Inside Madonna's Meeting With Israeli President

The president of Israel and a Nobel Peace Prize winner Shimon Peres was the one who got Madonna out of her hotel and into the public eye.

Madonna requested to meet with him because she "personally admires the man" she said in the printed letter sent to his office.

The president agreed but asked her to wait until sundown on Saturday, and asked for her to travel to his house in Jerusalem.

And so she did, The singer and her husband arrived at 9pm local time and spent an hour and a half together.
Madonna told Peres "I refused to leave Israel before meeting you".
They tossed together for the new year and discussed the latest peace efforts in the region, kids education and music.

"I'm planning to add the topics we talked about to my new album", said Madonna, "I still can't believe I had the honor to welcome the new year with the president of Israel, In Israel, Shimon Peres, Whom I personally admire."

Madonna told Peres it's her 2nd visit to Israel and asked to learn about the country's roots, Peres gave her a quick history lesson about the Jewish people's journey that led to the rebuilding of Israel following the Holocaust back in 1948.

Madonna thanked him for the meeting and closed by saying "it was a dream come true".

Madonna is due to leave Israel on Sunday, and may come back for Yom Kippur.
