Madonna rocks edgy

Madonna put on an edgy display in a new Instagram video in which she wore a shirt referencing a 'boyfriend' while horseback riding with her children in Kenya.

The 64-year-old pop icon, who only just got back in the saddle again after nearly a 15-year absence following a nasty fall resulting in several broken bones, showcased a blue-and-white striped shirt reading 'My boyfriend is out of town' over the chest.

The sold-out Wahine shirt, which normal runs for $125 from the brand, features a phrase that is widely printed on joke shirts.  

The playful display comes months after the Material Girl was seen kissing and cuddling up with the male model Andrew Darnell.
