Madonna treated a teenage fan to tickets to her final Rebel Heart concert after she exposed her on stage.

The singer, 57, accidentally exposed 17-year-old Josephine Georgiou’s breast during her Rebel Heart concert in Brisbane last week.

A spokesperson for Georgiou told the Daily Mail Australia that the Queen of Pop had flown Georgiou and her mother Toni to her final gig in Sydney as an apology.

"Three days after the show, Madonna flew Josephine and her mother to Sydney for the final show of her Australian tour on Sunday night,” they said.

"Madonna dedicated the last 30 minutes of her show to Josephine including singing La Vie En Rose directly to her and giving her a bouquet of flowers.”

The singer also addressed Georgiou midway through the gig to explain that she had not purposefully pulled down her top.

“Darling Josephine, you're back... so nice to see you,” she said as she chucked her a bouquet of white roses.

"Are you here with your mother? Hi mum. Look at that big tattoo on your boob. What is that tattoo? Oh wait, you're wearing that shirt she had on the other night that I pulled off? Accidentally by the way.

"See, if I pulled it on her it wouldn't have come off. You obviously were wearing your mother's shirt. It was a little bit loose on you, wasn't it? But I had to pay the price. Such a beautiful price. And such a beautiful mum and daughter."

Following the incident Georgiou said it was "no big deal" that she had her top pulled down by the singer.

Speaking to the Courier Mail she said: "Only I get to decide if I’m humiliated or not – why would people assume I am humiliated by my own breast, nipple or body?" she said.

"I didn’t realise my boob was such a big deal - it was nothing to me."
