At the age of 53, and looking as young as ever, pop diva Madonna is all set to embark on yet another world tour, starting May 31st in Tel Aviv. Mid-Day has an awesome interview with her that you can read in more detail, but what I wanted to share some fun, quirky facts that are mentioned in it – and a few that were left out. 🙂

1) Madonna was once the drummer for New York based Pop group Breakfast Club.
