"Like a Virgin" is the first number-one single from American singer Madonna, topping the charts at the end of 1984, and the beginning of 1985.
The title and lyrics were enough to raise eyebrows in 1984. Madonna's performance at the 1984 MTV Video Music awards is considered by many to be her true "arrival". Wearing the white wedding dress from her music video (Boy-Toy belt buckle and all), Madonna rolled around onstage and simulated masturbation with the veil, making it one of the most famous performances of her career.
In 1990, Madonna again attracted attention for performing the song. Dressed in a gold bustier with the iconic cone-bra by Jean-Paul Gaultier she sat on a crimson bed, singing a Middle Eastern-influenced version of the song and simulated masturbation. The performance was so risque that police in Toronto, Canada, threatened to arrest her and charge her with indecency. Madonna, of course, was unyielding, stating that she would much rather cancel the show than change it. The show went on unaltered, and the police backed off, and now Like a Virgin is one of Madonna's most well-loved songs.
