This vintage photo of young Madonna riding on a bus on a rainy day in NYC stirred up considerable conversation on Facebook. Probably in the 80’s long before she considered becoming a blonde. You can just imagine the apartment she went home to…
What could be more uplifting on a Monday than a trip back to the indulgent 80’s? We came upon this photo of Duran Duran’s Nick Rhodes’ 1984 wedding at the observational Dangerous Minds.net site and it says EVERYTHING about music style in the 80’s. Nick, 22, married Idaho department store heiress Julie Anne Friedman, 25, in a costly over the top ceremony in London. When Andy Warhol met the couple (he had a crush on Rhodes) he remarked that Nick “wore twice as much makeup as Julie” and was “half as tall.” In spite of the decadent era, the marriage lasted 8 years and produced a daughter. (We met Nick at an MTV event in the 80’s and he was as adorable as he was high on something.)
Thirty years ago Dale Bozzio was singing “Walking in LA/Nobody Walks in LA” with the new wave band Missing Persons and she looked like this. Remind you of anyone?
