Madonna has received criticism from anti-drugs campaigners over her new album's title.
The singer has confirmed that her 12th studio LP will be called MDNA, which is an abbreviation of her name.
However, an anti-drugs group has now slammed the star for using the title, saying it is too similar to the class A drug MDMA.
Lucy Dawe from Cannabis Skunk Sense told The Sun that Madonna has made "an ill-advised decision" regarding the album name.
The tabloid also reports that Madonna revealed the release date for MDNA as March 12 during her interview on The Graham Norton Show, but this has yet to be confirmed.
The star has announced that she plans to embark on a new world tour later this year to support the release of her new music.
