Fans snub 'greedy' Madonna

Pop legend Madonna will be forced to perform to hundreds of empty seats when she tours Britain - because fans are refusing to pay extortionate prices to see her live.

The Material Girl star is charging a staggering £160 (€239.80) for tickets to her Re-invention Tour in London and Manchester.

But frugal fans have snubbed the gigs rather than pay up, and now the singer is left with hundreds of un-sold tickets.

A source tells Britain's Daily Star newspaper: "The high price has put off a lot of her casual fans.

"The average concert ticket costs around £20 (€30) to £30 (€45) but the cheapest Madonna tickets are £75 (€112.40)."
