Madonna wears bullet proof vest during her trip to Rio de Janeiro

Saturday November 21,2009

MADONNA has a reputation for being a tough cookie but it seems even Her Madgesty knows her limits.

Madonna was accompanied by the state governor and a squad of bodyguards during her 40-minute visit to the Rio de Janeiro slum.
