"I'm tough, I'm ambitious and I know exactly what I want. If that makes me a b****, OK." 

  • Born Madonna Louise Ciccone on Aug. 16, 1958, in Bay City, Michigan

  • Madonna won her first GRAMMY for Best Music Video, Long Form for Madonna — Blonde Ambition World Tour for 1991. She won her first audio category award for Best Dance Recording for "Ray Of Light" for 1998.
  • Madonna helped boost the career of GRAMMY-winning rappers the Beastie Boys when she had them open during her The Virgin Tour in 1985.
