Medusa: Dare to Be Truthful (1991)
Directed by Julie Brown, John Fortenberry
Overview
In this made for Showtime television spoof of Madonna’s “Truth or Dare” documentary, comedienne Julie Brown portrays Medusa, an egocentric, hyper-sexual (and not particularly talented) pop star on an international five-day world tour, “The Blonde Leading the Blonde” show. Brown painstakingly duplicates costumes, sets and hairstyles while spoofing Madonna’s seeming self-obsession. Madonna visits the cemetery where her mother is buried; Medusa visits the pet cemetery where her dog Buster is laid to rest. (Or is it “Boomer”?) Madonna performs fellatio on a bottle, at the dare of a friend; Medusa does it on a watermelon. And so on…
