Madonna's "Rebel Heart"

Born Madonna Louise Ciccone on August 16, 1958, the "Living For Love" singer recently visited "The Howard Stern Show" to promote her new album "Rebel Heart" and she made two revelations: she dated the late Tupac Shakur and she was raped when she was 19.

What Madonna, now 56, did not disclose was the rapist. Apparently, it was not Shakur as she dated the late rapper when she was 34.

In October 2013, Madonna wrote an essay for Harper's Bazaar, in which she revealed that she had been raped during the late 1970s. At the time, she said New York was not everything she thought it would be.

According to Madonna, she moved from Rochester, Mi. to New York and the city did not welcome her with open arms. She wrote, "The first year, I was held up at gunpoint. Raped on the roof of a building. I was dragged up to with a knife in my back, and had my apartment broken into three times."

After revealing that she was raped in the 2013 essay, Madonna never talked about the incident until her recent interview with Stern. She said a "friendly" mad helped her one day when she was scrambling for change to make a payphone call.

The "friendly" man managed to persuade Madonna to make the call from his apartment across the street instead. In the apartment, she was dragged to the roof, where she was raped

When Stern and his co-host Robin Quivers asked her why she did not to press charges, Madonna said, "You've already been violated. It's just not worth it, it's too much humiliation."
