Madonna

Ever since she burnt onto the pop scene in the early eighties, Madonna has remained one of the most well-known celebrities in the world. She has shown herself to be a talented singer, songwriter and actress. To have achieved this she undoubtedly has a strong belief in herself and abilities.

It is possible she gained her strong personality through her touch childhood experiences. She went to a strict catholic school, was one of many children, and her family was split up after her mother died from cancer. Eventually, in search of fame, she left college and went to New York with only her suitcase and a few dollars.

Hugely successful, often through controversy, Madonna has always known what the public and media want. She has gone from shocking clothes and pop songs to setting trends and family life.

Throughout all her years and different styles and phrases, she has always been able to give the general public entertainment.
