Madonna Feels She Was "Tricked by the World"

This self-described "rather strict mom of two kids" has achieved worldwide fame. In an interview with Ladies Home Journal, the 46-year-old woman reflected on her past, saying,

I hurt people by confusing them. One minute I was saying, "Believe in yourself," and the next I was saying, "Just be sexually provocative for the sake of it." Now that's confusing. …I was just not thinking. I let myself be tricked. Yeah, be tricked by the physical world, knowing I was getting attention, letting it pump up my ego. Aren't I great, they're writing about me, my picture's on the cover of every magazine. I'm so fabulous. I wasn't saying those things out loud, but deep down inside, they were there.

The mother? Madonna.
