MADONNA HAS HER NEEDS
Thank God Madonna's spirtuality has led her to reject materialism - you know, like she was telling us the other day - and adopt a simpler life. Why, for example, her list of backstage demands for playing GAY would make Ghandi look demanding:
-REPAINT the dressing room and lay a soft carpet.
-ORDER a huge supply of English breakfast tea, fresh lemons and flowers to make her room smell nice.
-REQUEST silence while she got ready for the sell-out show.
-INSIST six minders accompanied her at all times.
Madonna was at it again on Friday - requesting she was served tea all day before her appearance at the Children In Need extravaganza.
She also flipped when the drink was served in a cup - when she'd asked for a MUG.
Well, of course, she wouldn't want to be caught drinking from a cup - people might think she was hoity-toity.

Does anyone really think those are outrageous demands? If you've ever been backstage in that hideous venue, you'd know that with a lick of paint, things to mask the smell and something - anything - to cover the grimy floor, they got off quite quite lightly.
Breakfast tea and lemons are all very shocking, but as rock star riders go, it's hardly akin to having several litters of labrador puppies bussed in for her enjoyment.
The insistence of having a mug rather than a cup is somewhat key, though, isn't it?
And surely the whole point of playing a small, tatty-but-fabulous place like GAY is that it's small, tatty and fabulous? Demanding a company hovering around break-even put down new carpet is pretty hefty, especially for someone who, let's not forget, was lecturing us all last month on how people today are too demanding...
