Kevin Winter/Getty Images via ABCOne person who won’t be buying a ticket for a planned Madonna biopic? Madonna herself.
Following a report that Universal plans to make a movie called Blond Ambition, focusing on Madonna’s early career, the Queen of Pop took to Instagram to denounce the project.
Nobody knows what I know and what I have seen. Only I can tell my story,” she captioned a 1980s’-era photo of herself. “Anyone else who tries is a charlatan and a fool. Looking for instant gratification without doing the work. This is a disease in our society.”
While Madonna has starred in any number of films — from Desperately Seeking Susan and the documentary Truth or Dare, to Evita and the James Bond flick Die Another Day — she’s never told her story in movie or book form. The day she decides to spill it all, though, expect a multi-million-dollar bidding war.
