Madonna, who turns 50 on August 16, got an early birthday present from her home state of Michigan - more than 500 fans sang "Happy Birthday" to her. That's Madonna there on the left.
The Material Girl is seen here at the Fourth Annual Traverse City Film Festival with founder Michael Moore. "You can take the girl out of Michigan but you can't take Michigan out of the girl," Madonna told the hundreds of fans gathered in a theater for the premiere of her documentary I Am Because We Are, about orphans in Malawi.
You know, I once had hundreds of people sing "Happy Birthday" to me, too. Well, actually it wasn't "Happy Birthday," it was "Take Me Out to The Ballgame." Okay, so it wasn't really just for me, it was being sung at a baseball game by hundreds of drunk fans trying to get on the JumboTron. Hey, a girl can dream, can't she?
