Madonna - in the film Vision Quest

MadonnaIn 1985, Madonna entered mainstream films, beginning with a brief appearance as a club singer in the film Vision Quest. Its soundtrack contained her second U.S. number-one single "Crazy for You".

Later that year, Madonna appeared in Desperately Seeking Susan. The film introduced the song "Into the Groove", which became her first number-one single in the UK. Madonna embarked on her 1st concert tour in the U.S. in 1985 titled The Virgin Tour, with the Beastie Boys.

In July that year, Penthouse and Playboy magazines published a number of black and white n_de photos of Madonna taken in the late 1970s. Madonna took legal action to try and block them from being published, but when that failed she became unapologetic and defiant. At the outdoor Live Aid charity concert at the height of the controversy, Madonna made a critical reference to the media and stated Madonna would not take her jacket off because "they might hold it against me ten years from now".
