Madonna: 'I'm not a control freak'


Madonna has insisted that she isn't a "control freak" in the studio.

The Queen of Pop, who is set to release her new studio album 'MDNA' on March 26, told Sirius Radio that she had garnered an undeserved reputation as an artist who liked to be in total control, but the truth was that she couldn't work on her own.

Madonna, who has recruited the likes of MIA, Nicki Minaj, Mika and LMFAO for 'MDNA', said: "You know, I hate to use the word 'control' so much, because people use and bandy that word about with me, when it comes to my creative life. Everyone says 'Oh you're a control freak and you like to be in control.' The thing is, everything I do, even my songwriting, I'm collaborating at all times. I value input from people, and I want it."

She went on to add: I can't work on my own. I am not Prince or like a lot of artists, who can go in and play every instrument, and record a track, and not hear from people. I need to hear what people think all the time.
