Due to the political climate of the country at the time, on April 1, 2003, Madonna pulled the video and released a statement explaining why: "I have decided not to release my new video. It was filmed before the war started and I do not believe it is appropriate to air it at this time. Due to the volatile state of the world and out of sensitivity and respect to the armed forces, who I support and pray for, I do not want to risk offending anyone who might misinterpret the meaning of this video." After pulling the original video, it was then released an edited version that premiered on April 16, 2003 on VH1, immediately after a special program called  Madonna Speaks .This version features Madonna singing in front of a backdrop of ever-changing flags of different countries.                                                         ...

April 1, 2008: Madonna Elle "Hard Candy Promotional" Interview.

Enlisting Timbaland, Pharrell and Justin Timberlake to help craft her boundary-burning record Hard Candy Madonna sits down with fanboy and fashion maven Simon Doonan to discuss the state-of-the-art dance album, her new film that will save the world, and why Lourdes loves to shop with mom. Wednesday, February 20, is quite possibly one of the most surreal days of my life. Things get off to a wacky start when my cabdriver – I am barreling toward JFK at some ungodly hour — insists on calling me “ma’am”, throughout the journey. In an effort to generate it bit of respek, I tell him the purpose of my trip. “I’m off to L.A. today, to interview Madonna,” I say in a manly, confident kind of way. “That, nice for you, ma,am,” he replies in a skeptical tone revealing that he believes me to be not just a woman, but it thoroughly deluded woman. The surrealism continues: On the plane, I make a complete spectacle of myself by sobbing all the way, through the 80-minute documentary I Am Because...

March 29,1985: Into the Groove video debuts on MTV.

In some ways,  Desperately Seeking Susan  is a chick flick. It stars Rosanna Arquette as Roberta, the unfulfilled wife of the self-proclaimed Hot Tub King of New Jersey. Today, her life as a wistful pampered suburban wife would have gotten her cast on Bravo, but in the innocent halcyon pre-reality television days of the 1980s it meant following a stranger’s life via the personals and getting a knock on the head for her trouble. The resulting amnesia leads Roberta on a wild ride through the seedy bowels of Manhattan and into the arms of Dez played by Aidan Quinn, back when he was dark and brooding. At the height of her rise to fame and in her first movie role, Madonna stars as Susan, the focus of Roberta’s obsessions. It was one of Susan’s several boho boyfriends that stole the Egyptian earrings that kicked off the whole mis-adventure. She hides out in New Jersey ostensibly to help Roberta’s husband track his missing wife and the plot just gets sillier from there. Yes, ...
