Madonna was born on 16th of August, 1956. Her childhood was a hard time for her because her mother died when she was only five. When she was about 20 years old, she moved to Times Square, New York, with just 35 dollars, and her big dream was to become a rock singer.
In 1980, Madonna connived herself to a band called "The Breakfast Club". Soon after, she realized that, "The Breakfast Club" was a big mistake, and early in the year she left the band. Finally, after 4 years, Madonna found the right producer, and single "Everybody" was released. In 1982, the debut album called "Madonna" was released. When the second album "Like a virgin" came out, Madonna turned to be the most popular rock-star in the world. And she is still !! Madonna's Lucky Star never leaves her. She's a living legend.
