Her highly anticipated 14-date UK leg of the tour features the Material Girl hitmaker speaking to her audience.
And during a moment with the crowd, the star recalled how shocked was at how much her accent had changed when she lived in the UK while married to Guy.
She told that she was confused as to why her accent was being mocked until she listened back to old interviews of herself.
She said: 'I didn't know what anyone was talking about until I heard old interviews of myself.

'And then I was horrified and flabbergasted. Why did you let me do that to myself?'
Pinning the blame firmly on her former husband, she quipped: 'It's all Guy Ritchie's fault. He made me to it.'
Madonna and Guy share son Rocco, 19. During their eight-year marriage they adopted David Banda, 14.
Her worlds come after the singer wore knee supports as she performed the first gig of her 14-date UK leg of her Madame X tour after cancelling Monday's show and being ordered to rest by doctors over knee and hip injuries.
Gushing social media reviews and five star write-ups from critics heralded the delayed gig, her first London date since 2015, as worth the wait.

The highest-grossing female solo touring artist took concert-goers through five acts of her classic hits and new recordings from her 2019 Madame X album - her first release after living as a recluse in Lisbon for two years, as well as eight costume changes.
The star was also joined on stage by her seven-year-old twin daughters Stella and Estere and Mercy, 14, as well as her new toyboy boyfriend - backing dancer Ahlamalik Williams, 25.
The energetic show was not hindered by the knee and hip injuries that have forced her to cancel previous dates. Last month she described being 'in tears from the pain of my injuries'. She added: 'I consider myself a warrior. I never quit, I never give in, I never give up! However, this time I have to listen to my body and accept my pain is a warning.'

Referencing her ongoing injuries, the singer shared an Instagram photo of her skull-topped cane leaning against the sears of the London Palladium after Wednesday's show.
The star wore knee supports for the comeback show, telling the audience that she was thrilled to have 'made it' on stage. She said: 'I'm happy to have made it. How could I not do a show in London.'
Despite her high-energy performance, incorporating high kicks, the splits, and yoga poses, the 'Vogue' hitmaker also admitted things were 'not good in the knee and the hips' and asked for a chair to be brought on stage at one point. She quipped: 'Normally, I kneel for about 20 minutes here. I've been told I'm very good at it.'
