It was just like a prayer.

The Material Girl and boy toy Jesus toured Jewish holy sites this weekend ahead of the final performance for her "Sticky and Sweet" tour and planned to meet with Israel's top leaders.

Madonna landed in Israel with her family on Sunday for two concerts in Tel Aviv and took a break to tour Jerusalem's Old City with boyfriend Jesus Luz, 22, over the weekend, according to The Jerusalem Post.

Arriving in a black Mercedes van, the pair was escorted by a security detail into catacombs under the Wailing Wall, the paper reported.

The 51-year-old singer, a Kabbalah devotee, was expected to meet with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu today and opposition leader Tzipi Livni during her stay in the country later this week, according to The Jerusalem Post.

The singer reportedly requested to meet with Livini and Netanyahu insisted on meeting with her too, according to The Post.

Madonna, who has been to the country in the past, was expected to be joined by Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore, who are also Kabbalah enthusiasts. The trio is expected to visit the gravesites of famous Jewish rabbis, ABCNews.com reported

Justin Timberlake reportedly plans to attend one of Madonna's concert and visit a Kabbalah center.
