20 years of SEX BOOK
Yesterday, we celebrated 20 years of EROTICA album, today it's all about the SEX book!
Madonna released the book of photographs by Steven Meisel alongside shots from a film made by Fabien Baron.
The book caused quite a stir back in the day, for its strong and explicit content of sadomasochism and analingus.
Madonna wrote the book as a character named Mistress Dita, inspired by 1930s film actress Dita Parlo.
Featured in the book, aside from unknown models, are actress Isabella Rossellini, rapper Vanilla Ice (Madonna's boyfriend at the time), model Naomi Campbell, gay porn star Joey Stefano, socialite Tatiana von Fürstenberg and nightclub owner and Madonna's longtime friend Ingrid Casares.
For the release of SEX, Madonna gave a party at New York City's Industria Superstudio, which she attended dressed as Little Bo Peep with a stuffed toy lamb.
