When you're 25, it's a little bit easier to be daring, especially if you are a pop star, because eccentric behavior is expected from you.
From Madonna Ciccone
My physical transformations - like changing my hair - are usually a reflection of what's inspiring me at the moment.
I want to give a child a life who wouldn't be given a life. I want a child that nobody else wants.
Stevie Wonder and Diana Ross and the Jackson 5, that's what I grew up on.
Because I was a dancer, I started going to auditions for musical theater, which forced me to sing.
I had decided that if I was going to be a singer, I had to earn it. I had to learn how to play an instrument.
I was named after my mother. And I guess when I started making records, Madonna Ciccone seemed too long and complicated, and I just got stuck with Madonna.
I've never really lived a conventional life, so I think it's quite foolish for me or anyone else to start thinking that I am going to start making conventional choices.
Where you record is very important. It can't be too nice, it can't be too expensive, it can't have a view to an ocean or a field.
There's always elements of danger in New York, but people are always out on the street. I don't feel scared there at all.
