The Secret Behind Madonna's New Tattoo Madonna Madonna Gets Another Tattoo what it means. Madonna shared her latest tattoo with her fans in a video. Madonna's new tattoo has a special meaning for her. The meaning of Madonna's tattoo is related to her family: Madonna's Children and her mother. Madonna Gets Another Tattoo as a Tribute to Her Late Mom: 'My Turn to Bleed for My Mother' Madonna also has tattoos of her six children's initials, a Hebrew word, a design from Kabbalah and an "X" in honor of her most recent album The music icon, 63, posted a video and images to her Instagram account on Monday that show her going under the needle for some new ink on her wrist. The tattoo says "Maman" — the French word for "mother" — and is in honor of Madonna's late mom and namesake, Madonna Louise Fortin, who died in 1963 when the singer was 5 years old. In the Instagram video she shared, Madonna is heard saying, "I'm doing this for my mother." As Sly and the Family Stone's track "Family Affair" plays, a tattoo artist at Brooklyn parlor Lovers & Killers is seen working on Madonna's right wrist, adding the word just beneath her "X" tattoo, which is in honor of her 2019 album Madame X. Later in the clip, the "Vogue" singer is heard saying, "Because when you give birth, what do you do? You bleed." "It's all connected," she continues. She also tells son David Banda, who comes to check on her progress, "I can't put my mother's name, because it's the same as mine. It would look like I put my own damn name on my arm!" "True, true," David, 16, replies. Once the tattoo is completed, Madonna tells the camera, "My mother bled for me, and so I'm bleeding for her. It's a family affair." She echoed the same sentiment in the caption to her video post, writing, "My turn to bleed for my mother." The death of Madonna's mother has served as inspiration in her work throughout her music career, from "Promise to Try" off of her hit 1989 album Like a Prayer and "Mer Girl" from 1998's Ray of Light to 2003's "Mother and Father" on her record American Life. She has repeatedly mentioned it as a formative experience in her youth, including in her 1991 documentary Truth or Dare. In her Instagram Stories on Monday, Madonna shared several further photos of the new ink, along with ones of her other recent tattoo — a "tree of life" geometric design popular in the Kabbalistic tradition she follows. Images also showed David appearing to have the same tattoo on his arm to match his mother. Madonna's other tattoos include her first from 2020, a string of letters made up of the first initials of all six of her children: Lourdes Leon, 25, Rocco Ritchie, 21, David Banda, Mercy James, 16, and twins Stella and Estere, 9. She also boasts a Hebrew word taken from the book of Genesis, which loosely translates to "and he kissed." All of her ink is located on the insides of her wrists. Madonna Revisits Her '90s Hit 'Frozen' in First Music Video The pop icon, 63, dropped a music video on Thursday for the Madonna Vs Sickick Fireboy DML Remix of "Frozen" from her 1998 album Ray of Light Madonna is revisiting one of her timeless hits in a sumptuous new music video for a remix that first gained traction on TikTok last year. The video, for "Madonna Vs Sickick - Frozen (Fireboy DML Remix)," features the 63-year-old pop icon in a black leather getup featuring fishnet stockings, tassels and layered silver crucifixes. The song opens with the Material Girl's iconic lyrics from 1998's "Frozen," which appeared on her Grammy-winning seventh album Ray of Light: "How can life be what you want it to be? You're frozen, when your heart's not open." Recognizable images from the original monochromatic music video remain, like the black Doberman and a silhouette shattering into flying crows over a desert landscape. But the black-haired Madonna from the original late-'90s clip is replaced here with the contemporary version, rocking straight blonde locks, fishnets, wraparound sunglasses and hefty bling on her black-gloved fingers. Madonna is also seen smoking what appears to be a large blunt in the new clip. Soon, she is joined by Nigerian singer Fireboy DML, who dances next to her on his knees at one point and sings: "Baby, I've been there for so long, now you say you don't want this no more... Don't make me waste my time, I've been waiting all my life." Madonna first began touting a Sickick remix version of "Frozen" on social media months ago, after the song exploded in popularity after it debuted on TikTok last March. The artist went on to officially release the track in December, and as reported by Variety, that helped it reach even further success with more than 49 million global streams. The new video uses the Sickick remix and adds Fireboy DML as a featured artist. Madonna's last original music video was released in July 2019, for the song "Batuka" off of that year's album Madame X. She also dropped a music video last October for a remix of "Bitch I'm Loca" from the same album, featuring Maluma, but that clip featured reused behind-the-scenes footage from her Rolling Stone photoshoot.
