While Madonna is off flashing her lady parts to every corner of the globe, you better believe she's doing it under the most luxurious and accommodating circumstances imaginable. In Touch has reportedly gotten their hand on the pop icon's MDNA tour rider, and, of course, have spilled the details on all of the diva's juicy demands!

Madge didn't just bring daughter Lourdes and son Rocco along for the tour trek; her entourage is actually a staggering 200-members deep! The mob of travel companions include 30 bodyguards, an acupuncturist, several personal chefs and a yoga instructor.

The 53-year-old requires she be fed from a strictly vegan menu and that she have an on-site dry cleaner at every concert venue. The worldly entertainer also demands there be no less than 20 different international phone lines in her dressing room, that the backstage furniture be draped in a special fabric and the dressing room decorated with lilies and white and pink roses with their stems cut to exactly six inches!

As for her hotel rooms, Madge's crew -- and hotel staff across the globe -- goes to great lengths to ensure she never gets homesick. All existing furniture must be "removed from the rooms and replaced with her own pieces that she has shipped in." Wow!

madonna also pays her people WELL. these requests seem unreasonable to us,but, go on a world tour then you will see.
it must be strange seeing 200-500 people every day who depend on you to get paid. night after night of the same show-it grueling.
she making the money let her spend how she wants.
im thinking to 20 lines are to ensure no one listening or recording what is being said on those lines and im sure those 20 lines and personal cells are all being used during show

madonnas tour just grossed 300 million-more than springsteen,bieber and dylan combined. im sure any venue would do that and more to be part of madonnas money machine.
concerning the riders alot of the requests are ,in the end, paid by her.
madonna besides being a very hard working performer is a really smart businesswoman. she charged 160-people talked,but she knew, people would pay.

Some of this rider is false so I imagine a good portion of it is incorrect. First off, Madonna is not vegan. And you people crack me up, she doesn't need 30 bodyguards at a time, BUT she has children that need them and they have to all work in shifts. (hello?!?) It would cruel of her to not give time off to her staff to do things like sleep or take a break. And I hate to tell you this, but when I go places, I bring as much of my stuff as I can to ensure my comfort. She is on tour for more than a year and she can do what she wants with her benefits--because that is what it is, benefits of the job. And as for people without jobs...a lot of people are working in the venues she is performing in, not to mention those of her entourage that work for her. Think of her as the corporation, because that is what she is. How many people do YOU employee?

Maybe the name Madonna has literally gone to her head. She is not the Madonna, never has been and never will be.She needs religion now more than ever.

Someone should send the newspaper articles to read about people starving, losing their homes, no money. Talk about greed and stupidity. She fits the bill.
