Madonna reportedly laughed “hysterically” after being told her pop rival Mariah Carey had to cancel several tour dates due to poor ticket sales.

The ‘Hung Up’ singer is said to have gleefully welcomed the news that Mariah had to shelve a host of US shows because of a lack of interest.

A source told America’s New York Daily News newspaper: “Madonna laughed hysterically. She has been asking her tour promoters to email her Mariah’s sales.”

It is believed Madonna still holds a grudge against the ‘Butterfly’ singer because of something she said in an interview years ago.

The 47-year-old star is believed to be irked that Mariah, 36, once said she “grew up” listening to her music.

However, Madonna’s representative has denied that the two stars are feuding, saying: “She has no negative feelings toward Mariah.”

Mariah’s spokesperson has refuted reports the singer has cancelled her shows because of a lack of sales.

The representative said: “Her tour is selling well. She’s cancelled a few dates so she can add shows in larger cities.”

Producer, LEE DANIELS, who made MONSTER’S BALL, hand then turned to Carey after seeing her in a small movie role. Carey explains, “It was really great because I did this little independent film with MIRA SORVINO called WISE GIRLS. “He happened to see it and hadn’t seen “the other one” (her film flop GLITTER), so it was really cool because doing that enabled more doors to open for me. “I haven’t begun shooting yet. I’m very excited about it!”
