Madonna's homeless brother, an alcoholic who lives on the streets of Traverse City, Mich., says he has "no beef" with his superstar sister and the way she lives.

"I've never asked my sister for anything," Anthony Ciccone told the Daily Mail. "She don't owe me nothing. That's her sh*t, man. She made her money, she worked for it, I've got no beef. If she wants to live that way, that's her thing."

According to the Daily Mail, Ciccone, 56, has been living in poverty and sleeping under a bridge over the past 16 months. Though his father often comes to see him and bring him food, Ciccone believes he doesn't care whether he lives or dies.

"'My father would be very happy if I died of hypothermia and then he would not have to worry about it anymore. He’s old school, he grew up in the depression."

The same goes for his super star sister.

"Madonna doesn’t give a sh*t if I’m dead or alive.She lives in her own world," Ciccona told the Mail. "I never loved her in the first place, she never loved me. We never loved each other."

Ciccone has been photographed trying to survive Michigan's cruel winter, with temperatures sometimes dropping under 50 below zero.

When asked how he came to live in this state, Ciccone blamed the way "chips fell" in his family, adding that he'd rather be working than be homeless. He was reportedly fired from the family vineyard after he was discovered stealing from the cellar.

He is the oldest of eight siblings, and is two years older than Madonna.
