Madonna Showed Her Grief for the Death of Her Brother Christopher Ciccone

Madonna‘s brother, Christopher Ciccone, died at the age of 63 years on Friday. The pop music artist shared a tribute to her brother as he was the closest to her. A family representative shared the news of his death and said that he had died in Michigan due to suffering from cancer. Christopher was 2 years younger than the singer and losing him has been quite tough for her.

After his death, Madonna shared a series of their photos together and wrote ‘My brother Christopher is gone. He was the closest human to me for so long. It’s hard to explain our bond but it grew out of an understanding that we were different and society was going to give us a hard time for not following the status quo’.

She also added that says ‘We took each other‘s hands and we danced through the madness of our childhood. In fact dance was a kind of superglue that held us together. Discovering Dance in our small Midwestern town saved me and then my brother came along, and it saved him too. My ballet Teacher, also named Christopher, created a safe space for my brother to be Gay, a word that was not spoken or even whispered where we lived.

‘When I finally got the courage to go to New York to become a Dancer, my brother followed. And again we took each other’s hands, and we danced through the madness of New York City! We devoured Art and Music and Film like hungry animals, we were in the epicenter of all of these things exploding. We danced through the madness of the AIDS epidemic. We went to funerals and we cried, and we went dancing.

The pop artist showed her grief as both of them worked together for a long time in their musical career. She even said ‘The last few years have not been easy. We did not speak for some time but when my brother got sick, we found our way back to each other. I did my best to keep him alive as long as possible. He was in so much pain towards the end. Once again, we held hands. We closed our eyes and we danced. Together. I’m glad he’s not suffering anymore. There will never be anyone like him. I know he’s dancing somewhere.
