According to reports, she also requests 20 international phone lines backstage and insists on only vegan snacks.

Madonna is particular about the look of her dressing room, which must be draped in a particular fabric and filled with white and pale pink roses and lillies, with the stems on each flower trimmed to exactly six inches.

After her shows, the singer likes her hotel rooms to be a home-away-from home and has her own furniture shipped into the suites.

A source told InTouch Weekly magazine: "Madonna requires all furniture be removed from the rooms and replaced with her own pieces that she has shipped in."

Madonna also has five clones of herself and a body double for her 15-year-old dancer daughter Lourdes following advice from her father Carlos Leon.

A source said recently: "Carlos suggested hiring a Lourdes lookalike to take the pressure off the teenager."
