LHJ Interview abstract on magazine’s official site

An abstract from the Madonna Ladies Home Journal interview published on the July issue is now available on the magazine’s official website. Click Here to read what Madonna has to say to Laura Brounstein about her marriage to director Guy Ritchie, on motherhood, on regrets, on her children’s books and on her faith.

Ladies’ Home Journal’s editor-in-chief, Diane Salvatore, who was present for the eight-hour shoot, explains that Madonna and her team collaborated for weeks with the Ladies’ Home Journal creative team, as well as with photographer Lorenzo Agius, on the elaborate costumes and set. The shoot took place at a prop house in North London that specializes in international antiques. The room that was created for the Madonna shoot was meant to suggest a 15th-century library, in keeping with the underlying theme of the classic power of books and reading. “We were transported in time. The set looked like Nostradamus meets Alice in Wonderland“. Madonna wore a series of gorgeous dresses and outfits, including Chanel and Vivienne Westwood, not to mention posing playfully with an assortment of monocles, top hats, and even taxidermy mice. “She was the consummate pro – she worked hard, she was focused, she was polite, she changed outfits more swiftly and immaculately than I ever seen anyone do,” says Salvatore.
