Madonna has topped a new poll to find the greatest music video artist of all time.
The Express Yourself hitmaker beat Michael Jackson and Beyonce to the number one spot in the Billboard countdown, compiled by editors and experts.
“Ascending to era-defining supremacy shortly after MTV itself, Madonna’s high-concept videos, which channeled old Hollywood while paving a provocative visual path into the future, were an integral part of her ever-changing image and the meticulous control she exercised around it,” they wrote.
Thriller star Michael comes in second, ahead of Beyonce. Janet Jackson and Missy Elliott also make the top five.
Lady Gaga, Duran Duran, Britney Spears, JAY-Z, and Nirvana occupy the 6 – 10 spots on the poll.
Madonna is rumoured to be working on a biopic based on her life and career – here’s who she’s reportedly eyeing for the starring role.
