Madonna may seem like a really tough woman to cross. Known for being outspoken and for pushing the boundaries, she openly discussed her own rape encounter and the reason why she didn't report it to the authorities.
The Queen of Pop, who first talked about the traumatic incident when she sat down with Harper's Bazaar for an interview in 2013, returned to the topic of the alarming rape during an interview with Howard Stern on Wednesday.

The 56-year old singer, who was originally from the Midwest said that she just moved on her own to New York City, when it happened and blamed it on being a naïve and trusting 19-year old.
She told Stern that she was in shock and did not know anybody. "I was saying, 'Hi' to people on the street like a dork," she added.
She continued to share how her apartment kept getting broken into and was slowly losing her possessions due to the robberies. But despite that, she remained trustful of people-which sadly, one took advantage of.
Recalling the incident, she revealed that she was attending dance classes, and when she arrived, the door was locked. The "Living for Love" singer needed some money to use the payphone, which was when a friendly guy helped her out. Apparently, the guy had some ulterior motive and convinced her to make the call from his home, which was just across the street. When Madonna agreed and they got to his home, he then raped her.
When the 61-year old radio host asked her if she were able to report the incident to the police, she admitted that she hadn't, saying that she has already been violated. "It's just not worth it. It's too much humiliation," she said.
