Over the years, Madonna has never ceased to re-invent herself. The Material Girl became the world's first multimedia icon proving herself in music, fashion, film and theater. Wherever Madonna goes, controversy is sure to follow. From herscandalous music video for "Like A Prayer" to her sexually charged coffee table book to her infamous same-sex kiss with Britney Spears at the VMAs, Madonna knows how to get people riled up. But there is another side of Madge. Madonna is also a children's book author, humanitarian and mother of four. While Madonna has been married to both Sean Penn and Guy Ritchie, since her divorce from the British director Madonna has been romantically involved with much younger men, earning her quite a reputation as a cougar to contend with.
