Gwendoline Christie Was Madonna’s Unapologetic Bitch In Sydney

Game of Thrones star Gwendoline Christie was Madonna’s ‘Unapologetic Bitch’ in Sydney on Saturday night.

Madonna is ending her ‘Rebel Heart’ tour this weekend in Sydney with the two shows on Saturday and Sunday being filmed for DVD.

With the DVD in mind, Madonna used the regular ‘Unapologetic Bitch’ segment of the show to put the star on her DVD. UK born Christie plays Brienne of Tarth on ‘Game of Thrones’ and was also in ‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens’ as Captain Phasma.

Madonna also used the stage to slap down some of the ridiculous press she has been getting in Australia. “I don’t even drink. But because I’ve been accused of being an alcoholic so many times I’m going to start drinking. So fuck you,” she said about the Australian media. “You’re not going to shut my shit down. You’re just jealous because I’m not an alcoholic.”

She also addressed the breakdown stories spewing over world media this week. “I don’t want to be accused of having a meltdown,” she said. “God forbid a mother should miss her son.

“I’m glad you all have a sense of humour, because if I didn’t have one I couldn’t survive,” she added.

Madonna was on stage at 10pm on Saturday night. For the record, most major shows in Sydney and Melbourne generally start between 9pm and 9:30pm so once again “the late Madonna” stories have been exaggerated.
