Madonna The Model

Superstar Madonna has reportedly been approached to model Swedish fashion firm H+M's autumn 2006 collection.

Swedish newspaper Expressen claims the Material Girl - currently touring the US as part of her Confessions world tour - is in talks with the clothes giant to star in print and in-store ads later this year.

The paper writes: "She's a superstar, a style icon - and controversial. Now Madonna could be H+M's next clothing model."

H+M spokeswoman Kristina Stenvinkel refused to confirm or deny the reports, saying, "Our policy is to never comment on such reports."

Last year, H+M hit the headlines when they dropped Kate Moss from their autumn 2005 campaign, following her alleged cocaine scandal.
