singer and songwriter lashed out on the Manchester Arena crowd, even calling them "diva b*tch*s."

According to a report from Manchester Evening News, the fans from the concert venue got frustrated after Madonna took the stage an hour late and showed their displeasure by booing the pop star. Apparently, the hissing from the audience did not sit well with Madonna and instead of offering her apology, she hit out at the fans through an angry rant.

The Queen of Pop justified the delay on her part explaining that her crew had to take some time fixing some technical difficulties. She also tried to come clean and said, "the video crashed. We had no video and we had to wait until we could reboot. No selfish diva b**** reason. If you diva b****es want to keep complaining about it don't come to my show."

The gates were opened as early as 6:30 p.m. and the Rebel Hearts Tour performance was scheduled to start at 9 p.m., the Independent reported. But, the sell-out crowd inside the Manchester Arena, which has a capacity of 22,000 seats, started getting fussy when no Madonna was in sight by around 10 p.m.

There had been an earlier announcement made in order to advise the fans that the show wouldn't end until 11:30 p.m., according to some fans inside the venue. The situation, according to the announcement, was "beyond the artist's control." Some reports also said that there were fans who were seen walking out of the venue out of frustration.

Meanwhile, some of the fans who attended the concert Monday night also took to twitter to express how they felt regarding the incident. Tim Morton Davies wrote on Twitter: "Over 50 mins late at Manchester Arena and no announcements. Not acceptable. People have jobs to go to @Madonna," according to the Mirror report. There was a lot of anxiety from some fans who thought they might be missing the last buses and trains from the venue.

One Simon Horton also vent out his frustration and posted, "Thousands of people waiting Manchester Arena, and still your too lazy to tell us what's going on!" while Lois Griffiths said, "What a joke @Madonna an hour late already.... My dad and his wife still waiting."
