Madonna turns 60 on Thursday. To celebrate, we’re taking a look back at her 35 years in the industry.
Since Madonna’s eponymous debut album hit the shelves in 1983, she’s performed on 10 concert tours and sold more than 300 million records.
This has earned her a spot in the Guinness World Records as the best-selling female recording artist of all time.
Twelve of Madonna’s albums have hit the number one spot. Only the Beatles and Elvis Presley can boast more.
Greatest hits album The Immaculate Collection spent a 338 weeks in the charts after its release in 1990 – including more than two months at number one.
