Pop Sovereign: a conversation with Madonna

T. Cole Rachel met Madonna during the Rebel Heart press junket at Sotheby’s in New York City last January, and the interview is now online on Pitchfork.com

There’s an approximate 100% probability that any living human over the age of, say, 25 has some sort of specific Madonna-related memory.
