'I'm not part of the Illuminati, but I know who they are'

The singer has recorded new track 'Illuminati' for her upcoming 13th studio album Rebel Heart, which is out on March 9.

'People often accuse me of being a member of the Illuminati, but the thing is, I know who the real Illuminati are and I know where that word comes from,' Madonna told Rolling Stone.

The iconic star worked with Kanye West on the track, who headed up production duties and got very excited about the song.

'We were worried he was going to hit his head on the ceiling,' Madonna added.

The singer also spoke about the meaning behind her new single 'Living For Love', which will precede the release of Rebel Heart.

'Lots of people sing about being in love and being happy, or they write about having a broken heart and being inconsolable,' Madonna explained.

'But nobody writes about having a broken heart and being hopeful and triumphant afterward. That was my challenge. I didn't want to be a victim.'
