Word used when addressing Kamala Harris (5)

I believe the answer is:

madam

(Other definitions for madam that I've seen before include "Polite form of address for a woman" , "Make wildly happy" , "Woman with status - girl with bad manners" , "pompous young lady?" , "Woman of standing" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
