Pen has threatened to sue Madonna, 53, if the controversy queen tries to pull a similar stunt in France.

Madonna displayed Le Pen's face with a white swastika superimposed on her forehead in a montage which also featured other politicians like Sarah Palin and Chinese president Hu Jintao. She was performing on her hit number 'Nobody Knows Me' on the first night of her MDNA trek in Tel Aviv, Israel, reported Daily Mail.

"We understand how old singers who need to get people talking about them go to such extremes ... If she does that in France, we'll be waiting," Le Penn said.

"We are not a Nazi party, and object to being depicted as such... If Madonna repeats this slur in France then she will certainly be taken to court," she added.

National Front is a far-right politial party in France.
