Madonna's tour crew threaten to quit

Madonna's tour crew are reportedly threatening to walk out of her Stick & Sweet tour, feeling treated as second-class citizens over flights and hotels.

Madonna's 250-strong tour crew are reportedly on the verge of walking off her 'Stick & Sweet' tour because they feel they are being treated like "second class citizens'. The row was sparked after they were all packed onto an EasyJet flight to Nice in order get to the second night of the tour and then discovered that they would be staying in a £50 a night hotel. Meanwhile, Madonna and her family travelled by private jet and stayed in the luxury Chateau Saint Jeannet castle at a cost of £11,000.

A source told The Mirror: "Everyone is absolutely furious with her and some of them want to walk out of the tour. They feel they are being treated like second-class citizens, despite all their hard work over the last few months. Trouble has been brewing for a few months in the Madonna camp, especially since all the claims that her marriage was in crisis. Now to make matters worse, they are being forced to stay in horrible places and fly on cheap low-cost flights, while she has the lap of luxury".
