FIFA Execs ‘Underestimated’ How ‘Intense’ Madonna Would Be Ahead of World Cup Halftime Performance
Madonna‘s escalating demands for her upcoming World Cup halftime performance have FIFA executives pulling out their hair, sources spill to Straight Shuter.
According to insiders, the perfectionist Queen of Pop is pushing for full creative control of her set and asking for elaborate custom staging, nonstop rehearsals, top-level security and a production budget described as “astronomical.”
An insider says, “Madonna’s treating it like the centerpiece of a global comeback.” Another source adds, “FIFA underestimated how intense she is.”
Still, an insider confides the soccer organization’s officials are willing to endure the headaches because “no artist alive turns a performance into a global media event faster than Madonna.”
