Madonna is currently still dealing with an ongoing legal battle as the case of a lawsuit filed against her back in January continues.
Concertgoers Michael Fellows and Jonathan Hadden sued the singer, 65, earlier this year for starting her concert, part of the Celebration Tour, more than two hours after the slated start time of 8:30 PM.
Per the suit, which was also filed against Barclays Center and Live Nation for the show held December 13 in NYC, the singer was accused of "false advertising, negligent misrepresentation, and unfair and deceptive trade practices."
They also allege that the late start time made it difficult for fans to "get up early to go to work" the following day. Two other suits were subsequently also filed against Madonna for the same reasons, one from an attendee of a show in Washington D.C., and another from an attendee in Los Angeles.
However, in the midst of all this, Madonna has remained silent on the matters (possibly for legal reasons), but did return to social media on Monday with a slew of new photos after latest updates.
The "Like a Virgin" hitmaker shared new snaps of herself from a photoshoot, posing in a glittering black jacket and a bustier bodysuit, then switching out the jacket for a leopard-print red feathered robe.
Her hair was styled into Marcel finger waves, she accessorized with fishnet gloves, and she sported a bold red lip with deep contours and thin eyebrows to complete her glam. "My babies got a secret …. …. x," she cryptically captioned her post.

Earlier this month, TMZ reported that Madonna had responded to the class action lawsuit by stating through her lawyers that true fans would know that her concerts often start later than advertised.

With the response, the singer's legal team made a motion to dismiss the suit. Later this month, the plaintiffs in the case then told the judge that a settlement had been reached between the parties involved.

A "False Notice of Settlement" was filed by Madonna's team, and in a hearing earlier this week, a judge sided with her legal team, agreeing that a clear settlement had not been reached and chalking it up to miscommunication.
