Randy Taraborrelli's scrupulously researched
and completely balanced unauthorized biog-
raphy of one of the world's most celebrated enter-

It is significant that Madonna: An Intimate

It is significant that Madonna: An Intimate
Biography is the first such book written about the
star in over a decade, because in the past ten years
the ever-changing Madonna has gone through her
biggest transformation yet—from tempestuous sex
goddess to happily married mother. Amazingly,
as she launches her first worldwide tour in eight
years, she is now—at forty-something—enjoying
one of the most successful periods of her ground-
breaking career.
Whereas other books about Madonna have been
based on previously published material, Madonna:
An Intimate Biography is the result of ten years of
exclusive interviews with people who are speak-
ing publicly about her for the first time, including
close friends, business associates and even family
members. Since Taraborrelli interviewed the star
herself early in her career, he is now able to draw
from such firsthand experiences to place her suc-
cess story in perspective and provide new, stunning
insights. The true Madonna, as presented here, is
not merely a sensation-seeking tabloid vixen, but
a flesh-and-blood woman with human foibles and
weaknesses—as well as great strengths and ambitions.
(continued from front flap)
For the first time, the reader learns about the
complex nature of her difficult relationship with her
father, and how the two finally found one another
after years of estrangement; how Warren Beatty
broke her heart, and why the two never wed; how
she and John Kennedy, Jr., became romantically
involved, his mother's reaction to the prospect of
Madonna as a daughter-in-law and why it could
never have worked out; the truth of her relation-
ships with the fathers of her two children and how,
as a loving and attentive mother, she has evolved
into a surprisingly different woman . . . and what
the future holds for her.
Madonna: An Intimate Biography is a truly
explosive and definitive account of the life of an
entertainer who is undoubtedly one of the most
popular, trendsetting figures of our time. Full of
amazing disclosures about her private life and
public career, New York Times bestselling author
J. Randy Taraborrelli's latest work reveals Madonna
in a new—and surprisingly inspiring—way. Not
only a feast for fans, this book is great entertain-
ment for anyone who enjoys a remarkable story,
stirringly told. Vissza
