Madonna, 64, dons mesh lingerie and a kinky riding crop to re-launch of her Sex book

Seven-time Grammy winner Madonna donned lingerie and a riding crop in a defiant display against her critics while celebrating her book's relaunch.

The 64-year-old wore a saucy black lace bustier beneath a matching tuxedo blazer along with fishnets and black leather pumps at the Miami Art Basel exhibition to celebrate the 30th anniversary of her Sex coffee table book.

The Like A Virgin singer wore red hair extensions in braided pigtails with trendy bleached brows and false lashes she paired with a diamond grill on her teeth.

Mum-of-six Madge, who is twice divorced, teamed up with Saint Laurent creative director Anthony Vaccarello to co-curate the exhibit.

It features large-format photographs by Steven Meisel and Fabien Baron and is a reissuing of the book which sold 1.5 million copies worldwide despite being hugely controversial at the time.

Madonna recently slammed fans for "bullying her" and showed her followers exactly what she thought of their comments about her being "embarrassing".

She captioned the snap, which appears to have been taken in her huge marble bathroom, "I like to read".

In the selection of stories, she wore a pretty blue dress as she posed on a chair with her legs spread.

The singer appears to have added a heavy facial filter to the photo which enhanced her lips, changed the shape of her nose and eyes and smoothed her skin.

In one snap taken from above, she was seen lying down on top of a foot stool, with her legs in the air.

She added a load of frog face emojis - a nod to the way her legs were bent at the knees like frog legs perhaps.

In one video the camera panned from the floor up to Madonna, who was sitting on a chair in the same outfit, with her legs crossed.

She added an audio clip of someone saying: "If God exists it's f****** me".

Madonna has been enjoying social media for years now, frequently sharing scantily clad snaps or lip syncing to viral tunes.

She recently posed topless, drank water from a dog bowl and pulled unusual faces with silver teeth caps.

But she's found herself being heavily criticised by fans for her "weird" videos.

Recently, one fan asked "what had happened to her", while another begged her to "stop posting these weird reels."

Another wrote: ''On a scale of 1–10, with 10 being #Kanye, I'm pretty sure this has gotta be like an 8.''

"You were my idol growing up. I used to love your music & creativity, please stop with these weird reels! it’s getting dark & concerning now," one worried fan wrote.

Another previously added: "I’ve been a huge fan for most of my life, so it’s really sad (and disturbing) to watch the decline of Madonna. This might be funny for a kid’s tik tok, but c’mon?!"

However the 64-year-old seemed to have had enough of the cutting comments, and has begged fans to leave her alone.

She shared a picture of herself with the text: "Stop bullying Madonna for enjoying her life" pasted over the top.
