“Because, whoever you are, having children and raising them is a work of art.
“And no one gives you a manual. You have to learn from mistakes.”
She went on: “It is a profession that requires a lot of time. And it is exhausting because there is never rest.”
The interview was a part of Vanity Fair’s first-ever icon issue.
On the cover of the glossy magazine, Madonna can be seen transformed into the Virgin Mary.
