Madonna (58 page)

In March 2000, Madonna confirmed that she was pregnant again. This time around, the father was Guy Ritchie. No wedding plans were announced at that time.

Regardless of what it is that she does next, Madonna is now a fixture in the history books, as one of the twentieth century's most written about, most photographed, and most discussed women. What does the future hold for her? “Though I have fears, I think truthfully I'm going to live to be a very old age. If what I've gone through hasn't killed me yet, nothing's going to. That's my fucking opinion,” she proclaimed. (246)

Always outspoken, always brilliantly cross-promoting, and always brashly unpredictable, Madonna continues to grow and evolve. Singer, actress, record company president, erotic sex goddess, mother, spiritual guru, and media icon, she never seems to tire of astounding the public. Love her or hate her, you cannot ignore her, even if you try. She has somehow managed to take a portion of talent, along with several freight trains full of determination and drive, and has turned it into the most successful example of blonde ambition in the history of mass media. She is a force to be reckoned with. She is Madonna.
