Living for this! As teased last week, the Queen
of Pop, 56, recently chatted with Us Weekly's Entertainment Director Ian Drew
for an extended interview about her legacy, her romantic past, her kids, her
famous friends (including her crush, Drake!) and much, much more. Read this
very special edition of 25 Things You Don't Know About Me now!
1. My all-time favorite Madonna song is “Bitch
I’m Madonna” — naturally. And my least favorite is “Material Girl.” I never
want to hear it again!
2. My favorite city is Rome. I’s so beautiful.
The light is soothing and calming to me, and the architecture is splendid and
the food is incredible. I totally love it.
3. I can’t stand mushrooms. Or escargot. Yuck!
It’s like snot. Expensive snot.
4. The person I idolize most is Paul Farmer.
He’s a doctor and activist who rebuilt the health-care system in Haiti even
before the 2010 earthquake. He’s done the same in Rwanda.
5. The last time I went grocery shopping was a
year ago.
6. I miss absolutely nothing about growing up
in Michigan. Nothing at all.
7. The person I most want to meet is President
Obama. When the heck am I going to meet him? He just needs to invite me to the
White House already. He probably thinks I’m too shocking to be there. I’m
serious. If I was a little bit more demure…or if I was just married to Jay Z.
Hey, if Jay would only take me as his second wife, then I’d score an
invitation.
8. The one thing I’d never be caught dead
wearing is a fur bikini.
9. My happiest moments were when my children
[Lourdes, 18, Rocco, 14, David, 9, and Mercy, 9] were born and when I got
married both times [to Sean Penn and Guy Ritchie].
10. My favorite part of my body is my eyes. My
least is my dancer’s feet. They are pretty disgusting.
11. I have found marriages don’t last if you
share bathrooms. The best thing about being single is there’s no one to throw
out of the bathroom when I want privacy.
12. The thing I miss least about marriage is
being called “the wife.” The worst.
13. My most fattening indulgence is either
pizza or french fries. Or potato chips, actually. Love them all.
14. The last time I was starstruck was when
[French actor] Alain Delon called me while I was in Copenhagen during my last
tour. I was trying to get him to do an onstage cameo during a small show in
Paris. I was shaking because I love him so much! I never met the dude and only
knew him from movies. He was my ridiculous teenage crush.
15. I don’t really watch TV. I only like two
shows — True Detective and an Irish series called The Fall - and I’m not
embarrassed about them. Many people say, “The Fall with Jamie Dornan,” but I
say, “The Fall with Gillian Anderson.” She’s so good.
16. The lifelong ambition I still want to
fulfill is to go on a dream date with Drake — and only kiss him.
17. The most embarrassing moment of my life was
falling off stage — let me rephrase that, being choked off the stage by two
little Japanese girls — at the 2015 Brit Awards. Extremely embarrassing!
18. The most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen was
my daughter [Lourdes] playing the ukulele and singing “La Vie en Rose” for me.
19. My secret beauty ritual is to put ice on my
eyes every morning. Ice, ice baby.
20. Speaking of, if I were trapped on a desert
island with either [ex-boyfriend] Vanilla Ice or Dennis Rodman, I would pick
Dennis. He has a better sense of humor. Plus, he could always wear my clothes.
21. The quality I most loathe in people is
making assumptions. Not doing research, investigating or asking questions and
just assuming something. Oh, that drives me bonkers. I also can’t stand when
I’m talking to someone and they’re texting. My kids will do it! It drives me up
the wall. I always put my hand on their phones and ruin whatever they’re doing.
22. I can’t say what my worst date was, but
there have been many. I’m a woman of the world, baby. One nonnegotiable
attribute in a lover: He must not ever want to be away from me for more than
two weeks at a time.
23. I have major claustrophobia. I don’t like
being stuck in small, enclosed spaces or in crowds. They freak me out.
24. My ideal day off is spent lying in bed all
day — sleeping for a few hours, then waking up and watching old movies, like my
favorite, Breathless. I eat in bed, have my children come hang out with me, and
then I fall back asleep. I never leave the bedroom.
25. My favorite memories of Michael Jackson
were getting him to let down his guard. He was so shy. The time I succeeded
most was after I got him drunk at the Ivy in Beverly Hills. I was driving my
Mercedes and dared him to throw his sunglasses out the window. We couldn’t stop
laughing.
