Madonna: Trivia
- Her confirmation name was Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone.
- Brother Christopher Ciccone is an interior designer to the stars. He was also heavily involved in the staging of Madonna's 1990 ("Blond Ambition") and 1993 ("The Girlie Show") world tours and appears in the "Blond Ambition" tour documentary Truth or Dare. She dedicated her first greatest hits collection The Immaculate Collection to "the Pope, my divine inspiration". This was a reference to her brother, whose nickname is also "Pope". He designed the furniture in former President Bill Clinton's Harlem office.
- Is distantly related to Canadian superstar Céline Dion.
- Her own record label, Maverick Records, was responsible for the success of such stars as Alanis Morissette, Deftones, Me'shell Ndegeocello and Michelle Branch.

- Has been condemned by the Puerto Rican House of Representatives for pulling a Puerto Rican flag between her legs.
