If you watched the Grammy Awards last week and wondered for the zillionth time how you could get dance moves like Madonna’s, you’re in luck.
On March 2, Madonna’s Hard Candy Fitness will launch a 20-week pop-up class series called Dancers’ Access, at Broadway Dance Center in Midtown. The debut marks the first time her workouts will be available to New Yorkers.
Madge, whose fitness obsessions, workout habits, and trainers have been chronicled for years (from Barre3 to Tracy Anderson to yoga), launched Hard Candy Fitness in 2010 but the locations have exclusively been overseas, in Mexico, Russia, Australia, Italy, Germany, Chile, and Canada.
The twice-a-week classes at Broadway Dance will be taught by the “Hard Candy Fitness Sweat Crew,” who are described as the top trainers working with Madonna on a regular basis, including Craig Smith, Jessica Castro, Timothy Anderson, and Kendra Kemerley. (Turns outbooty-sculpting Addicted to Sweat trainer Nicole Winhoffer joined Madge’s long list of former trainers last June.) The company says that choreography in the classes will be “inspired by Madonna’s on-stage performances,” which you may or may not have been practicing in your bedroom since you were twelve.
“Based on Madonna’s love and passion for dance, we are excited to launch this program as a way for dance lovers of all skill levels to learn what inspires and keeps our global star fit and able to perform on such a high level,” says Craig Smith, who’s also Hard Candy’s creative director, in a press release.
New Yorkers who are dance cardio obsessed will likely be thrilled, but we’re still wondering if Madonna will bring her full fitness concept to the U.S. soon. Or could we at least get an in-class cameo? —Lisa Elaine Held

Madonna Started Filming The "Bedtime Story" Video on December 5 1994.

The inspiration behind the video. Hello everyone! This month’s music video to be analyzed is the for “Bedtime Story”, While this video is tricky for its various sources of inspiration, it’s one of her best, if not  the   best, and an underrated one by most fans. I am sure that, after reading all of this, you’ll find yourself more in love with the true artist Madonna really is. Madonna called upon “Rain” director Mark Romanek to do the music video for “Bedtime Story” after she saw what he had done with Nine Inch Nails’ “Closer”. As she always does, she listened to the song over and over again, trying to think of a concept for a video. The theme she held on to for this one was dreams, it’s meaning, concepts, imagery and works based on it. She’s a huge fan of surrealistic art, in which lots of paintings deal about dreaming, or allude to something unfathomable in real life. She held to that and brought that concept to Romanek, that really liked the idea and wanted to add ...

Rolling Stone - June 13, 1991 - Flesh and Fantasy - Big Time Girl Talk with Carrie Fisher

Madonna and I had met many times over the years, but we had never actually had a conversation. It took this interview to bring us together – she as icon, I as inquisitor of icon [after all, I have already distinguished myself as friend of icon, relative of icon and ex-wife of icon]. I had never done an interview before, and I don’t know that I will again. For me, this has all the makings of a waterloo. The first of the two sessions for this interview took place in the restaurant of the Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles. Madonna wore gold lame; I probably wore black. The last session took place in the offices of her manager, Freddy DeMann. Madonna wore a negligee; I probably wore black. I was late for that first meeting because a friend who had AIDS and who was staying with me had suddenly developed a fever. I called Madonna to say I was on my way. “You’re late,” she informed me. I explained about my friend. “Well, okay, that’s a good excuse,” she said. By the time of our fina...
