The Madonna Nudes
A 20-year-old unknown Madonna Ciccone earned 30 bucks for posing in this series of nude photos (some of them full-frontal) to pay her way through dance school. The snaps were published in Playboy in the 80s when she hit stardom. Now, as she gears up for her Sticky & Sweet tour, they are on show, and for sale.
