It’s always interesting to see how people have changed in a certain amount of time, and it’s even more fascinating if it’s someone famous who is usually on display. Eric Kroll, a well-known celebrity photographer based in New York, was lucky enough to capture these pictures of Madonna before she became the Queen of Pop.

The early photos of Madonna, which Kroll took in 1983, were made in the legendary New York’s club Danceteria, and show the young singer in her formative years, still being a part of the downtown scene. Scroll down to see them for yourself.

    I am a Brazilian digital artist who loves transforming imagination into hyper-real visuals. I work with artificial intelligence and image editing to create what I always wondered as a child: how would our favorite characters look in real life? Over time, many of my artworks have gone viral and were featured in international publications. I have recreated realistic versions of cartoon characters such as Disney and The Simpsons, imagined how celebrities who died young would look today, and even gave modern faces to historical figures like Mona Lisa or Shakespeare. Beyond entertainment, I created Para Não Esquecer, a social project that revisits memorable criminal cases in Brazil. My goal is to honor victims, keep memory alive and remind society that justice and empathy matter. I also write for Bored Panda, where I create articles featuring artists, photographers, rescue stories and feel-good moments from around the world. My work aims to highlight creativity, kindness and emotional storytelling. In everything I do, my purpose is the same: to touch hearts, evoke emotion and make people feel something real.

    Well, successful people are successful because they see the future and the present that leads to what's coming. ^_-

    I like that these are black and white. She has kind of a 1920s look.

    Power? Its called marketing. Many people do it as a career, and they do it very well. THAT is what Madonna is great at, marketing herself.
