OMG PUD...I just posted some of the outtakes on my blog! I guess great minds think alike! (Me, You, M).
I totally remember seeing this mag on the newsstands and being mesmerised by the cover alone. The title 'White Heat' said it all. This was a good time being a M fan. With 'I'm Breathless', 'Vogue' and 'Blond Ambition' who can ask for anything more?!?
I'm confused about the hair chronology, she was brunette and she dyed her hair blonde for Dick Tracy, and after that she dyed dark again? I guess that's the period of her on the COSMOPOLITAN cover with dark hair am I right? and then she dyes it blonde again in this interview apparently, before the cover pictures I assume, and then stays blonde until the Oscars next year right? and then it's black hair again.
Mmm, I was over-awed, 14, on holiday in Spain when I found it on a news stand. Better than any Xmas present. I devoured it on the beach. So bold, so fuck you hot.
I adore the picture of her lying on the bar too. It's very Madonna but, at the same time doesn't look like her, if that makes sense. I stared at that image for hours when I got the magazine.
Thanks again for sharing with your archives. One more article I dreamt to read!

ReplyDelete"Madonna was so interesting and fun back then".
I think also we were younger and we haven't seen or read or known so many things like now we are.
