Most people find comfort in talking with a friend or digging into a big bowl of ice cream, but not Madonna.
Then again, the 55-year-old songstress has never been like everyone else. She reveals in a new interview with Harper's Bazaar that as a struggling artist trying to make it in New York in the late '70s and early '80s, she had a strange way of making herself feel better.
"I would pull myself together and look at a postcard of Frida Kahlo taped to my wall, and the sight of her mustache consoled me," she tells the magazine. "Because she was an artist who didn't care what people thought. I admired her. She was daring. People gave her a hard time. Life gave her a hard time. If she could do it, then so could I."
Madonna persevered and, as we all know, a phenomenon was born.
