Publisher's Synopsis
In a career spanning three decades, Madonna has produced a record-breaking stream of hit singles and albums, starred in (and directed) films, and staged some of the highest-grossing concert tours of all time. But she is more than just a pop star and actress. she is an icon of our times, and one who has continued to reinvent both herself and the very nature of celebrity ever since she first appeared in 1983.
Madonnais a richly illustrated, chronological guide to every album, every tour, every film, and more. It covers the key collaborators, the countless controversies, the ever-changing fashions, and everything in between. Everything about this book, from its giant size to its velvety, touchy-feely cover, to its larger than life contents fits its megastar subject. It includes pull-out timelines for each phase of Madonna's career - from "Vogue" to "Ray of Light", "The Girlie Show" to 'the Sticky & Sweet Tour', 'the Sex' book to 'The English Roses' - it's all here.
