jamemes: that's's what's hahappening. we are being sat in the back of the bus television style. and if pittman gets away with this, then there are others cable shows that are going to try it. pittman: mtv doesn't exclude black acts. what mtv does exclude is music that's not rock and roll. mtv came out with no consideration on how to o infuse black musisic into theheir mi. i am j just floorered by the fat that there are so few black artists featured on it. why is that? we have to try and do what we think not only new york and los angeles will appreciate but some town in the midwest that would be scared to death by prince or a string of other black faces. interesting. okay. thank you very much. when are we going to see anybody of color on mtv, bebecause you said "music television." when are you going to start covering all genres of musicic? whoo! music has no color. and it shouldn't have color. and i don't believe in that. what i do, i don't want it labeled black or white.

there was like hundreds of thousands of jewish girls araround the c country weaearig crcrucifixes b because of f ma. wowoman: whwhat do you u like about he? i like the way she thinks about acting free. she acts like a different attitude that no one else has. she dresses how she wants, acts how she wants, sings how she wants, she does what she wants. i think her appeal is that she is feminine, she is herself, she is sexual, but she's strong! she's an individual woman. rodgers: madonna understood the mtv phenomenon. she understood the vibe and the look and the sound. it all came together with her. everyone underestimates you. you keep giving them little surprises. if they get you all in one glance, then what's going to make them look again? ♪ ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, like a virgin ♪ ♪ feels so good inside ♪ peresman: when madonna sang "like a virgin" and started rolling around on the ground, people thought it was a career- ending moment for r her.
