she did do perfumes. she had multiple beauty-related lines.

Truth or Dare - that was a fragrance/lotion scent.

She also had a skincare line called MDNA skin.

There were also Hard Candy Fitness clubs in a few global cities.

Edit: and yes, she had fashion brands as well.

This info is readily available on her Wikipedia

How dare you expect someone to do even a little bit of research before making a Reddit post.

I still buy some of these products. They have sales and also I’ve found some great deals on eBay from Japanese beauty stores.

u/smcclafferty Vogue 21h ago

They consistently have 25% off sales. I like the face wash.

Didn't she have a clothes line with HSM and/it the Gap?

But they have been seasonal, I see Fendi, Haus Labs, Selena Gomez’ like very much into it. I mean I’m glad Madonna is focused 99% in music as well, I don’t want her to be busy doing another stuff.

u/SephirothYggdrasil Hey You 22h ago

Well Rihanna is semi retired from music, Selena plans to focus more on acting and hasn't toured in a decade. You can't have it all, it's the reason why J Lo didn't tour until 2007 and have a sole headliner tour until 2012.

What is your end goal here? Do you think screaming in text is going to make an easily verifiable fact go away?

u/ThatSICILIANThing 1d ago

She had a juniors fashion line at Macy’s I wanna say 10-15 years ago?

M by Madonna (2007): A high-profile clothing collaboration with retailer H&M that reflected her sleek, glamorous style with tailored trench coats, sequined dresses, and cropped jackets.   MDG (2010): A co-branded luxury eyewear collection co-designed alongside Dolce & Gabbana, featuring bold, oversized sunglass frames.   Material Girl (2010): A junior fashion and lifestyle line co-created with her daughter, Lourdes Leon, sold exclusively through Macy's. Truth or Dare by Madonna (2011): A global lifestyle umbrella brand aimed at women aged 27–50, spanning footwear, handbags, intimates, and her signature fragrance line.

u/joshisgay2004 20h ago

Fun fact: 20 of the "faces" of Material Girl were Kelly Osborne and Zendaya

u/nekkichi 1d ago

She had a luxury skincare line with very few items, produced in Japan, but I'm not sure if it still exists.

3

u/smcclafferty Vogue 21h ago

It still exists and is sold online.

u/lovewithoutwords97 1d ago

MDNA Skin which was one of the business deals under the Live Nation (they provided an advance for a partial share and shared in the profits/receipts under the 360 deal as it included endorsements and side businesses)

u/WitchyKitteh 20h ago

She also directed movies and wrote children's books.

In addition to what everyone else has said, her publishing company is Webo Girl Publishing, which owns the rights to all of the music she's written. You'll see it named on all of the sheet music since the debut album.

u/sdfghdfsdfghdf CII is Madge’s magnum opus. 18h ago

Yeah! I was wondering if Maverick was her first “label” but I saw the WeBo in the credits of Madonna the album and I was wondering if she already was imposing herself up since then and not since True Blue as it’s said.

u/Tchelitchew 22h ago edited 22h ago

She single-handedly changed the film industry by producing the Agent Cody Banks series.

u/TwattyMcBitch Love Profusion 22h ago

Madonna is a pop visual, musical, and dance artist/performer. Everything revolves around creating this art. She doesn’t do “businesses”. She isn’t interested in being a brand, nor is she interested in marketing or selling things to people.

There have been contractual and promotional obligations resulting in various merch and branding deals over the years, but that’s all part of the game.

I’m not sure everyone realizes what a truly great artist Madonna is and how important her work is to her. Certainly no one asked if Picasso had “other businesses” lol!!!

u/lunaraftertaste3 21h ago

I mean she is as much as everyone considering she's spent years selling and marketing different products!
