Ok; now I'm speaking. Alright? MADONNA wears the crown. She is untouched and unbothered by any of her so called competitors. In more ways than one she is in A League of [Her} Own. As a young girl She worked and charmed and navigated her way to the very tip-top of American pop culture. Because unlike the other names being mentioned here, Madonna had the striking good looks, the discipline a bite-the-coin real energy that captivated the whole world. From Her beginning She drew the attention of Everybody like nobody else could. People were gagged by Madonna. Starstruck, spellbound. She didn't come from a family of child performers or have a mommy who was in 'the business' and She didn't have to marry the boss of a record company either. She united people of all races and backgrounds and was a protector of many. She sang and danced and lit the world on fire. Period. I'm sorry you're pressed about the fact that it wasn't your fave, but it wasn't. It was Madonna. FOR DECADES. Listen to Her interviews and the things She was saying. The depth and the realness. She was fearless. There will never be another person like her. She doesn't just create art, She backs it up. She talks the talk and walks the walk and we all have her to thank for having the guts to be such a daring person and what She brought to this world and to our lives. Even though you try to discredit her, She fought for you too, and won. Bow-the-f*ck-down.
