Madonna has made an awkward gaffe by photoshopping her face over Lady Gaga's to create a picture of herself with her own daughter.

Lady Gaga and Madonna are known to have had a number of high profile feuds, including when Madonna said Gaga's copying of her was "reductive".

Now Madonna has posted on Instagram a photo featuring heself standing with 19-year-old daughter Lourdes Leon."DoubleTrouble. Coming at you 2016," she posted.

However many followers were quick to point out that Modonna's face had actually been photoshopped over the face of Gaga.

Earlier this week, Madonna's son, Rocco Ritchie, deleted his Instagram account after blocking his superstar mother from accessing his page amid reports of a bitter custody battle between the singer and Guy Ritchie.

Rocco, who had 138,000 followers, is currently living with his father, Ritchie, in London, according to RadarOnline.
