On January 14 1984, Madonna made her North American network television debut, performing Holiday on ABC-TV’s American Bandstand – hosted by Dick Clark.
Dick Clark asked Madonna, “What do you hope will happen, not only in 1984 but for the rest of your professional life? What are your dreams? What’s left?”
Madonna answered simply, “To rule the world.”
Today In Madonna History 
An outstanding moment! I remember having to stay in that afternoon to catch bandstand in New York. Madonna seized the moment and ate the stage up for 4 minutes. Dick Clark didn’t even know the star quality before him and yes she did and still does rule the world 🌎
That she does! Madonna has saved, changed and ruled the world because of her beautiful songs! Key ballad-Live to Tell.
You speak the truth Richard!
