The magazine’s readers voted for their favorite celebrities once per year and these awards—painted in gold, silver, and bronze—were awarded to the top vote-getters. Other recipients included Kim Wilde, Eric Carr, and Roger Moore; Madonna also received the 1985 golden award for film star of the year, having appeared in Vision Quest and Desperately Seeking Susan. Her album Like a Virgin, released at the end of 1984, topped the charts in both America and Germany during 1985, marking her emergence as a bona fide international superstar.
