Madonna has set up a ''sterilization team'' to wipe away any DNA in her dressing room after shows on her MDNA world tour.

The 53-year-old has also told organizers only her and her entourage are allowed ­backstage passes.

Concert promoter Álvaro Ramos, who is overseeing the Portuguese leg of the concert dates revealed her demands.

Speaking at a press conference, he said: ''We have to take extreme care, like I have never seen for any other artist. We cannot even look at the dressing room, after it is ready, or even open the door.

''We can only enter after her sterilization team has left the room. There will not be any of Madonna's DNA, any hair, or anything. They will clean up ­everything. In the end it is all to protect her and make her feel comfortable.

''I do understand it, but it is taken to extremes.''

Madonna's other demands in the past have included ordering a new toilet seat at every venue.

The singer will play at the Coimbra City Stadium in Portugal, where the dressing rooms will be converted by her own staff.

Álvaro added: ''Her team will build everything for her, including fake ceilings and fake walls, so they can ensure that no one has hidden a camera somewhere.''

Last night, a source close to Madonna said: ''She is a ­perfectionist, and expects the best. But then, at her age and with her status, why shouldn't she?''

    Somebody should throw a piece of gooey reality pie at her! She's an old, overweight, talentless has-been who's unappreciative of her fans as evident by her insults to a simple fan in Europe who gave her Hydrangea flowers only because they're cheap and not her favorite! Her claim to fame is being rebellious and selling s ex in her concerts and music videos NOT her talent. To this day, she still takes voice lessons but to no success, she has to depend on auto-tune because her voice is lousy!

    While I respect Madonna as an artist, I do not have any respect for her lifestyle. No offense sa mga madonna fans. But I am now speaking in general, not just in Madonna's case. Pero nakaka-turn off sa totoo lang yung mga celebrities na ang demands eh hanggang langit. Minsan imposible pa. Kung napanood ninyo yung pelikulang SIMONE, kuhang kuha ng palabas ang kalakaran sa Hollywood. Kaya naman ako, hangang hanga sa mga katulad nila Sandra Bullock. Kasi napaka-down to earth na mga artista. Isang malinis na bed sheet lang sa tinutuluyang hotel, satisfied na. Dito sa Pinas, may ganyan din! Barretto, ehem, EXCUSE ME PO!
