Singer Nelly Furtado has hit out at Madonna and said she wants to grow old gracefully.


The 30-year-old star admitted that she is not planning to start adjusting her body to keep herself looking young like Vogue star Madonna, 50.


She said to German magazine Petra: "I am not ready to adjust physically, just to be marketable. My sell-by date will run out eventually.


"Unlike Madonna, I wouldn't be willing to do Pilates round the clock, just to slow down the deterioration of my body. I prefer to sit in the kitchen, drink tea and eat biscuits."

Nelly, 30, was a big fan of the Brit band, made up of members including the warring Gallagher brothers.


She said: "I was inconsolable when Oasis split up. That band meant the world to me.

Singer Nelly Furtado has revealed that she loves Spanish pop music because it is "extremely dramatic".


Furtado, 29, has recently released her fourth album, Mi Plan [My Plan] - the first album she has recorded entirely in Spanish.


She said: "What's so great about Spanish pop music is that you can be extremely dramatic - you have a lot of emotional licence.


"In English, especially as a woman, the moment you start to be angry, you get labelled bad-tempered like Alanis Morissette, or if you're too sad, you get written off as fragile and sappy.”


She added: "On the single, Manos Al Aire [Hands Up], I'm very angry in the verse and super-vulnerable in the ch .....
