On May 17 1991, Madonna: Truth Or Dare was released in 538 US movie theatres.
Madonna: Truth or Dare (renamed “In Bed with Madonna” outside of North America) chronicled the life of Madonna during her 1990 Blond Ambition World Tour. The film was well received by critics and was successful at the box office, at that point becoming the highest-grossing documentary of all time with a worldwide gross of $29,012,935.
On May 13 1991, Madonna attended the premiere of Truth Or Dare at the Cannes Film Festival. In Europe the documentary was re-titled In Bed With Madonna.
On May 11 1991, the Wayne’s World Madonna Fantasy on Saturday Night Live aired. The sketch ranked #4 among the Top 50 Greatest ‘Saturday Night Live’ Sketches of All Time!
From Rollingstone: “It was terrifying,” Mike Myers has said of kissing Madonna. And no wonder: In 1991, there was no more intimidating star than the just-banned-from-MTV Material Girl. Her fantasy rendezvous with Wayne and Garth was probably SNL‘s most perfect pop culture convergence ever: One of the most famous people on earth, writhing in the black-and-white world of Justify My Love, the most controversial video of all time, speaking in the dopey slang (“No way!” “Way!”) of the most popular recurring characters since the Blues Brothers. And we were only approaching Waynemania, which would peak in 1992 with their feature film. During shooting, Myers and Dana Carvey had a personal falling-out, and were never quite able to re-capture the magic – though that didn’t stop Lorne Michaels from producing a sequel or doing the sketch seven more times.
On May 6 1991, Madonna attended the Los Angeles premiere of Truth Or Dare, a film documentary of her Blond Ambition World Tour 1990, directed by Alek Keshishian, at the Pacific Cinerama Dome.
On March 25 1991, Madonna performed Sooner Or Later from Dick Tracy at the 63rd annual Academy Awards at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles, California. Sooner Or Later won the Oscar for Best Original Song by Stephen Sondheim; her escort at the awards was Michael Jackson.
