James Morrison has described Madonna as the rudest popstar he has ever met.

The singer-songwriter revealed how he was introduced to the pop icon while working on new material in Los Angeles.

He told Metro: "I'm not her biggest fan but thought I'd say hello so I went over and said, 'Hello, I'm James, nice to meet you,' and put my hand out to shake hands. She just looked at it and said, 'And what do you do?' I told her I was a singer and she just stared at me and didn't say anything.

"It was really uncomfortable. Then she just ignored me. F**k her, though, it's just a matter of common courtesy. It doesn't matter what someone does for a living. She's just rude. There's no excuse for it."

Morrison's new album For You, Truths For Me will be released on September 29. Its first single 'You Make It Real' will arrive in stores the week before.
