Madonna, 65, shares picture of herself giving her father Silvio a hug on his 93rd birthday as she thanks him for sharing his life mantra with her: ‘I’m going to go until the wheels come off’

Madonna took to Instagram on Monday to share a series of photos of herself with her father Silvio Ciccone on his 93rd birthday.

The hitmaker, 65, posted adorable rare snaps with her Italian dad as she paid a heartfelt tribute.

One photo showed the artist giving him a big hug while wearing a corset and fishnets, as he appeared to be at one of her concerts.

She wrote, “To the OG Daddy – Happy 93rd Birthday Silvio! Congratulations on riding the roller coaster of life with your humor and common sense intact.

‘Thank you for sharing with me your mantra in life: that’s it. “I’ll keep going until the wheels fall off.” Nothing can stop us! I love you to the moon and back.”

Among the beautiful series of snaps, Madonna shared a throwback photo with her mother Madonna Louise Ciccone from when she was a little toddler.

Madonna, who lost her mother when she was just five years old, has previously been incredibly open about her heartbreaking loss at such a young age.

In another photo, a young Madonna stood on stage with her beaming father at an old concert.

Fans were left stunned when Madonna shared a photo of her father as a young child, claiming she looked just like him.

Some comments read: ‘I never realized how much you look like your dad until I saw the last photo.’

“I mean, some people invented computers, some people get gold medals, some people find antidotes and so on. But this gentleman can say that he created MADONNA!!!’

‘You look so much like your dad!!’

“Wow, now I see that you got your beautiful eyes from your father.”

It comes after Madonna responded to a class action lawsuit claiming her concert start times are “false advertising” as she never starts on time.

In January, the 65-year-old singer was sued by concertgoers Michael Fellows and Jonathan Hadden after her three shows at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn last December started hours after the time stated on the tickets.

Now the singer has filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit TMZin which she claims that true fans would know that she never starts on time.

The dismissal documents claim that true fans would know that she often runs past her allotted time due to her late starts and most true fans realize this.

‘If a fan is familiar enough with Madonna’s concert history to know that her performances last two hours and fifteen minutes, that fan would certainly know that Madonna typically takes the stage well after the allotted time for the event (after an opening act, set transition and so on ) and plays late into the night,” the document claims.

The shows named in the original lawsuit took place on December 13, 14 and 16, with Fellows and Hadden claiming they were scheduled to start at 8:30 PM but did not start until 10:30 PM.

The original lawsuit alleged “willful practice of false advertising, negligent misrepresentation, and unfair and deceptive trade practices.”

They also state that Madonna has a long history of not starting her concerts on time.

The fans say they were sent $155.90 and $292.50 for the tickets, respectively, and are suing for unspecified damages.

The singer filed a response to the lawsuit in April, claiming, “No reasonable concertgoer — and certainly not a Madonna fan — would expect the headliner of a major concert to take the stage in the arena at the time it event was going to take place.”

“Fans got exactly what they paid for: a full, high-quality show from the Queen of Pop,” the statement said.

The submitter also shared a Facebook post from Hadden in which he raved about the show, adding that he has “never missed a Madonna tour.”

Madonna was also hit with a federal lawsuit filed by three fans – Elizabeth Halper-Asefi, Mary Conoboy and Nestor Monte, Jr. – in April. – who said she started her show at Capital One Arena in Washington DC two hours late.

They also claimed that Madonna “created a warm and uncomfortable temperature in the venue during her performance” and that she, ‘lip sync[ed] a large part of her achievements.’

The disgruntled concertgoers stated that these alleged actions represent “Madonna’s arrogant and total disrespect” for ticket holders.

“Essentially, Madonna and Live Nation are consumers’ worst nightmare,” the lawsuit said.

During her tour stop in D.C. on Dec. 18, prosecutors recalled the mother of six telling the audience, “I’m sorry I’m late… no, I’m not sorry, it’s who I am… .I’m always late. ‘

“Defendants failed to notify ticket holders that the concerts would begin much later than the start time printed on the ticket and as advertised, resulting in ticket holders waiting for hours for the concerts to begin at the venue,” alleges the lawsuit. .
