Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone (born August 16, 1958 in Bay City, Michigan), known simply as Madonna, is an iconic dance-pop singer-songwriter, record and film producer, dancer, actress, author, philanthropist and fashion icon known as the Queen of Pop. She is noted for her ambitious music videos and stage performances as well as using political, sexual, and religious themes in her work. Throughout her nearly three-decade career, most of her songs have hit number one on the record charts, including Like a Virgin, Papa Don’t Preach, Like a Prayer, Vogue, Frozen, Music, Hung Up and 4 Minutes. Madonna has been praised by critics for her diverse musical productions while at the same time serving as a lightning rod for religious controversy.

In 2000, Guinness World Records listed Madonna as the most successful female recording artist of all time, with estimated worldwide sales of 200 million albums; in 2005, her record company credited her as having sold over 200 million albums worldwide. Madonna is the highest earning female singer of all time according to both the 2007 Guinness Book of Records and Billboard Magazine. Forbes magazine has named her one of the smartest business women. In addition, according to Rolling Stone, Madonna remains one of the greatest pop acts of all time. Furthermore, Madonna’s 2008/2009 Sticky & Sweet Tour holds the record for the highest-grossing concert tour ever by a female artist or solo with gross of $US408 million, surpassing the title previously held by her own Confessions Tour.
