Don't mess with her! Madonna blasts 'enslaver' during Steve McQueen's 12 Years A Slave premiere after being criticised for texting



She's a force to be reckoned with.



Breaking classic moviegoer etiquette, Madonna relentlessly sent text messages during the premiere screening of 12 Years A Slave in New York City on Tuesday.

But her actions didn't go unnoticed, causing a scorching fan to blatantly call her out, in which the 55-year-old pop icon responded: 'It's for business... enslaver!'

She doesn't like to be told what to do... Madonna called a moviegoer an 'enslaver' after being slammed for texting during the premiere of 12 Years A Slave in New York City on Tuesday

New York Post's Page Six first reported about the incident at Lincoln Center's Walter Reade theatre, calling the superstar - who was unidentified at the time - 'a mysterious blonde in black lace gloves who wouldn't stop texting on her Blackberry throughout the first half of the movie.'



After becoming agitated with the disturbance, a female filmgoer eventually 'tapped her on the shoulder and told her to put her phone away.'



It was then that Madonna quipped back with her inappropriate 'enslaver' response.

Ironic: The pop star had posed with the film's director Steve McQueen and was 'visibly moved' by the drama about slavery

The historical drama - starring Brad Pitt, Chiwetel Ejiofor, and Michael Fassbender - is a fact-based film about a freed slave (Ejiofor) who is then sold back into slavery.



'Some people are shocked by this, because Madonna was visibly tearing up, everybody there thought that she was very moved by it,' another source confirmed to Us Weekly , after it was noted that the lash-out had come from Madge.



'She really wanted to say hello to Steve McQueen and congratulate him.'



The Vogue songstress was, in fact, seen with the film's director, Steve, even posing with him for a few snaps at the New York Film Festival event.



And she was pictured wearing an all-black ensemble, which included lace gloves.
