Madonna
| Biography |
The remarkable hyper ambitious, Material Girl who never stops re-inventing herself has sold tens of millions of CDs to adoring fans world wide, however her film career has consistently drawn scathing or laughable reviews from film critics, and her films have generally often only experienced tepid success at the box office. Born Madonna Louise Veronica Ciccone on August 1958 in Bay City, Michigan she moved to New York in the late 1970s and studied with renowned choreographer Alvin Ailey, joined up with the Patrick Hernandez Revue, formed a pop/dance band called "Breakfast Club" and then began working with then boyfriend Stephen Bray on recording several disco oriented songs. NY producer / DJ Mark Kamins passed her demo tapes onto Sire Records in early 1982......and the rest, as they say, is history. The 1980s was Madonna's boom decade, and she dominated the music charts with a succession of multi-million selling albums, plus her musical and fashion influence on young women was felt right around the globe. |
