Notice how Arsenio told Madonna to teach him how to Vogue and she goes and answers "i have dancers that could teach you how to Vogue. They taught me and they will be in my show." This is how you use something you didn't create without appropriating it. Always giving credit to the ones who did it and bringing them to your own shows. Basically giving your platform to those people instead of learning it and doing it yourself like it was your creation. She was so ahead of her time and still is.
Have to say i dont think shes ahead of her time anymore, id say shes just old now. She goes on too extra now trying to stay relevant, its abit corny. Look shes been great back in the day and edgy etc
@@janetcarlson31 Be a little more grateful. She used that trashy fame to fight for worldwide equality for women in the home and in the workplace. She also used that fame to fight the US government when they were being willfully ignorant about the AIDS crisis.
Janet Carlson so true, but looking down onto her dark covertly narcissistic character just should trigger sympathy and not hate. When you got good ears, it is not hard to notice how desperately, loud and ugly she cries out for sympathy. And she made dollars with it, but at least she has not reached out for presidency yet.
@@janetcarlson31 please. She was ahead of trends for most of her life. She was a star from the beginning. That takes talent when you have an ok voice. What have you ever done that comes close?
Madonna at the absolute height of her career: Million $ budgeted music videos, the attention of the entire world, unprecedented record sales. Not only was this a very breathtaking moment in her life, but for the music business in general. With dwindling record sales and an increasingly fragmented public, a doubt there will ever be another monolithic figure in entertainment the way Madonna & Michael Jackson were. But who knows.
Yeah, Madonna and MJ were the King and Queen in the '80s into the '90s. I remember when they attended the 1991 Academy Awards together., That caused a stir because here you have the two biggest stars in the world together on the red carpet. That would be like Marilyn Monroe and Elvis Presley as each other's dates. It was surreal.
Unless you were either born or had some semblance of consciousness at the time in 1990, you haven't a clue how amazingly ahead of its time Madonna's appearance was on this show. This was Madonna at her world-domination peak. She was the only woman at that time who was able to sell out stadium shows. And no other woman at the time have ever appeared on a mainstream talkshow and be as bold as she was. And the Blonde Ambition Tour was huge! I went to that one-night show at the Sports Arena (still have the ticket stub), with Technotronic opening (she had Beastie Boys in '85---how cool and hip is that?!), and the place was on fire! And as far as her look, clearly she just finished her movie so she's still more or less looking like her character. And lastly, the continuing comparisons to that Gaga girl, it's "tired." Enough already.
Why do people go on repeating the same rhetoric about Madonna on these videos? I'm sure even Helen Keller in her grave knows Madonna was highly successful. Doesn't need to be repeated 1,000,000,000 times.
+marishana meyer Never on Madonna's level. In 1989, Madonna won the MTV Artist of the Decade 1980's award By 1990, Vogue, Dick Tracey, the Blond Ambition Tour & the VMA's 1990 put Madonna as a global cultural icon. Madonna was the biggest music star
She's such a vixen. I love that she's brazen, and the fact that she doesn't care what people say or think. When she says "......If you've got it, flaunt it.....". I was screaming and squealing when she said that.
I really do think you had to be alive in the 80’s and 90’s phase of Madonna to really understand and appreciate her. She was so ahead of her time and so unapologetically brazen. It was a different time.
When l was a child in the 80's and a teenager in the 90's and l was always in awe of her skin, her face ( especially the eyes) and how fit she always was, hard to let go of that as you age I'd imagine, her daughter has her eyes.
And now it's in wanton excess, surpassing her in unsurprising ways. She mightve been cutting edge but now it's played out. Every girl with a FB and Twitters got an Onlyfans and a tiktok ironically covering Madonna and many of the Nikki Minaj clone songs whilst being so brazen. The legacy has become who can out brazen the other with as little talent as possible and max shock-factor and borderline x-rated material.
People take shots at Madonna's age, people should put their hate towards her to one side and praise the fact she is 56 years of age and still going strong in an industry that mainly focuses on younger pop girls. 30+ years in the game, still selling albums, still selling out arenas & still adored by millions is something whether you love or hate her should admire about her.
That... but what really shaped her personality and she has said this a few time, is growing up in a big family. She had 9 siblings and she had to grab and take versus waiting for things or else it wouldn't happen.
Many singers without a beautiful voice can have a long career, we have plenty of them. It is not always the voice. Personality, good stage performance can do the trick.
@TheBarbraStreisand1, no sweetie, good music sells, i never went to buy Madonna's music cause i saw her tits. I went to buy her music cause its amazing
WOW....listen to that crowd at the very beginning...they wont stop cheering...this was Madonna at the peak of popularity...the world went crazy for her
Madonna was at her prime back in 1990 and she was huge in the music industry and this was right after she did Dick Tracy and then she was on Her Blonde Ambiton World Tour and I saw her in concert when I was 12 and she killed it **** Madonna will always be the queen of pop and she was popular in the 80s 90s 2000's and now she just finished her celebration world tour and she is 65 and still going on strong.. its unbelievable. She broke every record and pushed boundairies for other artists. Madonna was ahead of her time. I wonder if she will do another album. I have all of her music..
Well she was so under fire by the media throughout het whole era. She turned the hate and controversy into her own art form. She really knows how to turn everything upside down. PS. She did got under a lot of fire when Bitch, I’m Madonna came out from social media. Madonna doesn’t care
seriously tho real singing Artists dont have to do all that to remain popular and relevant to be honest it was just something she capitalized on thats all because of who she was and what roles she was playing to at the time in Hollywood
Madonna used controversy to make society more open-minded, and it worked in some ways. Society ain't the same as it was in 1990 for women, gays etc, and she was one of the people that helped a lot for this to happen. Her religious controversies too. Now no one is that much shocked for someone's beliefs.
Thats not true she never did the show again. Arsenio was mad as hell after the show. Jet magazine had reported he cussed her out and yelled out who the hell does she think she is to tell me my hair style is tired.
@Blondie dag She got defensive because he was asking VERY personal questions about her relationship with Warren Beatty. If he doesn't like when guests fire back and play the same game, maybe he shouldn't have been so invasive with his questioning.
I swear I miss artist like Madonna and Michael Jackson. They were just so fascinating and trendsetting and had that extra special quality about them. Most of today's artist are so bland and uncreative and unexciting that it's a real shame.
@divina6 let me just answered this.. As a journalist it's my job to dig and victims that said under oath that the abuse started when the whole family was in vacation in grand canyon (now proven with the leak testimony of W.R) that he went with them and the other one with the detail abuse in a train station that wasn't built.. I'll wait. Leaving neverland ommited a lot of contradictions and a lot of information (why robson shop for a book deal and when it didn't work, he went for the lawsuit. The other oneremember he was abuse when he was Robson on TV. They have the same lawyer, met before leaving neverland etc . Etc (all court document)..etc.. Plus they lied in their lawsuit and the judge acknowledged it (again all public).. Victims don't have to lie to prove their point..
You were born in ‘81 and claim u grew up with M? Really!! I was born in 1970 and I experienced the Madonna live, before and after she became a STAR ⭐️!! You don’t even know what you’re talking about, idiot!!
I watched this live when I was 15. My parents would have had a heart attack if they knew. She is so beautiful, salacious, and smart. And Arsenio is great here. I still love it just as much as then. :)
This is the TV interview every talk show at time fought for. It is really one of the finest TV moments of that time if not the whole decade. And by the way, her classic "Vogue' video was directed by none other than David Fincher. To this day,that video is simpy brill!!!
They were going at each other in a joking way with funny comebacks back and forth..that was so natural and cool compared to nowadays when people take things way to seriously..they entertained us just by being natural and not worried about any backlash for just jokes..the 90s miss ya
I really miss the 80's, and the 90's. We were so beautiful back then. We had soul, we laughed like we meant it, because we meant it. the new generation is like zombies, no expressions. MTV was the best, and Artists valued their fans..they talked to fans..now everything has high security. I would so relive the 80's/90's
It's great to see someone playing along with Madonna's antics for once! Usually her interviews feel so one-sided, she's left hanging with her jokes. Nice that you can see Arsenio getting a little flustered, but still having a good time haha!
That was very entertaining, with them roasting each other, but all good fun. Madonna never really shy’s away from personal questions, and we got to love that about her.
@@freddie626 Me. 42 in 9 days. Still enjoying the hell out of myself.....just hard to imagine the time frame. Someone says 10 years ago, and I constantly think 90's lmfao
Good old Madonna... This takes me back from where I was in my early 20s.. I LOVED The Arsenio Hall Show. I didn´t have my own TV back then, so I watched it with one of my very best friends, whom I still have a great contact with! :-) I came out a year later as a gay girl to my friend, we still had lots of fun talking about Madonna... And a lot of OTHER stuff!! I sure supported her during those 90s years, when she made those statements about gay folks and gave money to the aids cause. Which she still does. :-)
i know everything is so rehearsed and pc nowadays that its sickening. heck they even purposely try to do corny skits and stuff just to go viral on here like jimmy fallon's show SMH
"1990" -Wow, I'd never thought in a million years that it would just become just another memory. It seems just like yesterday that Miss Madonna was parading around in that ponytail, with Blond Ambition all the rage, And she was mostly on every magazine cover all over the world.
She was seen as so charming and flirty and beautiful back then - now people look at her so differently just because she's older, specially with this thing about her kissing Drake, saying he was disgusted. Its a shame, shows the sexism in society.
+Perry Cooke well she does seem like a smoker and that ages a person twice as fast... also giving bad breathe so yeah... unfortunately not even fame and fortune can cover that
+Perry Cooke Why is it always sexism? There are plenty of things that artists like, say, Prince (who I love) did back in the day that would - and should - raise eyebrows if they were replicated today. Think there's something to be said for being age-appropriate.
+Misaiah Wilson She isn't old and she is the bestselling female artist ever, so " her music career was mediocre at best " isn't quite it. And she's 57 and the mother of children and teens. Funny someone your age is so old.
@catscats143 it means free publicity and influence at a time when there was no internet or social media. It was smart. Which is cheaper? studio time, album release, tour prep and planning, PR and advertising or shaving your head and weilding an umbrella at a car with a pack of cigarettes in your hand and getting worldwide coverage for free. (Brittney Spears child entertainment robot).What's cheaper and more advantageous? building an industry or saying you're going to run for president and receive free worldwide coverage on CNN? (D. TRUMP child robot trained to destroy and decimate enemies by father's lawyer Roy Cohen)
The words of a SMART business woman in the industry. She’s a marketeur and a provocateur. One of the best women in the business and even Cher can back me up on that one. Despite not even caring for her at all.
I was 8 years old when Dick Tracy came out. My older sister got me the VHS when it was available and you know you had to wait years for a movie to come out on VHS after it was in the theaters. I held onto that tape for many years. I was mesmerized by Madonna. Loved her performance in Dick Tracy. I also loved the comic in the Sunday Daily Newspaper…
Madonna was at her very peak in 1990-1991. At that point Madonna and Michael Jackson were the biggest stars in the World. No other celebrity was even close to them.
Oh snap at 8:40, the band is playing Bobby Brown’s “Rock Withcha”!!!! I LOVE that song. Regardless of what many people may think of Bobby Brown today, he was a legitimate star in the 90’s!!! And, as far as Ms. Madonna is concerned...I think she’s beautiful here and I love her teeth! It’s important to embrace EVERYTHING that God gifts us with! Clearly, her teeth/smile NEVER hurt her career! This woman knows her show business!!!
Haaaa all these haters! The rags to riches statement is true ~ she's made it; she's entitled to flaunt everything she's got. Madonna is a babe and a legend and redefines what being in one's prime means - because she just always is that.
She is a damn good person, talented, driven, works hard, she does so much, a normal person could not even absorb all she does, in fitness alone, poparotzzi can't even keep up with her jogging in the morning
It's so sad. When she was younger and more "beautiful" to the world that the same sort of interview that she gave then and the same sort of interview she gives now gets a totally different reaction based on her age. Now that she's older what seemed to be cute and sexy then is now deemed "desperate".
One thing is true about Madonna. She is super comfortable when she knows she is (be)loved. When she doesn't feel loved enough she gets very nervous and desperated. She doesn't know how to deal with unpopularity. And all that reflect in her music, interviews and even in the concerts.
I know I was really young at the time but I remember Madonna opening the show/curtain goes up...it's... Madonna! Anybody else remember that part that is not here (in full)...
She may not be the best singer or dancer but I gotta give her props, her determination to get to the top was admirable...I read one her books and she almost threw the towel in, in her pursuit for fame/success.....but she kept on going. Shes a very driven and ambitious person.
she was the best dancer, actually, until she was like 50, have you seen any of her tours up untill Confessions? I'll admit her dance moves started to look more.. careful after that, but still she rules the stage.
I remember this interview.....I was a freshman in highschool.....I absolutely obsessed with this brilliant lady.....it's 2019 I'm still in love.......she's one amazing human being.
Okay. 99% of those who've seen this miss the last 10-15 seconds of this clip. It features a then unknown and shirtless Brad Pitt in a Pringles commercial. Priceless!
This is the first time I have seen a clip from Arsenio's 90's show and I definitely remember seeing this clip. I used to have so many VHS of Arsenio guests including Madonna. I wish I saved them but now all the great interviews are on RUclips. I remember when Madonna first hit the scene in 1984. That first album was always my favorite.
She always knows how to gain attention and she always makes the interviewer uncomfortable. She knows how to play, provoke and have fun. C'mon it was 1990 and she was at her best: "Like a Prayer" was a huge success, "Vogue" was the new smash hit, the tour was about to begin, she got the movie, the album and Beatty. She knew she became a superstar and yeah, she was full of herself.
She also did an album in 1992 Erotica and she came out with a book called Sex. It was huge back in 1992 and now its 2022 its been 30 yrs since that happened. Madonna is the Queen Of Pop and she wanted to rule the world and she did. She started back in 1979-2022. That's alot of years to hold yourself high. I want Madonna to do an album with Kenrick Lamar she mentioned she would like to work with him***
Repartee is what they shared. Worked out too. My favorite movies by her remain Desperately Seeking Susan and A League of Their Own. (I know she didn't have many scenes in it but when she was onscreen she outshined even Gina Davis IMO, something not easily done given Gina's own presence and beauty)
far from circus clown...here we have one of the most if not the most iconic female artists of our time. this was the early 1990s .madonna looks great in that chanel suit. ..ever reinventing herself ...this was and always will be one of the most humerous interviews that M has done.....
I remember watching this and thinking that in a few days I will be seeing her at the Sports Arena! She will be the most renounce female artist the world has seen.
With all her outward unexpected , sometimes brazen sexuality at that Time, not these timeslol, She at the same time had a sweet adorableness and an undertone of class , and was still charming and ladylike which to me made her genius, fascinating as well as addictive! I had seen artists come close to this energy but never matched! It was and is only one Maddona, her personality was magnetically phenomenal! Love Her for that!!!!
One thing posters fail to realize--unless you saw the actual on-air telecast---was that she was still in her Breathless Mahoney look here as she hasn't yet completed the Dick Tracy film. She was also in promotional mode as 1) she's about to launch her soon to be ultra-successful Blonde Ambition Tour and 2) about to release a tie-in with her movie. And of course everything else that came after that was monumental: the high grossing tour, the b.o. success of Dick Tracy, the amazing video for "Vogue" the Truth or Dare documentary, and so on.
Actually, she was in the midst of her Blond Ambition Tour when she appeared on Arsenio. She had already completed the Asian portion of the tour and was embarking now on the U.S. leg. What people don't realize; is a lot of movies are in post production right up to the moment they are to be released. This is why the footage looked a bit rough. Though, she had finished her part in the movie the year before in 1989. In fact, much of the principle filming was completed in May of 1989 with the exception of some call backs in the summer of '89. That all said, she spent much of early '90 finishing up her I'm Breathless album, filming Vogue and tour rehearsals. You are right. She was in promotional mode. She was contracted to promote Dick Tracy, so she appeared where the demographics suited her most (the young hip Arsenio Show). But yes, she was at the height of her career by this point. The roller coaster ride of her career was soon to come, even though she still made huge impacts for years to come.
You're absolutely correct! What I meant was, yes, she was about to launch the U.S. leg for which I attended the L.A. Sports Arena stop with Technotronic as her opening act. 1990s was a huge year and looking back now she was barely scratching was was to be another decade of greatness.
Her being called edgy for dressing sexy and singing about sex is something female entertainers today are completely unaware of. Madonna paved the way for all females in the music industry and beyond. She empowered a generation of young women and it is her shoulders they are all standing on. Every female entertainer today has her to thank for empowering women in the music industry. And OMG his responses about her breast and Latoyas were so sexist and done in a away to try and knock her down!! Wow, I grew up in the 70 and 80's and had forgotten how rampant sexism was. It was acceptable for men to demean women, in just the way Arsenio does in this interview. I am glad times have changed but we have much work to do still.
"FULL" version...???? Where's the AWESOME intro where she walks thru the crowd and "The Posse, is tearing it UP!!! Probably one of the greatest intros he's EVER had for his show!
Vogue in 1990 was the peak of her superstardom, and she was a superstar from 1983. Nothing comes close except Elvis, Beatlemania, Thriller, and Purple Rain.
Am I the only one that has notice that she is wearing a long golden chain with a Dollar bill to it, the same she wears back for her 1992 appearance on the Arsenio Hall show with Rosie.
The one and only Queen of Pop!!!!!! Her Madgesty!!!!! After 30 years no one can beat her, no one!!!! she's the most successful female recording artist ever!!!!! LONG LIVE THE QUEEN!!!
shes awesome and fucking hilarious. she does her job and does it well. haters are people who never achieved any goals or dreams for themselves. losers.
Madonna's I.Q. is approximately 160, or more. Technically, she is a genius. All the negative comments, and opinions about her are the result of green envy, and insane jealousy...... period. You wish you had her body, her looks, her innate talent, And, last but not least, her money and business acumen. Haters go away. Men in the entertainment business do what she's being accused of all the time (promiscuity). These men act like pigs..... The very biggest of dogs. Because she's a woman and acts like the sexual being she is, all the stiffs are having a problem with it? Piffle.
Anybody notice after the interview was over at ( 29:49 ) - BRAD PITT in Pringles commercial ( in grey shorts ) One year before he appeared in, " Thelma & Louise !"😊😮😃🤗🤪🤪😂
Yes, I think this is the time in her career when she really did love the attention, the controversy, and the intense media/public interest in her at the time.

Madonna has turned creating controversy into an art form its fantastic.
seriously tho real singing Artists dont have to do all that to remain popular and relevant to be honest it was just something she capitalized on thats all because of who she was and what roles she was playing to at the time in Hollywood
@@marih_2017 She had tons of #1 singles. The music comes first but to become a star, you have to make people fascinated with you and she did that.
Madonna used controversy to make society more open-minded, and it worked in some ways. Society ain't the same as it was in 1990 for women, gays etc, and she was one of the people that helped a lot for this to happen. Her religious controversies too. Now no one is that much shocked for someone's beliefs.
More like a nightmare now, 😂
Y’all act like she’s legendary. I’m sorry, I don’t see it.
People take this too seriously. Arsenio and Madonna both loved riffing each other.
Thats not true she never did the show again. Arsenio was mad as hell after the show. Jet magazine had reported he cussed her out and yelled out who the hell does she think she is to tell me my hair style is tired.
what are you on about? she went on his show again 2 years later
urbanflavorz she went on his show two years later with Rosie O’Donnell.
urbanflavorz what?
@Blondie dag She got defensive because he was asking VERY personal questions about her relationship with Warren Beatty. If he doesn't like when guests fire back and play the same game, maybe he shouldn't have been so invasive with his questioning.
I swear I miss artist like Madonna and Michael Jackson. They were just so fascinating and trendsetting and had that extra special quality about them. Most of today's artist are so bland and uncreative and unexciting that it's a real shame.
ShonColle what you on about! Madonna has never changed she’s still the same!
I miss Michael Jackson, but certainly not Madonna! She's still alive and kicking!!!!
Don't forget Prince!!!!
@divina6 let me just answered this.. As a journalist it's my job to dig and victims that said under oath that the abuse started when the whole family was in vacation in grand canyon (now proven with the leak testimony of W.R) that he went with them and the other one with the detail abuse in a train station that wasn't built.. I'll wait. Leaving neverland ommited a lot of contradictions and a lot of information (why robson shop for a book deal and when it didn't work, he went for the lawsuit. The other oneremember he was abuse when he was Robson on TV. They have the same lawyer, met before leaving neverland etc . Etc (all court document)..etc.. Plus they lied in their lawsuit and the judge acknowledged it (again all public).. Victims don't have to lie to prove their point..
chi tai she has great music but she’s no where near as trendsetting and influential as they are
I was born in 1981 so I grew up with Madonna, I know how big and awesome she is. I get the feeling she would make a true friend.
You were born in ‘81 and claim u grew up with M? Really!!
I was born in 1970 and I experienced the Madonna live, before and after she became a STAR ⭐️!!
You don’t even know what you’re talking about, idiot!!
Not from what I hear.
1981ers Are The Best!!
I watched this live when I was 15. My parents would have had a heart attack if they knew. She is so beautiful, salacious, and smart. And Arsenio is great here. I still love it just as much as then. :)
This is the TV interview every talk show at time fought for. It is really one of the finest TV moments of that time if not the whole decade.
And by the way, her classic "Vogue' video was directed by none other than David Fincher. To this day,that video is simpy brill!!!
Arsenio during his height had the biggest figures in culture whether sports, music, politics, movies,etc
Only for 2 years from 89-90 after that it was becoming stale as fuck and Oprah took over the talk show for 2 decades.
*6:04** - **6:06* "Breastology is a science that I study." - Arsenio Hall (1990)
Arsenio was one of the few who could give it right back to Madonna. This banter is classic! long live the queen :)
They were going at each other in a joking way with funny comebacks back and forth..that was so natural and cool compared to nowadays when people take things way to seriously..they entertained us just by being natural and not worried about any backlash for just jokes..the 90s miss ya
This was way before internet obviously there was no way to see this stuff online
@@hsd287that has nothing to do with anything, people still saw it on tv lol
Madonna in the 90's. At the peak of her career. Enjoy the moment.
Personally, I think Arsenio Hall was an awesome talk show host despite criticism from some people.
I really miss the 80's, and the 90's. We were so beautiful back then. We had soul, we laughed like we meant it, because we meant it. the new generation is like zombies, no expressions. MTV was the best, and Artists valued their fans..they talked to fans..now everything has high security. I would so relive the 80's/90's
U should accept that everything changes with time
no expressions, thats botox lol
She was so funny, bold and witty. It’s very refreshing to see her like this. This was her best ever.
It's great to see someone playing along with Madonna's antics for once! Usually her interviews feel so one-sided, she's left hanging with her jokes. Nice that you can see Arsenio getting a little flustered, but still having a good time haha!
You can tell he did really enjoy her company and they got along really well.
The conversation felt natural and not forced
She was really fun and mischievous then.
That was very entertaining, with them roasting each other, but all good fun. Madonna never really shy’s away from personal questions, and we got to love that about her.
People forget how big the Arsenio Hall Show was. I remember this interview making the TV news in Portugal!
Madonna's elegance in this interview is amazing! Madonna change her looks many many times during her 32 years career and before Gaga appears in 2008.

Good old Madonna... This takes me back from where I was in my early 20s.. I LOVED The Arsenio Hall Show. I didn´t have my own TV back then, so I watched it with one of my very best friends, whom I still have a great contact with! :-) I came out a year later as a gay girl to my friend, we still had lots of fun talking about Madonna... And a lot of OTHER stuff!! I sure supported her during those 90s years, when she made those statements about gay folks and gave money to the aids cause. Which she still does. :-)
Love the banter they had on talk shows back then, I swear they never have that now!
i know everything is so rehearsed and pc nowadays that its sickening. heck they even purposely try to do corny skits and stuff just to go viral on here like jimmy fallon's show SMH
noemistephanie93 sometimes I forget that Fallon used to be funny on SNL. I know he’s making more money now, but come on man.
I never get tired of this interview! She was so much fun back then! I still luv her! I became a fan 4 years after this interview 💕
"1990" -Wow, I'd never thought in a million years that it would just become just another memory. It seems just like yesterday that Miss Madonna was parading around in that ponytail, with Blond Ambition all the rage, And she was mostly on every magazine cover all over the world.

Madonna once said, "I don't care what they say about me just as long as they're talking about me." Wise words,
What does it mean ?
@catscats143 it means free publicity and influence at a time when there was no internet or social media. It was smart. Which is cheaper? studio time, album release, tour prep and planning, PR and advertising or shaving your head and weilding an umbrella at a car with a pack of cigarettes in your hand and getting worldwide coverage for free. (Brittney Spears child entertainment robot).What's cheaper and more advantageous? building an industry or saying you're going to run for president and receive free worldwide coverage on CNN? (D.

I was 8 years old when Dick Tracy came out. My older sister got me the VHS when it was available and you know you had to wait years for a movie to come out on VHS after it was in the theaters. I held onto that tape for many years. I was mesmerized by Madonna. Loved her performance in Dick Tracy. I also loved the comic in the Sunday Daily Newspaper…
Madonna was and still is awesome!
Before Internet there was a woman that not need it!!! Madonna as charming and beautiful as she can be!!! 👑😍😘👏👌👍🙌😉
Javier Aranda sex appeal too.
I missed "controversial" Madonna for SO LONG. She toned it down a lot after she had Lourdes. Now that she put out God Control.....SHEEEE'S BAAACCK!
She's so great in this interview. She's honest 100% with herself first on every question.
Everybody loved Madonna back in the day and she's so beautiful.😍😍👏👏
Zerrika Barnes No, she was never loved by everyone. No legitimate artist is. Conservatives hated her from day one.
Madonna was at her very peak in 1990-1991. At that point Madonna and Michael Jackson were the biggest stars in the World. No other celebrity was even close to them.
PDC1987 Nope. Maybe some old preachers somewhere. But, her music was universally enjoyed by most young people in the 80s and 90s.
Oh snap at 8:40, the band is playing Bobby Brown’s “Rock Withcha”!!!! I LOVE that song. Regardless of what many people may think of Bobby Brown today, he was a legitimate star in the 90’s!!! And, as far as Ms. Madonna is concerned...I think she’s beautiful here and I love her teeth! It’s important to embrace EVERYTHING that God gifts us with! Clearly, her teeth/smile NEVER hurt her career! This woman knows her show business!!!

Haaaa all these haters! The rags to riches statement is true ~ she's made it; she's entitled to flaunt everything she's got. Madonna is a babe and a legend and redefines what being in one's prime means - because she just always is that.
She is a damn good person, talented, driven, works hard, she does so much, a normal person could not even absorb all she does, in fitness alone, poparotzzi can't even keep up with her jogging in the morning
It's so sad. When she was younger and more "beautiful" to the world that the same sort of interview that she gave then and the same sort of interview she gives now gets a totally different reaction based on her age.
Now that she's older what seemed to be cute and sexy then is now deemed "desperate".
Mark I know right? ageism sucks
One thing is true about Madonna. She is super comfortable when she knows she is (be)loved. When she doesn't feel loved enough she gets very nervous and desperated. She doesn't know how to deal with unpopularity. And all that reflect in her music, interviews and even in the concerts.

This is the first time I have seen a clip from Arsenio's 90's show and I definitely remember seeing this clip. I used to have so many VHS of Arsenio guests including Madonna. I wish I saved them but now all the great interviews are on RUclips. I remember when Madonna first hit the scene in 1984. That first album was always my favorite.
but she has done better albums since then. True Blue, Like a prayer, Erotica, Ray of Light, Confessions are masterpieces
@@irina1296 I love how she stayed true to her club roots and always gave us music to dance to. Her live shows were the best of any musical artist.
She always knows how to gain attention and she always makes the interviewer uncomfortable. She knows how to play, provoke and have fun.
C'mon it was 1990 and she was at her best: "Like a Prayer" was a huge success, "Vogue" was the new smash hit, the tour was about to begin, she got the movie, the album and Beatty.
She knew she became a superstar and yeah, she was full of herself.
She also did an album in 1992 Erotica and she came out with a book called Sex. It was huge back in 1992 and now its 2022 its been 30 yrs since that happened. Madonna is the Queen Of Pop and she wanted to rule the world and she did.
She started back in 1979-2022. That's alot of years to hold yourself high. I want Madonna to do an album with Kenrick Lamar she mentioned she would like to work with him***
Repartee is what they shared. Worked out too. My favorite movies by her remain Desperately Seeking Susan and A League of Their Own. (I know she didn't have many scenes in it but when she was onscreen she outshined even Gina Davis IMO, something not easily done given Gina's own presence and beauty)

lol, what bull...
One thing posters fail to realize--unless you saw the actual on-air telecast---was that she was still in her Breathless Mahoney look here as she hasn't yet completed the Dick Tracy film. She was also in promotional mode as 1) she's about to launch her soon to be ultra-successful Blonde Ambition Tour and 2) about to release a tie-in with her movie. And of course everything else that came after that was monumental: the high grossing tour, the b.o. success of Dick Tracy, the amazing video for "Vogue" the Truth or Dare documentary, and so on.
Actually, she was in the midst of her Blond Ambition Tour when she appeared on Arsenio. She had already completed the Asian portion of the tour and was embarking now on the U.S. leg. What people don't realize; is a lot of movies are in post production right up to the moment they are to be released. This is why the footage looked a bit rough. Though, she had finished her part in the movie the year before in 1989. In fact, much of the principle filming was completed in May of 1989 with the exception of some call backs in the summer of '89. That all said, she spent much of early '90 finishing up her I'm Breathless album, filming Vogue and tour rehearsals. You are right. She was in promotional mode. She was contracted to promote Dick Tracy, so she appeared where the demographics suited her most (the young hip Arsenio Show). But yes, she was at the height of her career by this point. The roller coaster ride of her career was soon to come, even though she still made huge impacts for years to come.
You're absolutely correct! What I meant was, yes, she was about to launch the U.S. leg for which I attended the L.A. Sports Arena stop with Technotronic as her opening act. 1990s was a huge year and looking back now she was barely scratching was was to be another decade of greatness.
You could never hear an interview like this on a night show these days.
Her being called edgy for dressing sexy and singing about sex is something female entertainers today are completely unaware of. Madonna paved the way for all females in the music industry and beyond. She empowered a generation of young women and it is her shoulders they are all standing on. Every female entertainer today has her to thank for empowering women in the music industry. And OMG his responses about her breast and Latoyas were so sexist and done in a away to try and knock her down!! Wow, I grew up in the 70 and 80's and had forgotten how rampant sexism was. It was acceptable for men to demean women, in just the way Arsenio does in this interview. I am glad times have changed but we have much work to do still.
I feel it's always present u can't get rid of sexism and stuff it's just human and part of a culture across the world
Talking about Madonna she did amazing but we had many before her too

She looks extremely white here. Her face look almost as The Joker

Vogue in 1990 was the peak of her superstardom, and she was a superstar from 1983. Nothing comes close except Elvis, Beatlemania, Thriller, and Purple Rain.
Am I the only one that has notice that she is wearing a long golden chain with a Dollar bill to it, the same she wears back for her 1992 appearance on the Arsenio Hall show with Rosie.

Madonna's I.Q. is approximately 160, or more. Technically, she is a genius. All the negative comments, and opinions about her are the result of green envy, and insane jealousy...... period. You wish you had her body, her looks, her innate talent, And, last but not least, her money and business acumen. Haters go away. Men in the entertainment business do what she's being accused of all the time (promiscuity). These men act like pigs..... The very biggest of dogs. Because she's a woman and acts like the sexual being she is, all the stiffs are having a problem with it? Piffle.
Amen, she's totally genius otherwise she wouldn't last 30 years in the music business
