Madonna is her own Hollywood studio - a popelike mogul and divine superstar in one.

I also think if you're an actor and you can improvise, when you go on an audition and you can improvise you're just a genius. If you can, you know, take a Tide commercial and you can just say one funny line that's not in the commercial they think you're a genius. ↗
