Madonna is addicted to collecting drugs.

The sexy singer claims she is obsessed with mood-altering pills and has hundreds of different varieties, including strong painkillers Vicodin, Valium and Demerol, at her home.

She said: "I like the idea of pills. I like to collect them but not actually take them.

"When I fell off my horse, I got tons of stuff: Demerol, Vicodin, Xanax, Valium and OxyContin - which is supposed to be like heroin. But I'm quite scared to take them. I'm a control freak."

Madonna also admitted drugs have a bad effect on her and never do what they are supposed to.

She added to America's Rolling Stone magazine: "Drugs have a weird effect on me. They do the opposite of what they're supposed to do with me. I'm happy to say that none of my pharmaceuticals - and I had a plethora of them given to me - influenced me."
