  It is hard to believe what she has done and achieved since this interview.<br>The hardest working woman in show business, the most iconic second wave feminist, the best selling female artist of all time, the best selling touring artists of all time, Grammy, Golden Globe, most legendary pop artist in the world, one of the biggest private art collectors in the world, reinvent of fame and celebrity, humanitarian and she literally saved lives during the horrific AIDS crisis....and so many unforgettable artistic collaborations along the way. David Fincher, Herb Ritts, Steven Meisel, Jean Paul Gaultier, Fabien Baron, Sondheim... too many to mention! <br>Just like in sunset Boulevard: &quot;She is Big, it&apos;s pop music &nbsp;that got small&quot;<br>Her most iconic contemporaries are all dead: Whitney, Michael, George and Prince. She has no one to compete or contrast against!<br>What an amazing life she has lived. What a ride! <br>Truly one of the most remarkable personalities and stories of modern Time.<br>I will be very sad when she leaves.

  I remember as a little girl seeing her say she wanted to rule the world - up to that point I had never seen a woman so brazenly confident and sure of herself. You can see in her eyes that she knew she was going to do it. I&apos;ve aspired to have Madonna confidence and I&apos;ve love her since!

  I could never understand why people considered her average looking when she was young . She was fantastic looking . I actually discovered Madonna herself considered herself average looking . I am shocked by that . I was never even a fan of her music , but she was beautiful.

  She&apos;s always been so articulate and eloquent. And not a trace of vocal fry

  Behind makeup and lights, hair and surgery - all of which I find perfectly acceptable for anyone, as long as they feel better with themselves - I can still see that spark, that Madonna from back when. <br>That&apos;s why she&apos;s still so relevant more than 40 years later. She&apos;s not just music, she&apos;s a work of art, who&apos;s influenced and shaped the world of pop, in every field.<br>So grateful my lifespan has crossed the development of this woman&apos;s career. ❤

  By Nov 1984, she was the most famous woman in the world. Like A Virgin came out and hit big. She was in the middle of making desperately seeking susan. People said at the start of production she wasn&apos;t well known but by the end of production she needed a body guard and was very famous.
