DJ Edith Bowman: Madonna was my icon growing up

Radio 1 presenter Edith Bowman was interviewed by UK newspaper the Metro and was asked about her icons:

Did you have any icons growing up?
Madonna was a big one for me. Weirdly, I can remember dressing up as her for Halloween when I was about ten years old. I was 'Like A Virgin Madonna' and my friend was 'Into The Groove Madonna' and we want round our local village with a tape recorder and sang along to Madonna songs. We made an absolute fortune.

She was slagging her off during the TV coverage Big Weekend, because everyone was in M's tent and NO-ONE was watching the Editors (her boyfriend) in the other tent

And yet she slagged off Madonna saying she wasn't interested in seeing her because she had a "large entourage" at the Sticky and Sweet Radio 1 gig?? Of course she did - did you see the set Edith?!
