Like every end of year MadonnaTribe puts together the best and most influential magazine covers Madonna has been on during that year.

We usually have to choose the best ten among dozens of worldwide covers but since this year Madonna has been very quietly busy working on some projects that will see the light in 2011 our list of essential Madonna covers this year is compiled with only three mags.

And they are: Interview Magazine - cover #1 and Interview Magazine - cover #2 with the amazing new photos by Alas and Piggot from May 2010 and Rolling Stone Italia with a vintage and lovely image from the 80's by Putland from February 2010.
