When we set out to do this story, we had to work out who our cast was, and how to fill the roles needed for an Indy story. And one of the roles was the classy villain. Belloq, Donovan, and Irina Spalko were all bad guys, but they weren't the one's who got their hands dirty. They were sophisticated, educated opponents. So we wanted that character. I can't remember why we wanted a woman, but we knew the kind of woman she'd be. The Baroness, The Spirit' P'Gell, that sort of powerful, commanding woman. So we started tossing around royal titles and considering our inspiration for the character. She was important because she ties into the whole Cola Wars history. We needed to find a real world source that had a connection to the actual Cola wars, had the right personality, and one or two other conditions. We hit upon what seemed like a good choice, and then I had to do some research. Yes, she'd done ads for Pepsi, had appeared and done music for film, and once I started reading some bio work, and watching behind the scenes video, found she had the right personality for the job. And her personal fashion style was perfect as well.
It was like a prayer had been answered...
For those who haven’t seen ‘In Bed with Madonna’, it’s an interesting look at Madonna off stage and behind the scenes. Early on there’s a show in Toronto where she’s asked to ‘tone it down’ and she doesn’t respond well.

Thanks for the kind words Lazy J. In regards to Lady Ciccone, sure she’s heard of pants. She’s just the kind of person who likes to “express herself”.
