Madonna reportedly demanded that reporters backstage at Live Earth actually look her in the eye when they talk to her and not avert their gaze the entire time they conducted interviews.
Mirror UK reported that the Material Mama shocked concert organizers by insisting that reporters couldn’t look down to check notes and that all questions for her Madgesty had to be memorized.
“We thought her people were joking,” said one Mirror source. Oh no they weren’t: “She did not want to do any interviews, which I told the Live Earth folks from the start,” said a rep for Madge. Journos also couldn’t ask about Guy Ritchie, little David, or Kabbalah.
