Madonna Vogue
The term \u201ciconic\u201d is bandied about on this podcast far too often, but when it comes to describing Madonna\u2019s Vogue, there\u2019s really no better adjective.
At the intersection of old Hollywood glamour and the New York ballroom scene, Vogue was responsible for introducing queer POCs and their art to the mainstream on its release in 1990. Accompanied by David Fincher\u2019s chill-inducing black and white video and *that* performance at the MTV Video Music Awards, the song immediately became required reading on the Queer Culture 101 syllabus and that position in the canon holds strong thirty years later.
It is for all these reasons and more that we bring you an entire, full-length episode dedicated purely to Vogue.
The subject is too big to tackle alone. As such, we begged deep biological sis of the pod \u2013 and Aural Fixation\u2019s answer to Merle Ginsberg \u2013 Char to return to the airwaves and give her hot takes. Join us, won\u2019t you, as we honour the human personification of Leo (on the week of her 62nd birthday no less!). Don\u2019t just stand there, let\u2019s get to it.
