Madonna Biography

Birth Name: Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone
Birth Place: Bay City, MI
Date of Birth / Zodiac Sign: 08/16/1958, Leo
Profession: Singer; songwriter; music producer; dancer; actor

Britney, Christina and Jessica were all still in diapers when this unstoppable bottled blonde shot to stardom in the early '80s with her catchy pop songs and sexy, eye-catching videos. Although far from a powerhouse vocalist, the provocative diva ruled the charts for decades by repeatedly reinventing herself, both aesthetically and musically, and by constantly causing controversy, from her make-out session with a saint in "Like a Prayer" to her X-rated 1992 picture book Sex to her lip lock with Britney Spears at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards, which was viewed by many as Madonna's unique way of passing the torch to the next generation of pop stars. Her forays onto the big screen weren't as successful. She fared best when basically playing herself (Desperately Seeking Susan, Dick Tracy, the documentary Truth or Dare), but save for Evita, which earned her a Golden Globe, her attempts to be taken seriously as an actress (the wannabe screwball comedy Shanghai Surprise opposite first husband Sean Penn, the unwatchable remake of Swept Away directed by her second husband, Guy Ritchie) were met with critical and commercial scorn, as well as Razzie Awards. While Madonna hasn't exactly mellowed with age, she has shifted her focus. After years of a love-hate relationship with Catholicism, she became a very vocal follower of kabbalah. She also became a mother of two and an author of children's books, all while sporting a body most 20-year-olds would die for.
Madonna Fast Facts:

Idolized nuns when she was growing up.
Ranked in the top 2% of her high-school class, scoring straight As. Her IQ was said to be higher than 140.
Received a dance scholarship to the University of Michigan, but dropped out after a year to pursue her dream of becoming a dancer in New York City. She later scored a scholarship to the Alvin Ailey dance school.
Earned a place in pop-culture history with her writhing wedding-gown performance of "Like a Virgin" at the 1984 MTV Video Music Awards.
Made her Broadway debut in David Mamet's Speed-the-Plow in 1988 opposite Joe Mantegna and Ron Silver.
Formed Maverick Records in 1992, which released albums by artists such as The Prodigy, Michelle Branch and Alanis Morissette.
Published the controversial coffee-table book Sex in 1992. Since 2003, authored five children's books: The English Roses, Mr. Peabody's Apples, The Adventures of Abdi, Yakov and the Seven Thieves and Lotsa de Casha.
In 2002, she received a Razzie Award for her performance in Swept Away. Interestingly, she actually tied with fellow blonde pop diva Britney Spears, who earned a statuette for her turn in Crossroads.
Fell off a horse during a celebration for her 47th birthday in 2005 and sustained multiple injuries. She has since fully recovered.
