Madonna was born on the 16th of August 1958 in Rochester, Michigan, USA. Her family lived in Pontiac, Michigan at the time, but were visiting grandmother in Bay City when Madonna decided to appear in the world. She was christened Madonna Louise Ciccone, but her family used to called her "Little Nonni". When she was only five years old the mother she loved died of breast cancer. Madonna talks: "One of the hardest thing I"ve faced in my life was the death of my mother and that"s something I really haven"t got over to this day." Madonna learnt to be strong and independent early in life and she carries a clear memory of her mother"s courage: "She tried to keep her fear deep down inside and not let us know - she never complained".
