MTV Video countdown - Number 10 - Madonna - Express Yourself

I will probably make a whole separate post dedicated solely to the Queen of Pop so for the time being lets have a look at her 6th number 1 hit "- Express yourself". And, as this is music video week, lets check out what the most expensive video (at that time) looks like -



Well...I think 5 million dollars could've been put to better use, but then again, this IS directed by DAVID FINCH! Yes, the same David Finch who directed "Se7en", "Fight Club", "Alien 3" and a personal favorite - "The Game". I'm guessing half of the 5 mil was his commission :)

And yes, $5 million is a ridiculous amount of money to spend on a 4 minute video, and, yes, it was the most expensive video at the time, until it got trumped by Madonna herself in 2002 with the video for "Die another day". There is another video which tops the list, but lets keep it a secret for now, as it will make an appearance on the list later on ;)
