Madonna turned 58 Tuesday and celebrated with a trip to Havana, Cuba.

Other guests along for the Cuban visit included Madonna's two sons, Rocco and David, as well as her 19-year-old daughter Lourdes. Actress Debi Mazar posted an Instagram video of her ride from the airport -- alongside pal Rosie O'Donnell -- in a caravan of vintage 1950s cars.
