Madonna’s Daughter Lourdes Leon Dishes on Life After High School

In many ways, Lourdes Leon isn’t your typical 18-year-old. Her mom is Madonna, after all.

But the Material Girl designer and recent high school graduate still has time in her busy schedule to hang with friends. Lourdes, who goes by Lola, recently posted on her blog about graduation, prom and how she’s been spending her last summer before college.

“HEY to all the readers. I don’t know if u heard (sarcasm) but I GRADUATED. GRAAAAAD. UATED. From High School. Its very difficult to wrap my head around because I feel like its something I’ve been talking about FOR EVER and it finally happened,” she wrote. “There also isn’t the ominous presence of another year of high school and test taking up ahead like there usually is when you’re about mid way into the beautiful summer.”

Lourdes is reportedly enrolled at the University of Michigan, the school her mother briefly attended in the 1970s before becoming a pop superstar.

But before heading off to college, Lourdes experienced another rite of passage: her high school prom.

“A week before graduation I attended the classic party every American teenager goes to despite the really bad music – this is known as prom. What can I say? Those of you who have been probably know exactly what I’m talking about. Of course I had a beautiful time but I’ll attribute that to the fact that I partied with my awesome friends all night,” she wrote.

“I got to spend an entire weekend kicking it with my high school homies. It was a great way to end the year.”
