On July 26, reigning queen of pop Madonna posted an Instagram video depicting a country-style family barbecue complete with pool floats, puppies, cowboy attire and a metallic glamping (glam camping) vehicle — which was designed by Montreal-based "mobile space" designer Custom Airstream.

The custom airstream company in Montreal said Madonna's 1975 Airstream Sovereign 31' vehicle was designed in the likeness of a five-star hotel, featuring a custom leather couch and matching armchairs, retractable 50-inch TV monitors, a minibar and ice bin, heated floors, a tufted wall with custom light fixtures, a top-of-the-line sound system and custom under-carriage lights.

The RV even converts into a cigar lounge, built with a custom humidor and commercial air purifiers.

The price tag? A cool $200,000 USD. And Custom Airstream said other custom builds could cost up to $500,000 USD.

It's not the first time the Montreal-based camper customization company has worked with Madge. It also partnered with her on a "personal project" she hosted in the Hamptons in 2014.

"We're beyond excited to be part of Madonna's fun family moment," said a statement by David Schirmer, vice-president of sales and marketing at Custom Airstream.

"We woke up to a flood of phone calls, email and social media messages. People have been knocking down our door – it's been overwhelming in the best way possible. It's such an honour for our humble Québec company to add a little magic to Madonna's American Life!"
