Madonna says she was a "Japanese warrioress" in a previous life. In what appeared to be a thinly-veiled warning to estranged husband Guy Ritchie, the singer revealed her fighting spirit on a Japanese TV show.

She said: "I must have been Japanese in a previous life. I'm pretty sure I was a warrioress. I can't explain it, I just know. I'm good at fighting - fighting with a big sword."

Since film director Guy and Madonna, 50, announced they were splitting after nearly eight years of marriage last month, their divorce battle has become increasingly acrimonious.

The most hotly contested issue between the couple is custody of the three children they raise - Lourdes 12, Rocco, eight and David Banda, three.

Rocco and David were reunited with their father on Monday after spending the weeks following the split with their mother on her "Sticky and Sweet" world tour in the U.S.

Guy, 40, was spotted leaving his pub in London, The Punchbowl, in the early hours of Wednesday morning, after celebrating with friends.

Earlier this week, Madonna's brother Christopher Ciccone revealed Madonna was planning to compete with Guy by launching a career as a film director.

He said: "Apparently she wants to be directing and that's what she'll be doing. Two directors in the family is never going to work."
