Anthony Ciccone, the biological brother of famous singer Madonna, is homeless and living under a bridge in Michigan, USA.
Anthony Ciccone, a penniless man, insists he never siphoned money from his “super rich” sister.Anthony Ciccone slept under a bridge and relied on handouts after losing his job working for his father, 80-year-old Tony, at his vineyard last year.
However, Anthony said that he would never use his relationship with his 53-year-old sister Madonna – the singer known as the Queen of Pop and worth 400 million pounds – to help him escape “the miserable”.
The Ciccone family took a photo during a family reunion in 1986. On the left is Anthony, then 30 years old, and fifth from the left is Madonna, 28 years old.
The 55-year-old man told reporters: “I don’t want to make a fuss. If you’re here expecting me to tell stories about my sister, that’s not my type.
“Do you know that I haven’t answered this kind of question a thousand times? Why is my sister an enormously rich person, and I am a homeless person living on the streets? My family has turned away from me when I was going through a difficult time. That could happen to anyone.”
Anthony also revealed how harsh life outside is, and he was afraid of freezing to death. “You don’t know how terrible it is. You have nerve damage – you lose parts of your body. A friend of mine lost all 10 of his toes. Some died.”
Madonna Louise Ciccone also has three other sisters and three brothers. A man named Christopher Ciccone, 50, wrote an unauthorized book called “Living with My Sister Madonna.”
