She really is a Material Girl! Madonna decides to sell her plush Beverly Hills home for a cool $28million

She once had a hit with a song about Hollywood, but now Madonna seems keen to leave Los Angeles behind.

The pop diva has decided to sell her $28million Beverly Hills home.

According to Real Estalker, the 53-year-old has put up the lavish French Country style mansion as a pocket listing.

This means that a real estate agent is contracted to sell the property, but it is not listed in the Multiple Listing Service or advertised.

When Madonna purchased the home in 2003 it was registered as having three bedrooms and five bathrooms.

However it is likely that the star has expanded and added to the space, a source told the NY Daily News.

She is also thought to have completely redecorated the 5,800 square foot property, which sits on 1.14 acres of land.

Features include a tennis court and a swimming pool, and the home is at the end of a long gated drive, adding to its privacy.

Madonna bought the mansion nine years ago, while she was married to Guy Richie, and is believed to have paid around $12million for it.

Selling the property means Madonna will be waving goodbye to her celebrity neighbours Simon Cowell, Max Mutchnick and Guilford Glazer.

However it could indicate the star is set to start spending more time in New York City, where she owns another home.

Madonna reportedly lives in an Upper East Side townhouse that she purchased for $32.5million in 2009.

On July 10 1985, The Playboy magazine issue of nude Madonna photos was released !!

Playboy publishes nude photos of Madonna taken before she was famous. The singer did a number of nude photo shoots from 1977-1980, starting when she was an 18-year-old student at the University of Michigan looking for some extra cash and trying to form a band. Now a huge star, Playboy publishes some of the shots taken in 1979 and 1980 in a revealing spread. A year earlier, the magazine turned down nude photos of Miss America winner Vanessa Williams , which their rival Penthouse published. "We think Vanessa genuinely didn't know what she was doing, didn't know her photos might be published," the article states. "Madonna, on the other hand, posed repeatedly for two noted photographers who routinely publish what they shoot." One of the photographers, Lee Friedlander, says of the shoot: "She seemed very confident, a street-wise girl." Madonna has little to say on the matter, but doesn't shy away. "I'm not ashamed,...
