She is used to performing energetic dance moves on stage and is incredibly fit but it seems that skiing is something Madonna has not quite mastered.
The 54-year-old singer was seen falling over on the piste, as she spent an afternoon with her boyfriend Brahim Zaibat in Gstaad, Switzerland.
Madonna was seen lying face down on the show with her legs splayed out behind her and her skis off.
Her 25-year-old boyfriend looked on as she struggled to stay upright on the piste.
And as she lay on the cold surface Madonna's patience for the sport appeared to be running out as she seemed to have a frustrated look on her face.
Madonna attempted to keep a low profile in an all black outfit, a helmet and a balaclava that left just her mouth area on show.
The singer seemed a little shaky on her skis, despite having her boyfriend on hand to help her.
Madonna's daughter Lourdes was also out on the mountain on Friday but she cut a much more confident figure as she rode her snowboard down the slopes.
Lourdes, who turned 16 in October, showed off her skills a she breezed down the mountain.
