Publisher Description

At the age of forty-three, with a career that spans two decades and ranges from the scandalous to the transcendent, Madonna is a bigger phenomenon than ever. But who is the private woman behind the public image? Andrew Morton, whose #1 New York Times bestsellers about Princess Diana and Monica Lewinsky have proved his ability to gain access to insiders who won't talk to anyone else, answers that question in this decidedly unauthorized biography. Morton's extensive, in-depth interviews with members of Madonna's inner circle - lovers, friends (even as far back as school friends), and business connections, many of whom have never spoken before now - allow him to go behind the carefully constructed myths to unmask the real Madonna. Andrew Morton is able to make startling revelations, among them the real story of Madonna's family background; the events behind the violent attack that changed her views on sex and men; her relationships with Michael Jackson, Prince, John F. Kennedy Jr., Vanilla Ice, and other rock and Hollywood stars; the mystery man she wanted to marry; and the darkest days of her career when she threatened to quit show business. From motherless child to wife and mother, from "boy toy" to fiercely independent diva, Madonna is one of the most remarkable women of our time.

"Of course it was amazing...it's about Madonna! It's been a while since I read it though...maybe I should re-read it. "

    " This book is alright, I wish that the author would go into more detail about Madonna's life. The sentences seem to general and is boring to read. Though there are some interesting things that you don't know about Madonna. "

    " I thought this was better than the newest Madonna book. Tells so much more about her growing up, family life, coming to be... but it's unauthorized, so who knows how much is really true. Andrew Morton is well-renowned as a biographer though. Pretty good book. "

    " How Madonna became Madonna has long been intriguing to me ever since I was able to recognize her type. The book has some great bits where her personality is manifested, but it has too much fluff to receive any more hearts than I gave. "
