This was the video that started it all, my lifelong love affair with Madonna. Every queen needs their diva and she’s been mine since that day in 1984:
I ran to the flea market to buy rubber bracelets and a belly-baring mesh tank top…not a flattering look for a chubby pasty-white boy
MTV introduced me to Madonna and I haven’t stopped watching her since. I can’t say the same for MTV. Do they even show music videos or have VJ’s anymore? I miss you Downtown Julie Brown.
This weekend is the MTV’s 43rd Video Music Awards and Madonna’s leading the pack in nominations and opening the show. She opened the very first VMA’s climbing down off a wedding cake, rolling around on the floor singing “Like A Virgin” and outraged many. She shocked them again in 2003 kissing Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera during a “Like A Virgin / Hollywood” medley. However, she’ll be hard pressed to top her 1990 performance of “Vogue” which is the most iconic performance in the history of the show.
I think Madonna made me gay…thanks gurl!
Madonna has always understood that music videos are an art form. Just like good porn, her videos are eye candy with a plot. Without further ado, here’s my Top 5 Madonna Music Videos of all time.
#5 Ghosttown: I think they should’ve ditched the kid and Cher would’ve made a perfect co-star (although Terrence Howard is a sight for sore eyes post apocalypse) because who else is going to be around at the end of the world?
#4 Papa Don’t Preach: A tale as old as time, Madonna’s cheating on sugar papa (Danny Aiello) with new baby (Alex McArthur the hot mechanic) but returns home to Danny when she realizes the bills aren’t getting paid otherwise.
#3 Deeper And Deeper: I also crave potassium after a night of pillow fights and objectifying men.
#2 Express Yourself: Makes my pussy wet too but triggers my self-diagnosed OCD because how will they ever get those grease stains out of satin.
#1 Bad Girl: The moral of the story is smoking, drinking or Christopher Walken will always be the death of you.
In my gay opinion, there are three things that make Madonna videos (and life in general) better: animals, hot guys and Debi Mazar.
