Madonna's "Sorry" video has a Jem and the Holograms T-shirt. The African American girl is wearing it at the very beginning of the video. She is wearing it while walking down the street, and hoping on the van. When Madonna singing "Please do say your sorry" for the first time ... she is shown dancing, and then removes the shirt to show a gold bra. If you slow-mo the video in that section, you won't miss it.
(the shirt has been cut into a V-neck)
