Madonna in the November 2013 issue of Harper’s Bazaar.The singer revealed in an essay that she was raped at knifepoint when she was living in New York City.

"Most people thought I was strange. I didn’t have many friends,” she wrote. “But it all turned out good in the end, because when you aren’t popular and you don’t have a social life, it gives you more time to focus on your future.”

Throughout the essay Madonna returns to a theme she’s certainly familiar with: Daring.

“If I can’t be daring in my work or the way I live my life, then I don’t really see the point of being on this planet,” she wrote.
