M IN AGONY - LIMPS OFF STAGE; ANKLE BANDAGED

Time might be finally catching-up with superstar performer Madonna - after she was spotted limping off stage following a concert in France.

The 50-year-old performer - who is known for her agile dance moves - had to have her ankle heavily strapped after one of her spinning routines went wrong.

The Material Mom's high energy moves seem to be taking their toll as she was seen clutching an ice-pack with her face wrought with pain.

Earlier in the evening, the crowd had watched the superstar writhing around the stage in a mini skirt, wedge heeled trainers and long socks.

The super-fit icon looked spent as she limped out of the Bercy Arena in Paris in a white dressing robe and oriental style slippers after her Sticky And Sweet concert.

The star returned to The Ritz Hotel to be with her adopted children David, 3, and Mercy, 4, and her own daughter Lourdes, 13.

It's little Mercy's first trip with her superstar mom since she was adopted from Malawi just three weeks ago.

She seems to be coping with her new jet-set lifestyle and was spotted touring the French capital with her new nanny and several bodyguards while Madonna worked.

Despite her injury, the star is expected to continue performing her sell-out tour which could gross up to $100 million worldwide by the time it ends.
