'I'll come if YOU promise to wear fishnets': Madonna kicks off a week's visit on Ellen with a sexy video challenge for her host
If Ellen DeGeneres thought she was going to get a week's worth of Madonna for nothing, she was wrong.
The 'one and only' Madonna sent the amiable talk show host a video message ahead of her first day on The Ellen DeGeneres Show that ended with a very risque challenge.
Speaking with a pointedly direct stare and commanding deep voice, Madonna told Ellen: 'I'll come, I'll sing you some songs if YOU promise to wear fishnets. Deal? Deal.'

Risque request: Madonna sent Ellen DeGeneres a video message with a risque challenge to wear fishnets on Monday ahead of her week-long visit to her show
Ellen - who tends to wear trousers, blazers and trainers while grilling her guests - just happened to have a pair of the femininely frilly tights nearby.
With a gleam in her eye, Ellen rose to the challenge, sort of.
A teaser began with Ellen excitedly telling her audience about what was in store: 'Madonna's going to be here all week long and she sent this message to kick it off. Here she is...'
Rising to the challenge: The amiable talk show host complied - sort of - by brandishing a pair of dummy legs in fishnet stockings on Monday's segment of Ellen
What an introduction: Ellen boasted to her viewers that 'Madonna's going to be here all week long and she sent this message to kick it off'
Serenade: Madonna began by singing a few lyrics from her song Living For Love, 'First you love me and I let you in, made me feel like I was born again...'
Madonna started by singing off a few lines from her song Living For Love from her album Rebel Heart, 'First you love me and I let you in, made me feel like I was born again.'
Assuming the demeanor of the superstar that she is, Madonna continued by saying, 'Hey, Ellen, I can't wait to see you tomorrow and spend the week with you. We are long lost cousins right? I'll come, I'll sing you some songs if YOU promise to wear fishnets. Deal? Deal.'
Madonna then cinched the message with a conspiratorial wink and thumbs up, and afterwards Ellen mimicked her friend by winking and giving the thumbs up salute.
What's she after: The 56-year-old singer told her friend, 'Hey, Ellen, I can't wait to see you tomorrow and spend the week with you. We are long lost cousins right?'
She means business: Madonna leveled one of her direct stares and commanded, 'I'll come, I'll sing you some songs if YOU promise to wear fishnets. Deal? Deal'
Get the picture: The Express Yourself songstress concluded by giving Ellen a conspiratorial wink
Wink, wink: Ellen complied to Madonna's unusual request to wear the sexy feminine stockings in her own way
'Threatening! I'm scared,' Ellen confided to her audience. 'Alright, Madonna, you asked for it. I am wearing fishnets.'
Ellen then removed a blanket to reveal her 'legs' dressed in sexy fishnet stockings - that were really props that she could bend backwards and forwards.
The very 'limber' comedienne then proceeded to twist and dangle her fishnet-clad 'legs' in all sorts of contortions.
Can you do this: The comedienne showed that's she's limber as well as funny as she attempted to wrap her dummy legs around her head
Not her usual outfit: Ellen is more comfortable wearing trousers, blazers and trainers while sitting pretty on her hit daytime talk show
The show also released another teaser that features Ellen introducing the megastar in her own blunt way, 'The one and only Madonna,' before flashing a forthcoming scenes of Madonna dancing and performing with her troupe.
'Hi, Madonna,' Ellen is seen telling the Like A Virgin singer in their comfy seating arrangement. 'Hi, Ellen,' replies the larger-than-life pop star.
Madonna is seen wearing a cage-like, cut-out bustier over white collared blouse, along with elegant black gloves and an elaborate updo hairstyle.
Hilarious: The talk show host was seen getting chatty with the mega-star in this teaser and it went like this: 'Hi, Madonna'...'Hi, Ellen'
Ellen is then seen joining Madonna in a dance while wearing the same type of outfit, and smiling all the way.
The announcer excitedly promises, 'Next Ellen, we've got news for you. Madonna is on Ellen every day for the rest of the week kicking off with an exclusive performance.'
Stars from One Big Happy - which Ellen is producing - also makes an appearance including Elisha Cuthbert, Nick Zano and Kelly Brook.
Week's worth of Madonna: The singer is set to dance, talk and entertain on the Ellen show every day this week starting Tuesday
