took on female rights as well as
rallying to open minds and fight
censorship. In the Noughties, she
gained serious and well-deserved
credibility with one of the finest,
and coolest, albums of her career.
To this day, Madonna remains
intent on questioning the ethics
of a headline-hungry press that
never leave her be. Her new
quest? To take on ageism in its
many forms and convince all of
us – but particularly women – that
we’re not just invisible because of
a number. She was MTV’s Artist
Of The Decade at the close of the
Eighties and last year became
Billboard’s
Woman Of The Year.
In this special edition, we
celebrate the many factors that
have come together to create
such an incredible human
being, from her music, videos,
films and fashion through to her
entrepreneurial know-how and
unflinching humanitarian work.
Enjoy the issue…

D E C A D E S
EARLY 1980S: STARLIGHT,
STAR BRIGHT
8
Wannabe dancer turned punk-rock drummer
immersed in the New York underground to
global pop supernova – somehow Madonna’s
unflinching desire to succeed took her from
making ends meet in a low-rent bedsit to the
world stage and Live Aid
LATE 1980S: CALL MY NAME
26
A new album through which to express her
state of newlywed bliss, followed by a very
public breakdown, led to Madonna’s pop
masterstroke and universal acclaim
1990S: STRIKE A POSE
44
It’s the decade that gave birth – with the
help of Jean-Paul Gaultier – to Madonna the
icon, not forgetting a newfound faith and a
collaboration bound for the stratosphere
2000S: HEY, MR DJ
64
A new era for the Queen of Pop in which
she took her pop sensibilities into the clubs
via two hip producers from both sides of
the Channel, married a film producer with a
penchant for gangsters, snogged her younger
rivals, toured the world and made the
biggest-selling single of her career…
2010S: BITCH I’M MADONNA 84
A return to the director’s chair for a big-
budget biopic, a clothing line, a chain of
gyms, two brand new albums, an all-singing,
all-dancing Super Bowl performance watched
by more people than anything else in history,
and a whole lot of lawsuits…
