* Madeline technically has her own voice lines, however they're hidden inside the "In The Mirror" track, which, if reversed, will reveal a hidden lament voiced by [[Lena Raine]], talking about her (presumably in Madeline's name) own struggles, fears, and thoughts, followed by quiet sighs and sobbing.
* Upon Celeste's release, especially after [[Farewell]] has been introduced, a huge amount of curiosity has grown about the possibility of Madeline being transgender. This has officially been [[CW:TR|confirmed]] on a blog post by [[Maddy Thorson]], on the 6th of November, 2020.
** In the blog post, Maddy also explains how the development of them and the character has gone through changes, and that her gender identity was purposefully been shown very subtly to give Madeline and the trans community respect without it feeling forcefully shown, as well as they realized over time that they've been writing a trans narrative all along. She also wanted to make sure everyone could relate to her story without feeling alienated.
** There are a couple of hints towards Madeline being trans, such as the pride flags, prescriptive pills, a short-haired picture of her in the Farewell ending cutscene, and a photo of her with rainbow socks on Theo's [[InstaPix]].
** The consistent usage of mirrors as a theme, visualization of Badeline, Madeline's reactions to taking selfies, and the hidden lament in the Mirror Temple theme reference common struggles of people dealing with gender dysphoria.
* Many emojis about ''Celeste'' are Madeline emojis. Many are based directly on expressions she shows in the game. Others simply consist of something completely unrelated with Madeline's hair stamped on top. The most notable example of this is [[Frogeline]] with its many variations.
* Maddy Thorson has made joke tweets revealing Madeline's height (213.36 cm)<ref name="height">{{Cite tweet|user = MaddyThorson|number = 1557484995618295808|title = hmmm i'd say about 213.36cm|date = August 10, 2022|access-date = November 7, 2023|archive-date = August 10, 2022|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20220810215613/https://twitter.com/MaddyThorson/status/1557484995618295808}}</ref>, last name (Madeline McButt)<ref name="lastname">{{Cite tweet|user = MaddyThorson|number = 1557483970677260288|title = McButt.
