* DatedHistory: When her song "Vogue" was released on March 20, 1990, more than half of the people on her list were still alive (Creator/GretaGarbo, Creator/MarleneDietrich, Joe [=DiMaggio=], Creator/MarlonBrando, Creator/GeneKelly, Creator/GingerRogers, Creator/LaurenBacall, Creator/KatharineHepburn, and Creator/LanaTurner). Garbo became the first to die, about a month after "Vogue" was released; and by the time the last person on the list died on August 12, 2014 (Bacall), you'll never listen to the song in the same way again, as the anthem for the lost glamour of Old Hollywood is now turned into a TearJerker.

* DeliberatelyMonochrome: The music video of "Vogue" was shot in black and white, to invoke MediaNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfHollywood.

** When the ''Rebel Heart'' demos leaked, Madonna called the whole incident "artistic rape" and "an act of terrorism." (She later deleted the post.)
*** She also for some reason smashed an iPhone.
** During the 'Sex Kitten' and 'Sexy' stages of her career this was {{Flanderized}} into AnythingThatMoves, usually by her detractors.
