Controversial and erotic Madonna

Known for not just reinvention but also controversy, Madonna has once again caused a scandal. Madonna’s love letters and erotic answering machine messages to an ex-boyfriend are now up for sale in New York City.

In an online auction called “Gotta Have It!”, Madonna’s scandalous love letters and erotic answering machine messages are among nearly 500 personal celebrity items.

Back in the ’90s, Madonna faxed love letters to her then-boyfriend Jim Albright and left naughty messages on his answering machine. These scandalous Madonna items are on two micro-cassette tapes estimated to sell for up to $40,000.
