Madonna, the iconic “Queen of Pop,” stands at a height of 5ft 3 ¼ inches (160.7 cm) with a peak height of 5ft 4 inches (162.6 cm).

The Impact of Height in Celebrity Self-Perception: Madonna’s Perspective
She once mentioned feeling like a “shrimp” in an interview due to her height, although she believed it was average. For context, the average American woman typically has a height of around 5 feet 4 inches.
I’ve always wanted to be taller. I feel like a shrimp, but that’s the way it goes. I’m five-foot four-and-a-half-inches – that’s actually average. Everything about me is average. Everything’s normal, in the books. It’s the things inside me that make me not average.

Los Angeles, Oct 22 (Ians) Pop icon Madonna paid an emotional tribute to her children when she kicked off her electric Celebration tour – with five of her six children taking the stage alongside her.
Rocco Ritchie did not embrace the superstar’s return to stage with the same enthusiasm as his siblings, reports Mirror.co.uk. In the wake of her dramatic collapse and rush to hospital in June, Rocco has told his friends he worries she will push herself too hard and fall ill again.
One of his friends told Mirror.co.uk: “Madonna is a notorious perfectionist and Rocco remembers her previous tours well – she has a habit of exhausting herself by pushing too hard because she cares so much. He is really worried that her health will suffer if she does the same thing again.”

Madonna’s daughter Lourdes Leon has launched her music career with her debut single “Lock&Key”, which contains a reference to Lady Gaga.
On Wednesday (24 August), the 25-year-old fashion model released the song under the name Lolahol.
Co-produced by Eartheater, the single combines Leon’s gentle vocals with experimental electro beats, to produce a quick-paced club bop.
“No sleep, next plane, no sleep, make-up, next club, next car, next plane, no sleep, no fear,” Leon sings on the track.
The lyrics seem to make a nod toward the “Bad Romance” singer’s response in an old interview to describe her work ethic and lifestyle: “No sleep, bus, club, ‘nother club, ‘nother club, plane, next place, no sleep, no fear.”
Gaga and Madonna share a complex history. In 2011, some of Madonna’s fans accused Gaga of copying her 1989 song “Express Yourself” for the 2011 track “Born This Way”.

It’s difficult for many of us to believe that Madonna is growing up enough that she has adult kids. Realistically, we know that she’s an adult who has been around for a long time, but we grew up with her. She’s forever emblazoned in our minds as a 20-something who likes to sing, dance and perform and entertaining the idea that she has a son who is 20 in addition to her other kids who are even older than he is simply mind-boggling. However, Madonna’s son, Rocco Ritchie, is an adult, and we thought we might take a few moments

What a confession! During a recent interview on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, actor Sean Penn candidly revealed he is still "very much" in love with his first wife, Madonna. When asked by host Stephen Colbert to choose between Madonna and Britney Spears as his favorite pop singer, the 57-year-old star replied, "Ah, I love my first wife very much. There’s no [comparison]… you don’t compare those things." Stephen then chimed in to say, "People compare them all the time! So, you’re going to go with Madonna?" to which Sean said, "Sure!" The Milk actor previously tied the knot with Madonna, 59, back in 1985 but the two divorced just four years later in 1989. At the time, the union was both Sean and Madonna's first marriage, though the two have each since been hitched to one other person.

Madonna shocked fans when she flashed her breast and butt to an audience of over 80,000 people during a performance at the Stande de France on Saturday July 14 -- whoa! Is she too old for this at 53-years-old? Vote! Madonna, not one to shy away from baring skin, flashed her audience while performing her 1995 hit "Human Nature" on Saturday July 14 in Paris, France! The said nip-slip was brief, but Madonna, 53, turned around and pulled down her trousers, revealing her G-string for those who enjoyed the first flash! Madonna also depicted the leader of one of France's biggest political parties as a Nazi -- leading her to possibly face criminal prosecution. Florian Philippot, vice-president of the National Front found the move “unacceptable” and vowed to file legal papers as early as next week! This isn't the first time Madonna flashed her body parts for concertgoers -- she's done this more than once before!

Allegedly, of course!
The riders for touring musicians run the gamut from pretty basic (Adele) to lavishly extravagant (hello, Jennifer Lopez), but if you pick up this week's In Touch Weekly (via Boy Culture) (and if you believe In Touch Weekly … which, you know, you do at your own risk), Madonna is quite the demanding diva.
The pop superstar has been making headlines around the world on her "Mdna Tour." Last week, she was flashing her breast in Istanbul, Turkey, and the other day she mooned the audience in Rome. She got a reaction out of Lady Gaga after she performed an on-stage mash-up of her 1989 classic "Express Yourself" with Gaga's hit "Born This Way" (hint: they still sound kind of the same-ish), and is encountering threats of legal action from French politician Marine Le Pen because of an image of the conservative leader with a swastika on her forehead...
