Madonnalicious.com - EXPOSED

A few months back I asked my friend Clare to answer me a few questions about herself. Clare controls the Madonna Blog Madonnalicious and has been doing a wonderful job for several years now. Thing is, when you log into her site it's always about MADONNA! The creator herself never gives neither a moment of herself or her opinion on what her sites all about. I needed to know, (I mean we've been E writing back and forth a couple years now and didn't even know what she looked like!) ...finally, after a long long wait (she did email several times explaining that my questioned were on her "Things to do list" I have finally gotten the Queen who distributes all good media about the Queen on a Q & A...About Herself...Enjoy!



Oh my goodness - madonnalicious has actually got around to answering your questions!


1. So How long have you been a Madonna Fan?


Well it all started back in 1984. A young 11 year old found herself spending her pocket money on the Like A Virgin vinyl single (showing my age now!). Then the next year I found myself searching high and low to find 'those' sparkly boots from Desperately Seeking Susan. Yes, I was a Madonna wannabee.


2. Have you ever personally met Madonna? If so what was that experience like?


I have never personally met Madonna, the closest I guess is being in the pit during the Re-Invention tour and having her hold my hand and looking into my eyes while singing some lines from Deeper and Deeper to me. A slightly unnerving experience. I have met several members of Madonna's inner circle though....


3. Your from England Yes? What's it like living there, have you lived all your life and have you ever considered living somewhere else?


Yes, I am from England, and am currently living in London (and on the same bus route as Madonna - my claim to fame!). I was born in Essex (which is like New Jersey to your New York) and moved to London when I started work. I like where I am at the moment, I live out in the suburbs of London, but am just a short tube ride into London to visit my house of worship - that Selfridge's department store to you! I haven't really considered moving anywhere else, I had a time when I wanted to live in Paris, but that was short-lived when I realised I would have to learn French.


4. What is your take on blogging? Can you provide any advice being your blog is read by thousands each day?


Although my site is a 'blog' as such, I don't really consider it one. I tend to keep my personal views out of my posts and just stick to the news. My site has been successful because I try to keep it to just concise news which makes it an easy and quick read for people who want a quick Madonna news fix.


5. What is your favorite album in Madonna's carrier? Favorite time frame? and Last the one song of Madonna's that holds a favorite.


You know, I tend to always like the most recent reinvention, most recent album. I'm quiet easily pleased! Although I have recently rediscovered the True Blue album - and I have to say I love every song - (yes even Jimmy Jimmy!) I can never name a favourite song, it depends on my mood....


6. Besides blogging on Madonna, do you yourself have other work? Do you enjoy what you do?


The site is just a 'hobby' - which has got a little out of control! I actually have a full time job as a biomedical scientist. I spend all day in a laboratory working on people's blood samples so if they need a transfusion, they get the right blood. I do enjoy it, although it is a little stressful at times.

7. Can you provide a photo of yourself?


HeHe - my standard head shot - a self portrait taken the night I caught (and am then wearing) Madonna's Brits Do It Better ttshirt :-)
