Madonna: LOVE magazine

It’s here. The secret project between LOVE and Mert Alas titled LOVE 16.5. The special edition collectors issue ‘LOVE by Mert Alas’ supported by Marc Jacobs launches on 19th September during London Fashion Week. Without any hair, make up or styling, cover star Madonna, shot by Mert Alas, is seen sucking her thumb in bed, wearing a hooded sweatshirt by Palace. ‘Madonna 2:00AM by Mert Alas’ is a 10-page reportage that the photographer shot of Madonnna in the early hours at his Hampstead home. Our Editor-in-Chief Katie Grand says: “ In early 2016, the media was obsessing over the discord in Madonna’s relationship with her son Rocco. I was struck by how mean the press were about a woman simply going to work and wanting her son to be a part of it. I spoke to Mert about the possibility of doing a shoot with her, as he, Madonna and Rocco are all friends. I wasn’t sure it would ever happen, to be honest, but Mert said, ‘Let me ask M and Rocco.’ Much to my surprise, the morning after Mado

MADONNA INTERVIEW : WORLD OF POP (AUGUST 25 2000)

You seem to avoid the paparazzi far more these days. Is that because you’re being a protective mum? Madonna:  Yes. My daughter is too young to understand stardom. She doesn’t see the point of the press and she thinks the paparazzi are silly! I’ve only let one photographer take my daughter’s picture and that was for the article in Vanity Fair. The rest are all paparazzi pictures of her on the streets. Does fame become harder now that your family has grown? Madonna:  Yes, absolutely. I can’t go for a walk on the street with my children. I can’t do the things that other people do with their children. Where Lourdes goes to school is affected by my fame. I can’t make those decisions in the way that other people do. How much does being a mother affect your career decisions? Madonna:  Very much. I want to be at home, being a mom, as much as possible. Do you sing to your kids? Madonna:  Oh, yeah. But I won’t tell you what. I make up songs that are really silly and completely

Justifying Our Love: 25 Years Later, the Madonna Doc Still Delights - And Confounds

village  voice.   BY   MELISSA  ANDERSON EXPAND Outliving Michael Jackson and Prince, Madonna is the sole survivor  of the holy triad of pop superstars born in 1958. She turned fifty-eight last week; also celebrating a (milestone) birthday is Alek Keshishian's immensely pleasurable vérité backstager/concert doc  Madonna: Truth or Dare , now twenty-five years old. Reviewing the film in the May 14, 1991, issue of the  Voice , J. Hoberman praised  Truth or Dare  as "a remarkable portrait of a sacred monster in her prime." The description remains unassailable — and is now all the more poignant, considering Madonna's diminished stature today. Though she is still active in a variety of fields and endures as one of the most famous people on the planet, she has, of course, been eclipsed by others in the past quarter-century; Queen Bey has for several years worn the crown that once sat atop the head of Her Madgeness. Nor has Madonna, an artist in the decadent pha
