Exactly a week after Madonna celebrated Mother’s Day with five of her six children, her thoughts turned to her own late mother, Madonna Louise Fortin Ciccone.

The 66-year-old music icon chose to cover her signature platinum-blonde bob with a wavy brunette wig, expressing: ‘I missed my mother so I channeled her…’

Originally from Michigan, Madonna – who has 54.6 million social media followers – shared various views of the noticeable wig, likely sourced by her hairstylist, Orlando Pita.

Since the seven-time Grammy winner was given the same name as the Michigan-born matriarch, her family nicknamed her ‘Little Nonnie.’

Madonna was only five when her mom tragically died, age 30, in 1963 from breast cancer after welcoming six children.

‘It was just the greatest event of my life. It was like a part of my heart was ripped out,’ the Material Girl recalled in Sky documentary Becoming Madonna in January.

‘I was forced to grow up fast and understand my mother’s death, to understand the psychological, all things that were going on. It was too much for a child I think.

Last year, Madonna revealed she was kept in the dark about her mother’s terminal illness.

‘Nobody told me my mother was dying,’ the self-made superstar wrote on Instagram.

‘I just watched her disintegrate mysteriously, and then she disappeared, and there was no explanation except that she had gone to sleep, which explains my tumultuous relationship with sleep.’

Each night of Madonna’s $225.3M-grossing, 81-date Celebration Tour she would project an image of her mother during her 2003 song Mother and Father.

‘When I stepped out on the stage and looked up at my mother’s face every night, I said, “Hello,”‘ the two-time Golden Globe winner continued.

‘I said, “Goodbye.” I said, “Thank you. I hope you’re proud of me.” I said, “Please protect me and keep me sane.”‘

Madonna famously visited her grave at the Calvary Cemetery in Kawkaklin, MI for a scene in Alek Keshishian’s 1991 documentary Truth or Dare.

The Italian-American diva’s father Silvio Ciccone – who turns 94 on June 2 – was married to the family’s housekeeper Joan Gustafson from 1966 until her September 24th death, at age 81, from cancer.

Last week, Madonna shared a snap of herself surrounded by her 12-year-old identical twin daughters Estere and Stella, 19-year-old daughter Mercy, 28-year-old daughter Lourdes Leon, and 19-year-old son David Banda. 

The only one missing from the Mother’s Day festivities was the two-time divorcée’s 24-year-old son Rocco Ritchie from her seven-year marriage to second ex-husband Guy Ritchie, which ended in 2008.

‘Sunshine laughter, horseback riding, soccer, and the sound of music!’ Madonna gushed.

‘The best gift they gave me was the gift of not arguing and being loving to one another. When you raise children to be unique and opinionated, you also create your own debate team!

‘Motherhood could never be described with a few words. Nothing can prepare you. Happy Mother’s Day to all the women out there doing the heavy Lifting!’

On May 12, Deadline reported that the Evita alum will team up with producer Shawn Levy on a Netflix limited series about her life and music, which is in early development.

The project is not related to the self-directed biopic Who’s That Girl, starring Julia Garner, which Madonna co-wrote with Erin Cressida Wilson after Universal Pictures shelved it.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer previously helmed two dismally-reviewed box office bombs – Filth and Wisdom in 2008, and W.E. in 2011.

Madonna will ‘soon’ re-release her sixth studio album Bedtime Stories and she’s recording a sequel to her 2005 dance album, Confessions on a Dance Floor, with musical director Stuart Price.

The Raising Malawi co-founder – who averages 39.1M monthly listeners on Spotify – is the world’s best-selling female recording artist and the most successful solo artist in the history of the US Billboard Hot 100 chart with 44 No. 1 singles.
