Today the Queen of Pop, Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone Ritchie, hits the milestone of 50 years of age.
Born on August 16, 1958 in Bay City Michigan, over the past three decades Madonna has become one of contemporary music’s greatest, controversial and prolific stars.
To mark the occasion, Gigwise presents a guide in pictures to Madonna’s career - one in which she has constantly strove to re-invent herself and dominated the higher echelons of the charts.
