Another stunning promotional advert for “Like a Virgin”, this time coming from Australia!
Published in January 1985 and added to the “Like a Virgin” page
I was able to review the new documentary Madonna Move To The Music by EM Productions.
We have all seen a dozen or two documentaries on Madonna in the past decades, one more worth your time than the other. Move To The Music documents Madonna’s rise to stardom through file footage, press pictures, quotes, music video clips and interviews with music editors and journalists. A narrator tells Madonna’s story from her early days well up to the (still kind of) current Madame X era.
The “Like a Virgin” promotional campaign was massive and for collectors there’s a lot out there to hunt down.
As if there weren’t enough promotional adverts, let’s talk about the promotional posters and the variety in them! We have a total of 23 related (promotional) posters in our memorabilia section. They range from promotional posters from Japan, UK and the US to regular commercial posters.

That’s how you respond to a Karen.
In an Instagram post by Madonna where she advocates for gun control following multiple mass shootings across the United States, the 62-year-old pop star clapped back at a woman coincidentally named Karen.
“B***h I don’t have security or armed guards around me,” Madonna said in response to the comment claiming she had guns to protect her and her family. “Come see me and tell me to my face how not real the world is. I dare you.”
The comment quickly turned to racial issues regarding policing and the criminal justice system at large.
“The only criminals I see right now are the police who are paid to protect the people,” Madonna commented. “But the police are protected and the criminal justice system which is a joke because there is no justice if you are a person of color.”
Noticing the name of her troll, Madonna concluded her rant with, “Of course your name is Karen.”
Fans of the musician were elated to see Madonna’s response. One fan on Twitter wrote “Good job! The Queen of Pop a.k.a @Madonna.”
Even those who aren’t fans of the musical icon applauded Madonna’s response.
“At times I don’t like her, but @Madonna was on it,” the user tweeted.
It’s clear the negative political comments did not stop Madonna as the next day, she posted a three-minute CNN clip regarding the shooting of Daunte Wright in Minnesota.

Madonna: the Queen of Pop. Every tune, dance step and decision over four decades has shaped today’s contemporary musical landscape. Over a career that has lasted for decades, Madonna has ushered underground sounds and trends into the mainstream – she arrived at the dawn on the MTV music video era and utilised the medium to create a series of stylish, sexy clips that garnered her a reputation as a provocateur, whilst establishing the fledgling TV network as a hub for popular culture in the 1980s. Madonna is unstoppable, her impact on pop culture, undeniable, inspiring almost every other female act to come after her. Repeatedly re-inventing herself, she has changed the blueprint of how to be a successful woman in the music business in the process.
