On the Cover of a Magazine...2015

Madonna lands on the cover of Rolling Stone’s latest special Collectors issue.

Madonna is the top-selling female recording artist of all time, has the most #1 hits on any single chart ever and can now add another trophy to her mantle: she’s Rolling Stone’s first female to get their own Collector’s Edition – Madonna: The Ultimate Guide to Her Music & Legend – out today (Sep. 3).

Others in her company include John Lennon, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, U2 and Paul McCartney.

The 100-page spread features some of her most iconic photographs and interview excerpts – it even sprung up on eBay already.

Mike Tyson and Madonna

BY JASON NEWMAN | January 23, 2015

When Madonna released the finished track list for her upcoming album Rebel Heart earlier this week, the most conspicuous guest star wasn't Nicki Minaj, Nas or Chance the Rapper. That distinction fell to Mike Tyson, who appears with the singer and Chance the Rapper on new track "Iconic".  And while Tyson hasn't heard the finished track yet (a leaked demo of the song only featured Madonna), the former boxer-turned-actor tells Rolling Stone that his role was similar to his 1998 appearance as a hype man on battle rapper Canibus' "Second Round K.O."
