Making records is not how it used to be! #stillwerking

I like pushing the envelope. But I don't like to do it just for the sake of doing it.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
I hope my child will be a good Catholic like me.

Filmmaking is such a collaboration. At a certain point, I suppose you do have to let go and trust the people you're working with.
Madonna Ciccone

Sick and perverted always appeals to me.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
This will be a revolution of inquiring further, of not worrying about winning other people's approval, of not wishing you were someone else but perfectly content to be who you are. Someone unique, and rare, and fearless. I want to start a revolution of love.
Madonna Ciccone

I have the same goal I've had ever since I was a girl: I want to rule the world.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
It amazes me when I talk to people in their early 20s and they've never read the classics, things we read as children. When you don't have knowledge and understanding, then fear rises in you.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
I can't stand when I walk into a room and everyone's not talking to each other and just on their phones.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
In everyday life I am quiet and reserved, not the housekeeper type but cool and relaxed. I don't get up in the morning wearing false eyelashes and I don't wear fancy underwear when I'm cooking popcorn. I'm a nice little ducky.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
I'm not claiming to appeal to the same people that Christina Aguilera or Britney Spears are going to appeal to. I'm not trying to. I'm doing what I want to do.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
I grew up in a high school where it was very conservative, and I felt like people disapproved of me, and I felt like an outsider.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
Who is my role model and how long can I keep this going? I just move around and do different things and come back to music, try making films and come back to music, write children's books and come back to music.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
I've gone from having a huge fan base to losing a huge fan base to having a kind of fluctuating fan base. I've always had a core of fans who've stuck by me but, depending on the kind of music I do, I end up appealing to certain groups of people and alienating others.

Let’s forget about time And dance our lives away

I feel that most gay men are so much more in touch with a certain kind of sensitivity that heterosexual men aren't allowed to be in touch with, their feminine side. To me they're whole human beings, more so than most of the straight men that I know.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
I feel like everybody needs to take a sabbatical and go to Russia and Africa and work in orphanages and really witness true suffering. And then you'll just feel ridiculous for ever complaining about anything. Everybody needs that kind of reality check.

Everything looks true written down. What you read in National Enquirer and News Of The World looks true written down.

I wanted to be famous, I wanted everybody to love me. I wanted to be a star. I worked really hard, and my dream came true.
