The Madonna Star is Clue #14!

 Love this little Madonna Star!



In 2005, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inducted Madonna.  Their introduction stated, “The record-setting, line-crossing, sexuality-flaunting, ever-evolving Material Girl.  Madonna is an icon. With her larger than life persona and penchant for provocation, she needs no introduction.” 

Madonna Louise Ciccone is an American singer, songwriter, and actress. Dubbed the "Queen of Pop", Madonna has been widely recognized for her continual reinvention and versatility in music production, songwriting, and visual presentation.  Madonna rose to solo stardom with her debut studio album, Madonna (1983).  She followed it with a series of successful albums, including all-time bestsellers “Like a Virgin” (1984), “True Blue” (1986) and “The Immaculate Collection” (1990), as well as Grammy Award winners “Ray of Light” (1998) and “Confessions on a Dance Floor” (2005).  Madonna has amassed many chart-topping singles throughout her career, including "Like a Virgin", "La Isla Bonita", "Like a Prayer", "Vogue", "Take a Bow", "Frozen", "Music", "Hung Up", and "4 Minutes".

With sales of over 300 million records worldwide, Madonna is the best-selling female recording artist of all time.  She is the most successful solo artist in the history of the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart and has achieved the most number-one singles by a woman in Australia, Canada, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom.  With a revenue of over US $1.5 billion from concert tickets, she remains the highest-grossing female touring artist worldwide.  Forbes named Madonna the annual top-earning female musician a record 11 times across four decades (1980s–2010s).

I had the good fortune to see Madonna on her 1990’s Blond Ambition tour, in which she wore her iconic Jean Paul Gaultier Cone Bra.  Using the pink conical bra as my inspiration, I designed the Madonna Star to have Corner Beams in the Corners.    

My fabric selection:

Moda's Eufloria

We re-introduced the Corner Beam into the Series.  So tada!

Be careful when laying out your A and B Units.
