Line 63:
* [[Burger Fool]]: Before hitting it big as a recording artist, she worked in a New York Dunkin' Donuts, and was actually fired for squirting jelly in a customer's face.
* [[But Not Too White]]: Her debut single, "Everybody," was marketed without her image. The single's [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/8/8a/Everybody.jpg cover] is a picture of a black neighborhood, implying that Madonna was a black urban artist. She had to fight the record label to make a video for the song.
* [[Canon Dis ContinuityDiscontinuity]]:
** The video for "Holiday", Also the original video for "True Blue", which was done by an amateur director as part of a MTV contest.
** "True Blue" is also a major source of discontinuity, since the song was written about love for abusive ex-husband Sean Penn and Madonna has pretty much disowned the song, going so far as refusing to ever perform it in concert.
** Madonna had "Material Girl" filed under [[Canon Dis ContinuityDiscontinuity]] by the late 1980s, due to the [[Misaimed Fandom]] of the song and the way that the media and fans basically used the title as their de facto nickname for Madonna. It was performed on the Re-Invention Tour, but only because she couldn't learn how to play the chords for "Dress You Up" in time, and the tour director (Jamie King) convinced her to put the song on the setlist.
** She directed a critically panned and mostly nonsensical film called Filth and Wisdom in 2008. Three years later when her next project came out promotional materials claimed it was her "directorial debut" and in an interview Madonna claimed she only directed Filth and Wisdom so she could learn how to make a film so apparently it doesn't count.
* [[Christmas Cake]]: Come on, admit it. [[Grandma, What Massive Hotness You Have!|She looks pretty good for her age.]]
