Pretty much every successful musician has a “dark” period, which often results in some of their best music.
For a certain segment of pop starlets, however, their dark periods are more often characterized not by dark music, but by dark clothes.

One of Sarah’s favourite adventures during TIFF 2011 was interviewing and hanging around with the cast of Leave It On The Floor (she got along with them so fab that they even gave her a nickname, “Sarbear”). The cast were all super-fabulous members of the “ball scene,” a highly theatrical gay performance subculture probably best known as the place Madonna nicked voguing from.

Which was the incentive to write the article Madonna Movies: From Best To Worst for Spinner Canada. You can read about it here.
