On June 28 2005, Madonna told Britain’s Grazia magazine:
“I am perfectly happy to muck around in a pair of drawstring pants and wellies. Sometimes my daughter gets angry because I go to school with her wearing my tracksuit and she say ‘Can’t you just wear normal clothes?’ I think she wants me to be a Yummy Mummy, but that’s not me.”
On June 27 2015, Bitch I’m Madonna earned Top Breakout and Most Added track on Billboard’s Hot Dance Club Play chart in the U.S.
On June 26, 2026, LOS40 reported that a new FIFA Version of Madonna’s “Read My Lips” with Colombian artist Feid had been released as part of the 2026 FIFA World Cup music rollout.
Produced by Tainy, the new version was described as a shorter edit of the Confessions II track, blending Madonna’s dance-pop world with Feid’s urban sound, funk carioca influences and Spanish-language moments.
The collaboration had already been hinted at in Confessions II – The Film, but the FIFA version gave fans another unexpected piece of the album’s expanding universe one week before Confessions II was scheduled for release.
According to LOS40, the track appeared on the Bonus Edition of the official FIFA World Cup 2026 album, alongside new music connected to other major global artists.
For fans, “Read My Lips” becoming part of the World Cup conversation was another reminder that the Confessions II era was not unfolding in one lane. It was moving through clubs, fashion, Pride, television, film — and now the world’s biggest sporting stage.
On June 25 1992, Madonna attended the New York premiere of A League Of Their Own at the Ziegfeld Theatre.
On June 24 1985, Madonna and Sean Penn announced that they would marry on August 16, 1985.
On June 23 2015, Liz Rosenberg announced her retirement as Madonna’s publicist.
During Madonna’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Madonna thanked Liz in her acceptance speech:
“She’s been — and still is — the head of publicity for my entire career. Now, does anybody understand the insanity of being my publicist for the last 25 years? Well, I think Liz was smoking a joint when I first met her. I walked into her office and she very politely stubbed it out in the ashtray. I don’t think she thought I knew she was smoking a joint but it was a little bit obvious. Anyway, we hit it off right away. She was my kinda girl — tough, irreverent and funny. And we’ve had a long and amazing chunk of time together.”
On June 22, 2026, Interview Magazine published The Madonna Interview, a major new cover story photographed by Nadia Lee Cohen and styled by Mel Ottenberg.
The feature marked Madonna’s eleventh cover for Interview, more than any other star in the magazine’s history. Shot late at night on the outskirts of London, the editorial introduced a new character Madonna called Dee Dee — a hard-living, big-haired woman with prosecco in her hand and rock-and-roll in her bones.
Fashion was central to the story. Throughout the shoot, Madonna wore Gucci, Boucheron, 4element, What Katie Did, Wolford, Seymoure, Valentino, David Webb, Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello, Agent Provocateur Archive, and pieces from her own wardrobe.
In the interview, Madonna discussed the collapse of her planned biopic, her reunion with Stuart Price, the making of Confessions II, writing with Lourdes Leon, the importance of Danceteria, and the way her past continued to shape her current work.
She also connected the new album back to the original Confessions on a Dance Floor era, revealing that YSL boots and Gucci jackets from her archive were used for the Confessions II album shoot with Rafael Pavarotti.
For fans, the Interview cover story felt like more than another promotional stop. It was Madonna documenting her own mythology in real time: the clothes, the clubs, the collaborators, the losses, the memories and the music all becoming part of the same confession.
