London,
(ANI):
Queen
of
Pop
Madonna
has
revealed
that
she
toughened
up
only
after
nude
photos
of
hers
were
published.
Madge,
51,
whose
reputation
skyrocketed
when
a
series
of
sexy
shots,
in
which
she
appeared
totally
naked,
surfaced
in
Playboy
and
Penthouse
magazines
in
1985,
was
determined
to
succeed
following
the
criticism
she
got.
And
as
industry
experts
feared
the
scandal
would
end
her
career,
she
turned
it
to
her
advantage
and
became
one
of
the
most
famous
stars
in
the
world.
Madonna
admits
she
was
so
outraged
at
the
criticism
of
the
photos
she
developed
a
steely
attitude
that
helped
her
survive
in
the
music
industry.
"That
was
the
first
time
I
was
aware
of
saying
'F**k
you'
with
my
attitude.
'You're
trying
to
put
me
down
because
of
this?'" the
Daily
Express
quoted
her
as
telling
Rolling
Stone
magazine.
"I
(wasn't)
going
to
let
public
opinion
dictate
my
own
feelings
about
myself.
I
(wasn't)
going
to
apologise
for
anything
I've
done,"
she
added.
