Madonna - Like A Virgin Reaction

[@matthewdunne8432]

Did they play it on the radio??? Lmao for like a decade and when it came out it was number one for like a thousand years

[@t.yvonneworley8124]

I know, Right?...I cant with these two!!.☺☺☺

[@dalee72]

Yes, it was #1 for 6 weeks.

[@joshuas8258]

To answer your question this song was played on the radio and became Madonna’s first #1 song. It started Madonna mania and made her a superstar. You guys still need to do the Take a Bow video and basically the entire Confessions tour. The opening of Future Lovers, Erotica, Live to Tell and Lucky Star/Hung Up are incredible. Best live concert I’ve been to in my life and I’ve seen EVERYONE

YES! The opening from the Confessions tour...Future Lovers! AMAZING!

[@guillermovilla9517]

@@johanvajse8410 Borderline was the song/video that got me hooked!!

[@TheOGJLaw]

this was a gigantic hit - she’d already had hits with Holiday, Everybody, Borderline, and Lucky Star. Then they had the first MtV music awards and she performed this song in a wedding gown and rolled around on the floor and everyone lost their shit and she basically made MtV the coolest thing ever.

[@kenbrodnick7500]

There's a documentary in the 80s of girls dressing like her and wanting to be her in every way shape and form it was nuts. She was like the Elvis of the 80s generation

[@johanvajse8410]

lived thru that. It was nuts I wanted to be Cyndi

[@graphiquejack]

I read a quote where MJ had said he felt Madonna was jealous of him because she would never get people screaming at her concerts because she was a woman. I’m like, umm... all those young girls (and gays) who dressed like her? People freaked out at her concerts. MJ was a legend and icon, but Madonna had no reason to be jealous of him. What a weird thing to say... frankly it’s sexist

[@Bella-qw4re]

I remember it. It was Madonna mania. My parents wouldn’t let me dress like her, but I had the black rubber bracelets, used black eyeliner for a beauty mark like she did and did my hair like hers; but could only leave the house with the bracelets and hairdo. I was only 13. ❤️😍🎶🎤👸🏼😆

[@patrickmiller1834]

This song was a MONSTER played on the radio on MTV power rotation all day all night. The video is filmed in New York City and Venice Italy and was number one on billboard for six straight weeks

[@FranklySpeaking.]

The ICONIC cone bra comes from the Blond Ambition '90 Tour... most famously during the "Express Yourself" concert opening. And yes... LAV got MAJOR airplay on every radio station in the world. This was the song that catapulted M to megastardom!

The cone bra out in Madonna's blond ambition tour when she did like a virgin I think that you guys should react to that for sure too.. & Truth or Dare which I think you guys should give it a try

[@TheWeirdTeenager2010]

The said they already watched their documentary :(

[@dal9631]

Yeah, what they said. Also the MTV awards live version. That performance preceded the release of the album and the radio play of the song and the music video btw

[@graphiquejack]

I equate the cone bra more with Express Yourself and blond ambition, but yes, she wore another one for Like A Virgin on the same tour

[@nunogouveia6458]

First time she wears an early version of the cone bras was in "Open Your Heart" video.

[@dennisgreenwell9731]

John Paul Gaultier designed the cone bras

[@mariamayub212]

Oh yes, I was 11 years old when this came out and I was already a fan from the lucky star video which came out in the summer of 84. Yes, they played this on the radio all the time even the 12-in remix which I taped off the radio and I still have my mixtape. The video was played Non-Stop and it was mass hysteria back then, she was on all the magazine covers in all the newspapers and on TV constantly. She went from being one of the female singers of the '80s too and icon overnight :-)

[@trippmcintyre2347]

Yes this was before the “Cones” her Second Album. The historic MTV awards performance to this song caused a Media sensation! I believe her Manager told her it would ruin her career. During that performance you can see the audiences mouths hit the floor. By today’s standards it may not seem that dirty. But trust me I was watching it and the next day! We were like OMG! She was a Super Star!

[@lauren92355]

This song was on a constant rotation on the radio and on MTV, and her performance of this song at the very first MTV VMA AWARDS in that bridal gown is absolutely iconic!

The actual first time she started to wear basques and bra's with nipple tassles was actually for the 'Open Your Heart' video, the conical bra stemmed from there and was restructered/updated for the Blonde Ambition Tour :)

[@TheSamuraiInAutumn]

This is Madonna 2nd album. It was a mayor success. Every girl in the 80's wanted to dress like her. She was 26 yo at the time. She said she wanted to rule the world and clearly she made it.

[@coliestellar917]

I love watching you both learning about Madonna videos. Some videos I personally remember in the moment, others I was too young to know about, and others came later and I just never got around to seeing them. But I love watching your first time reactions and getting your Gen Z perspective on now that a lot of Madonna stuff is more retro these days.

[@sxnico]

It was played on the radio and was the Number One song on Billboard for 6 weeks.

[@Bella-qw4re]

The cone bra outfits started during M’s “True Blue” album. She worked with Marlene Stewart on her costumes on this tour. This was during Madonna’s 1987 international and second tour, “Who’s That Girl”. It was titled after a movie she was in of the same name. Later she collaborated with Famous French designer Jean Paul Gaultier with the cone bra outfits and it continued with her her “ Blond Ambition” tour.

Those aren’t cones. Those were technically bustiers and corsets with tassels and wire seams. The cone bra was designed by Jean Paul Gaultier and appeared first in the Blonde Ambition Tour.

[@AndyGSF]

She performed this at the very first mtv music awards and solidified herself as a star. That performance is known as one of the most iconic moments of the 80's.

[@brennisbooth3259]

This song came out the year I graduated and it is ALL you heard. Little high school girls from the suburbs were all dolled up like Madonna and there wasn’t a gay club anywhere that wasn’t playing it. I worked at a restaurant that had a jukebox and by the end of the weekend you were singing this while you slept because you heard it so much. Yeah, good times.

[@majerelynn]

Oh wiw. I still love this song. I was 12 years old when then song came out and I will never forget it. I was singing this song in the house and my mom heard the words and getting really upset at me. Little boys weren't supposed to be singing songs about being a virgin and being touched. :-D

@@TrevorPalmatiershow Yup they had pre-sale through American Express card holders and the lines at tickettron at the malls were hundreds deep. So the clerks would go in at 8am and start printing tickets in packs of 4 and 2 so when ppl stepped up at 9am opening they were just handing them out and taking payment then. So they'd sell out venues in minutes because all of them did this. Each location was only allotted certain amounts of tickets that's how tickettron worked back then. My aunt worked at Sears and that's what she did. She and another coworker ran the two tickettron computers.

This song was played EVERYWHERE!! Radio of course but most importantly MTV. I was in 5th grade and wore fingerless lace gloves to school, spiked bracelet and an arm full of gummy bracelets and bangles. To fully appreciate the look and influence, watch Into the Groove from Desperately Seeking Susan and Borderline. Kids in the 80s sang this song, along with I want your sex and Centerfold and no one gave 2 $hits. Our parents just thought we had no idea what we were singing about and/or liked the songs too. We also wore no seatbelts or bike helmets. We were latch key kids raising ourselves and coming of age to Madonna, Prince, George Michael and Duran Duran. It was magical.

[@giannipiccolo2832]

With this video, everyone noted Madonna's portrayal of a sexually independent and strong woman, similarity of a man wearing a lion's mask to that of Saint Mark and the link between the eroticism in the video and the vitality of Venice. Madonna's public persona of an indomitable, sexually unashamed, supremely confident woman was widely accepted by the younger generation who emulated her style and fashion in the so called “madonnamania” so that many girls in America started to dress like her. And this was just the beginning of her career.

We listened to this song on the radio, on our boom boxes so everyone around could stop and dance to it! My best friend and I loved her, and he had a poster of her up on the wall with the hairy armpits.

Like a Virgin made her a MEGA star when it came out. Her fashion/style was copied by every teenage girl and woman. She was an absolute sensation. She was Beyonce & Taylor combined. This era was my favorite as it was when she became the trendsetter in pop culture. She looked fabulous. This song was played on the radio and MTV but was never banned. There for sure was controversy. The first of an entire of career of her condemnation by the Church. She always got the last laugh though!

The lion imagery was used because Madonna and her music video director Mary Lambert wanted the theme to be based on the Beauty and the Beast. And the lion is the symbol of Venice Italy where the music video was shot in. And Madonna is a Leo which is symbolized by a lion. I think that you missed the part where the lion pants his tongue in sync with the hook of the song right before she sings "You're so fine. And you're mine."
