Madonna thanks Will.i.am, her dancers and her kids in Billboard speech

Madonna was the recipient of the "Top Touring Artist" award during Sunday night's Billboard Awards and the singer's eccentric speech almost overshadowed the fact that Justin Bieber got booed on stage earlier in the night.

Wearing a fur jacket, Kanye West-style sunglasses and black stockings, the queen of pop took the stage, asked Will.i.am -- who presented her with the award -- to hold the prize for her and began delivering her "brief" speech.

During her speech, the "Give Me All Your Luvin'" singer thanked everyone from Will.i.am to her dancers, who she claimed where "the best dancers," her management and her kids. The singer closed her discourse with a sweet remark about her fans.

"Last but not least I'd like to thank my fans," said Madonna. "All of you because, without you I wouldn't have a show to do. And a show girl needs her fans."
