Is she in London?’. Sometimes I cycle past it and think, ‘I wonder if she’s in there now?’. But rest assured, I’m not her friend, so don’t be too jealous.”Back in 2015, Graham was a surprise guest when Madonna brought her Rebel Heart tour to London’s O2 Arena.Madonna’s Confessions II will be released on Friday 3 July.The release was preceded by album cuts I Feel So Free and Love Sensation, as well as lead single Bring Your Love, featuring fellow chart-topper Sabrina Carpenter.Earlier this week, she also unveiled a new short film to promote the album, featuring a host of impressive celebrity cameos.READ MORE:Our Guide To Every Celebrity Cameo Featured In Madonna's Confessions II Short FilmMadonna Wows Fans With Epic Surprise Show In New York's Times SquareMadonna Steals The Show On This Year's Met Gala Red Carpet With Dramatic Look
