Madonna in Girl 6
Summary Spike Lee recalls the backlash he received after casting pop sensation Madonna in his 1996 critically mixed comedy, Girl 6. Released 28 years ago, Girl 6 followed the story of young actor Judy , who becomes disillusioned with her job after being asked to expose her breasts during an audition. Judy secures a new job at a call center, eventually finding a sense of purpose as a phone sex operator.
I didn’t give a f--k. She’s who I had in mind, and she wanted to do it, so that was it. She’s a pro. Madonna starred in a string of box office blunders in the '80s and '90s, beginning with her next film, 1986's Shanghai Surprise, in which she acted alongside her then-newlywed husband, Sean Penn, in an adventure-comedy film. It was a commercial and critical failure, panned by critics, and it earned Madonna her first Golden Raspberry Award for Worst Actress.
