An undisputed chart-topper from the opening notes of her eponymous 1983 debut, pop-goddess Madonna never made any secret of her intention to achieve mega-stardom in the music industry. Born Mary Louise Veronica Ciccone, the Bay City, Michigan beauty would eventually prove not only one of the most popular vocalists of her time, but a true master in the fine art of self-promotion as well. Though the years Madonna has courted controversy and continually altered her public persona to remain relevant in the recording studio, on the big screen, and even on the printed page. For fans who have always wanted to find out just how a small girl from Michigan transformed herself into a virtual pop culture icon, this collection of vintage interview clips and news clips offers a comprehensive overview of Madonna's whirlwind career from "Lucky Star" to "Hung Up". ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
