American pop diva Madonna today, August 16, celebrates her anniversary. The star turns 60 years old.

Madonna is called the queen of pop music. She is the best selling performer in the world. The star entered the Guinness Book of Records as the most commercially successful singer in the history of the record industry.

So in the world on all existing formats of carriers - cassettes, CDs and records, and also in the form of digital copies, over 300 million Madonna records were sold.

Madonna is the richest woman in the music business. According to Forbes, the amount of Madge is $ 580 million.

However, this is not all records set by Madonna. Released in 1990, the album of the best hits of the performer Immaculate Collection lasted in the charts of 338 weeks, and this is 6.5 years. At the same time more than two months the collection was headed by the hit parade.

And the singer is happy mother - the star brings up six children. She has two biological and four foster children from Malawi. Two of them - twin girls Madge adopted in early 2017.

For her many years of career, the singer has rightly received the title of an outrageous scandal.

She was the first to use erotic images in her videos and speeches, and her church repeatedly condemned her for using religious themes in her work. We suggest recalling the most shocking images of a star.
