Though the star is set to revisit it all in an upcoming documentary about her life, she couldn't wait to share with fans juicy details about her past, and opened up like never before in a new video on her YouTube channel.

The Like a Virgin hitmaker absolutely did not hold back, and shockingly revealed that some of her regrets included not one but both of her marriages.

The mother-of-six was first married to actor Sean Penn, from 1985 to 1989, during the height of her popularity. Then, in 2000, she married Guy Ritchie, until 2008, and he is the father of her son Rocco, who recently turned 22.

The shocking revelation came when the interviewer, a digital voice, asked about a life decision that "wasn't the best idea."

Madonna wasn't shy when it came to speaking candidly about her love life, and when asked about her greatest guilty pleasure, astrological sign, current favorite obsession, secret to success, life mantra and the act that keeps her going, she had the same single-word answer: "Sex."

The act even inspired an answer about her fashion, revealing that the one thing she would choose to wear for the rest of her life if she had to was her "24-karat gold vibrator necklace."
