should congratulate digital spy on picking out such a terrible collection of low quality pictures. for an artist with so many iconic looks and photo's over the past 3 decades you'd have thought they'd have tried a bit harder

AS much as I love madonna I don't think she has the edge anymore and seeing the marilyn look from Give me all your lovin vid and the black and white bondage look in girls gone wild gives me major madonna de ja vu.
I just hope she realises when to call it a day rather than going on and on to the point where people forget how awesome she was and just see a tired performer who doesn't know when to quit.

WOW her music legacy is the stuff that most females today would die for.
