#ItaliansUnknown: Madonna People worldwide know Madonna as the Queen of Pop, but they might not know that her given name is Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone. Her paternal grandparents were Italian emigrants from Pacentro, Abruzzo, one of the ‘Borghi più belli d’Italia’! Madonna has built a legacy that transcends music and has been widely recognized for her continual reinvention. Italians do it better! #Madonna #Music #Pacentro #Abruzzo #Italy
