Madonna Extreme

Madonna had a rough go of it in 1993. After a decade’s worth of pop dominance and tantalizing the country with her sexuality and gender/religious politics, it was time for the backlash, and what better occasion for it than with a coffee-table book about sex and an album called  Erotica  hitting the marketplace?  Erotica  ended up being Madonna’s first album that didn’t hit #1 since her debut, and  Sex  became an international punchline. America has always been weird about its relationship with sex in pop culture, and Madonna bore the brunt of that in 1993, and I don’t want to pile on when I think she’s gotten too much shit for this period in her career anyway. All that said: Madonna really showed her ass on  Saturday Night Live  in January of ’93, it just had nothing to do with sex (or  Sex ). Things started so well! She was phenomenal in the cold-open sketch about Bill Clinton’s inauguration, appearin...

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 6—  Madonna has filed for divorce to end her turbulent three-year marriage to the actor Sean Penn, a spokesman for her record label said. Bob Merlis of Warner Brothers records did not specify when the actress and singer had filed for the divorce, but said he assumed the papers had been filed in Los Angeles. ''It is true,'' said John West, a spokesman for Mr. Penn. ''Sean and Madonna are separated. They plan to divorce and it's amicable.'' The announcement follows a nullified divorce filing in late 1987 and several well-publicized fights involving Mr. Penn, one of which led to a 60-day prison term. Divorce rumors have been swirling around the couple in recent months. Madonna rose to fame with her hits ''Borderline,'' ''Like a Virgin'' and ''Material Girl.'' She also acted in the movie ''Desperately Seeking Susan'' and in David Mamet's Broadway play ...

One day – possibly because A Flock Of Seagulls weren’t available – Neil decided to interview a new singer called Madonna. At that time she wasn’t particularly famous either; she’d had a couple of singles out, but so far only her song “Holiday” had been much of a success. All the same Neil reckoned she was well worth a piece in the new magazine. Now, of course, they’re both fans of each other (the other day Neil even dropped along to have a chat with her at her birthday party) but at the time of the interview Neil didn’t know her at all. He set off to meet her in a New York cafe, tape recorder in hand, and then spent the next hour drinking cappucinos and listening ...
