Madonna is in control here and that wasn't Jane's presumption. Madonna knows that Jane is envious and Jane refuses to be convinced, although she does realize that her intimidation towards Madonna is not working and Madonna is throwing it right back at her with a joker's smile. This interview is classic and demonstrates just how intelligent Madonna truly is.
I hate that she like rejects and looks down on her earliest years. I loved how she dressed and acted and NOW she talks about how embarrassed she is that she was ever that way...but that's why people loved her.
@DanceInTheDark711 agreed! I feel the same. I'm a good fan of her but I can't stand when she says 'what was I thinking with my hair' and so on. I remember during the American Life era she was getting annoying with it.
Gaga reminds me of Madonna...just they way she talks in interviews as well. And whats wrong with this interviewer...it's like shes slightly mocking Madonna.
This Madonna is very reminiscent of the Madonna of today - the way she talks and the tone in her voice. Even the way she looks in the face and the way she holds herself. It's just the hair that throws it off. The Madonna of 1989-1992 is almost unrecognizable today.
Yeah, Jane Pauley... Who it seems career is long gone 20 years later and Madonna is still going strong. She's not wearing a stupid shoulder pad suit and aquanet bangs, she likes what she likes, and she OWNS it!
what a fucking interview...honestly. The interviewer should b shot dead, She keeps on asking about that fucking dress. Diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeee!!!!
This was the time when Madonna started acting like a bitch during most interviews. And that annoying voice of hers... I like Madonna's music and live shows (especially the first live shows), but I don't like her as a person at all.
It seems to me Pauley was trying hard to get inside Madonna, but Madonna was good back then at keeping her guard up, Pauley starts with casual conversation to get her relaxed, but it doesn't work and so she keeps trying, that's why such talk about the dress for so long and Pauley getting frustrated. She even admits at the end that she knows her no better than she did when they first sat down. I think Jane was fascinated by her but couldn't get anything out of her.
This is a stupid interview. Were we really talking about a dress that she bought in a drift store for 9 min. COME on!!! Can we ask more interesting questions?
this lady seems so shocked by madonna in this interview like she was expecting a completely different person like a dumb naive blonde or somethin. lol madonna showed her!
this is one of the worst interviews i've ever seen. no wonder jane pauley was fired. over 5 minutes talking about a dress... you've got to be kidding me.
@spiderlegs1987 Many people considered her "slutty" at the time of this interview. You have to take the time period into account. In the early 1980s it was shocking to hear the word "Virgin" on the radio, for example. Today, that's nothing.
That's because people thought that Madonna was a ditz, that she wasn't supposed to be taken seriously. Look at the way people during this time seem to talk down on her.
@eliud82 She hadn't proven herself yet. This was 1987, and she didn't really become a major star until 1985. So, people still saw her as a flash-in-the-pan, thinking she'd disappear soon.
that interviewer asking about the dress what an idiot

Yeah what's with the interviewer and the lame questions. Madonna was probably saying later, "What the hell was that?"

If anything Pauley's attitude towards Madonna is indicative of the fact that the
journalist might have slept her way to the top. She's clearly annoyed by the then
28 yo Madonna's level of success....In the words of pud Whacker:
EAT IT
IDIOTES1982 1 year ago
My God
What a full-on witch that Pauley sure is
boring interviewer and jealous of Madonna's mega success at the age of 28
She didn't come from an elite family? All the more resons to applaud her and
congratulate her on her success but Jane seems to be mad at her for being
successfull.......like "I don't understand how this nothing standing before me
has achieved so much in such a short span of time....it pisses me off" kind of
undertone.....
