9.
Madonna's 'Vogue' 1990 was ninth on the list. She authored herself in her videos and understood that the video created more of an image of her than her songs. The song and video are both about a dance craze sweeping New York's underground hippest nightclubs. It was a very camp, gay dance created from movements in the fashion industry on runways and photoshoots. This was used as a safe way of fighting, if two people were arguing they would take it to the dancefloor instead of having a fist fight. This video represents gay men dancing mixed with Hollywood glamour using famous images of Madonna showing herself in context as Marilyn Monroe.
