This was the standard for both men and women.  I never got into that trend myself considering how young I was in 1985.  In fact I never got the appeal of men wearing their hair up off their heads unless you were in a glam metal band.  ;) Sorry boys.  ;)

You are slightly older than I am. I turned 5 in 1985, but I remember so much from that year! I remember when I started Kindergarten, and watching my very first movie at the cinema(The Goonies). I remember all the music and fashion as well. VH1 and MTV was always on at our house, and I always joined my brother and sister watching music videos. Fun Times!

I just loved some of the fashion trends in the mid 1980s.  Big hair on men was not one of those things that I liked unless they happened to be in glam rock bands.

I had a birthday party for my 40th last year and boy was I shocked when My Mother being the sneak that she is, took me to a restaurant and I never knew she set the place for us to have my party.When I arrived I saw my friends and family, so she did set it up. Probably gathered a couple of my friends and relatives from Facebook and email and later it was such a wonderful treat.  :)

I was too young to experience Madonna's peak of her popularity in the 80s and early 90s.

It was a one-time thing, for fun.  She's not following in her mother's footsteps, but there are a lot worse things she could do.  Madonna may have been raunchy at times, but deep down she's a caring person, a humanitarian, and has given a ton of money to charities.  She's also inspired countless other artists throughout the years.  She also inspired me.  She's the prime example of being able to accomplish anything you dream of, if you work hard enough.

Of course Lordes is 18 years old.  I'm fairly certain she's her own person not like her mom.  I think she did this because it was fun and also because she wants to prove that she can be her own person and doesn't want to be compared to her mother.  :)
