Madonna

Provocative and edgy, Madonna started becoming nothing short of an icon in the 1980s. She had a number of hit songs such as “Like A Virgin,” La Isla Bonita” and “Papa Don’t Preach”  that made her a musical phenomenon. Though half the attention she was getting was partly due to her unabashed attitude to not hide her sex appeal.

As the reigning queen of pop and one of the greatest songwriters of her time, Madonna has also acted in several films such as A League Of Their Own, Desperately Seeking Susan, Dick Tracy, and Evita. Aside from being a philanthropist and mom, the 63-year-old is still going strong with musical tours all over the world.
