Madonna has revealed that her current busy schedule is keeping her mind off her divorce.

The popstar legally split from Guy Ritchie at a short hearing in London on Friday, a month after the couple announced their separation.

She said she is grateful that her 'Sticky & Sweet' tour has given her the chance to forget about the breakdown of her marriage.

"I'm sad about my personal life, but I feel very blessed and very lucky that I have the opportunity to do what I do in my professional life. It would be horrible if I was just thinking about getting a divorce and had nothing to do," she told The AP.

Madonna is currently performing in the US on the final leg of the tour.
