Overall: 
ALT1 preferred, though the others are adequately sourced and accurate. ALT1, while trivial, is catchiest, is surprising, and will lure in a greater audience. Suggest rewording "... that Terrace on the Park once employed Madonna as an elevator operator?" - hahnchen 01:16, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the quick review hahnchen. I've added your proposed wording above as ALT1A. Epicgenius (talk) 01:31, 10 September 2024 (UTC)
