Madonna's Biography

Well-known as "the queen of the pop", Madonna Louise Ciccone was born on August 16th, 1958. She grew-up in Rochesters Michigan.

By the age of fifteen she started training as a dancer at the University of Michigan and with the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre in New-York city. Before singing with sire records, Madonna performed with a number of rock groups.

She was the first female artist to take full advantage of the music video, in fact, she collaborated with top designers, such as Jean-Paul Gaultier, photographers and directors. Gradually, she drew inspiration from underground club culture and the avant-garde to creat distinctive sexual and satirical images.

By 1991, Madonna had achieved 21 top ten hits in the United States and sold some 70 million albums, generating $1.2 billion in sales.

STORY WRITING!! PUBLISH IT

That day my life changed forever. I was watching tv when I saw a commercial that offered to participate in a tv show, where someone could win $ 1.000.000.
So, I decided to be part of the competition. The first week was awful because there were a lot of people that also wanted the money. Luckily, I managed to be in the last ten people selected, I couldn't believe it!!! and after 4 weeks I appeared on tv, it was the last programme, just me and another intelligent girl from Canada, I was very nervous and the tv presenter asked the final question."What colour is Trinidad Tobago's flag?".

It was my turn to answer.... but ...I didn't have a clue!! Unfortunately, the other girl knew it immediately. And of course my life changed for ever because after the show I decided to become a geography teacher. Shame on me!!! I should've known those colours...
