Brave Madonna back in the saddle

Pop queen Madonna has taken up horse-riding again, seven months after a horrific riding accident that left her battered and bruised.

The Material Girl broke her collarbone, ribs, and hand when she fell from a horse at her Wiltshire, England, estate on her 47th birthday last August.

And the singer isn't letting memories of the traumatic fall stop her from riding again.

Speaking about her accident recently, she said: "I tried to stand up and my whole skeleton collapsed on me and I fainted. I cried a lot, mostly from pain. When you can't set bones it's painful."
