Madonna's New Look

I am a little surprised someone whose career success was 99 percent image manipulation has so profoundly lost touch

She's coming to end Gaga.

[quote]She's coming to end Gaga.

After Gaga wins her Oscar.... and after Madonna's new album flops...

She's looking more like Pete Burns with each passing day.

Looks like Ava Gardiner during her sad alcoholic decline.

She’s a ridiculous old cow.

She’s taking over for Sophia Loren as the sad, old hooker whore look.

As they say in Kabbalah, “oy vey.”

Hyacinth Bucket?

She's covering her hands again.

Yikes. No Bueno.

Collagen lips.

If she didn't have the prolapsed-anus mouth, I could almost forgive the rest.

Who is responsible for the "Liverwurst Lips" look?

Here is the world's first reaction to her new look.

Why would Madonna want to look like some alcoholic named Ava Gardiner?

don't forget she has the nasty fake ass now too.

He looka likea man

Late period Miss Peggy Lee

I also thought of Ava Gardner.

Wtf she did to her face features?!

she enhanced them

What do all of the feminists think about a woman so powerful who butchers her face to look young? Just curious.

She has alcohol bloat. She really needs to cut down on the drinking. I mean, I know Gaga overtook her career, but come on now, did she really think she'd be on top forever??! She's selling face cream for Christ's sake!

It looks like her next persona is going to be Hispanic maybe Puerto Rican. Next thing you know she will be singing with a bunch of black guys in Spanish. Mark my words. You heard it here first

Black rap guys.

Madonna has somehow managed to change her face into a combination of a Carp's face and a Dog's ass.

She is still an innovator.

A clip from her new video. I shit you not.

R5 is on to something.

better pic.

I think she's bored shitless in Portugal and drinking excessively to pass the time

She’s channeling Big Ang now?

Is she alone? No adults? My analysis is a few years ago she stopped fucking, and the is the result. The huge swollen vagina or anus lips are in reverse proportion to her dusty wizened holes.

As for style hi-jacks, I'm getting Portugal meets Andes Princess Yma.

Her “new look?” Made for lovers of delusion.

Someone went overboard at Value Village. What a tacky wench.

What's with the Mama's Family house dress?

At least she's dressing like a middle-aged woman instead of a sexy ingenue. That is at least closer to her real age of senior citizen.

I'm sure it really accentuates her fake shelf-ass.

Oh Lord!.....why doesn’t she get her hands fixed at least and lose the gloves, they bother me. She was so judgemental and cruel to others on the way up poetic justice at this point. It’s sad, but a cautionary tale.

With her new butt implants and her new face, she's almost looking like Kim Kardashian, the biggest media manipulator since.... Madonna!

She looks like shit.....nomnomnom

Is Madonna wanting to star in the remake of Sextette?

She's wearing a wig.- you can see the lace lifting on our left side, by the temple. Such a strange quote to go with it.

Madonna destroys her legacy with every Instagram post.

....

She looks like Lindsay Lohan.

I wonder how she's going to tour? Is she even able to dance anymore? I guess she'll hire some amazing dancers to dance around her while she moves her arms around.

I think this will be her first tour where she sees a decline in ticket sales. Maybe she'll bill it as a farewell tour?

Each tour has sold less than the previous one. She said she wants to do a more intimate tour this time.

We luuuuuuurve the old lady frock, Fred Astaire hat, and big fish lips! What a look!

Her Italian roots are showing.

At least her gray roots aren't!

She look embalmed and the mortician put her in a chair.

She’s so youthful looking and amazingly gorgeous at her age❤️❤️❤️

R55 it needs the gap tooth smile but pretty close.

Ava Gardner? Good God, NO!

In OP's photo, Madge looks like she's going to Halloween party as Loretta Young in 1960.

She looks like a cross between Joan Crawford and Mae West. Their late 1970's versions.

R44 you’re right, thanks for pointing that out about lace. In that photo her eyes looked drugged and dead.

I always thought Vadge was at least sober though, I mean she never did drink to excess or do any drugs, she was too vain or too controlling, are we sure she is a boozehound now?

Well, she’s been using some substance, not sure which. It is weird because you’re right, always in control and tightly wound. Doesn’t seem to give a fuck anymore, not sure if good or bad ?

Madonna's New Look

She does this shit ON PURPOSE!

Why would she not be able to dance r48? She's not that old and she's still in shape.

Her body was damaged by the abuse it took by her. Held up well, but the SB halftime show was first time I saw her struggling physically. I remember because it was the first time I felt sorry for her.

Seriously r64? Jesus, that certainly makes it seem like rigorous exercise is not good for you in the long run. Damn, then I feel bad for her too. We can call her many things but she's not lazy and she did discipline herself very well. I could see taking up boozing and eating too if that happened to me. I just thought she was totally not the type to drink or drug, even when she's already rich and retired.

Madonna has free agency to do what she pleases with her body. She's getting so many worked up over her social media postings. You won't know what she's really up to until she's ready to reveal. I am loving it!

Did she get rid of that ridiculous mouth piece? I think she looks pretty...perhaps a little over done but she is in show business.

I really like an older woman who can relax into herself and accept her age and her goodhealth.

Butt implants? No. No white woman her age wants a big butt...that did not happen. Some of you demented fools just lie to pass the time.

Last time I saw a mouth like that it had a HOOK in it!

Has anyone got a better picture?

She's Carmen Sandiego?

"She Does This Shit on Purpose"!

HAHAHAHA!

I've found the hidden Instagram photo of Madonna and her butt, which caused her to be banned (the first time) from the social media site! Yes, the image below states, "Image No Longer Available"; BUT(T) . . . type "Madonna's New Butt" into your search engine of choice (e.g., Google), and . . . Voila! One is met by the infamous "Instagram Bans Madonna" photo!

She looks like a blow up doll.

R73 nails it -- it's very Lars and the Real Girl.

What a nightmare!!

Is that an inflammatory sex doll? Hideous!

I don't recognize her at all. She doesn't look bad, but she just looks like a different person. I'm not sure what would happen if she showed up at a concert looking like that--fans wouldn't know who she is. Her impersonators look more like her than she does now.

Her mouth looks like the wrong end of a shaved horndog.

That's hardly a good look.

Fuck my mouth hole!

MERLE OBERON REBORN

She was once a great beauty.

Madonna is starting to resemble Margarita Pracatan!

Bitch gone cray.

She looks like a mashup of Lindsay Lohan, Amanda Donohoe and the late Eleanor Parker.

Think she is an example of someone who should have died young to preserve her legacy.

God, she looks like a plastic mannequin.

Sad. She could have ended her wonderful career on a high note of motherhood, charity, dignity, grace. Even old hookers respect themselves more than her. Sad.

She looks like Kim Kardashian trying to look like Yvonne DeCarlo.

You can trace her recent problems back to 2014, when she appeared at the 2014 Grammys with a cane. This was right before or after she had surgery on her knee. Her face looks terrible and you can tell that she was in pain. I think she got hooked on painkillers at this time. She must still be on some kind of steroids today judging by the facial bloating.

I had a friend who had bad knees and multiple surgeries and he got hooked on painkillers and he got hooked on painkillers. He had the same zombi-like behavior as Madonna when he was on them.

She never had knee surgery. You’re thinking of Britney. The only thing Madonna broke (besides her brain) was her arm in 2005. The cane was just part of her costume.

[quote] She was once a great beauty.

Yeah, okay. lmfao

She has another photo up on herself in this wig and she looks like a goddamn alien with a lazy eye. Her face is completely destroyed. She looks like a stroke victim.

That was her "Ms. Peanut" phase.

Lol, r93!!!!!!!! Lol!

She has tape lifts here....such a bad choice:

I feel dumb for asking, but what are "tape lifts?"

If DL had a post of the year award, R93 would win.

It's this, R96.

Honestly, the last time I remember her looking gorgeous was at the Met Gala, in May 2015. In April that same year she kissed Drake onstage at Coachella and I think not being seen as the desirable female for the first time or being allowed to get away with the kind of things she did for years pulled a really big number to her ego.

She looks good there, R99. Not too skinny. Best weight for her face.

The Drake thing happened right after Met.

She's on my 2019 death list.

R99 it's so strange that photo is from 2015. She looks beautiful there and it wasn't that long ago. What the hell happened?

Jesus fuck! She looks like a goddamn alien.

Anyone notice that point in the bottom lip? She's had that for awhile. Is it some cosmetic fuck up?

Here's her retarded gay hairstylist who has made her look like shit since the late 90s.

Is she joking with this shit???

R104: Madge is channelling Mother Gin Sling for that pose.

Madge with Charleton Heston

Always recycling the classics.

Has her face always been so hairy?

Very Ava Gardner in The Night of the Iguana. But with an anus grafted on to her lips.

I really think she's going for an anti-look. She's spent so many years conforming to a certain pop star/celebrity image and she's over it. She's done it to death and she's going for the outrageous in the form of blow-up doll chic.

This will all be confirmed when her next cd cover is just a big close-up of her face with no makeup. How would that be for shock value?

R113 Don’t count on it. Madonna is courageous in many ways, but never in a way that sacrifices vanity. It’s why she can’t act. She is too self-conscious and has absolutely zero humor about herself and zero awareness that she is actually a fallible person who is getting older just like everyone else. She was delusional before she began and the world only poured fuel onto the inferno.

Look. She believes she hasn’t aged in 10 years.

Images at R115 makes it appear her bone structure has been altered. Is her face changing shape or it that just weird camera work? The two photos together don't look like the same person, and neither looks like her. A lot of these recent Madonna photos look like very different people at different ages.

R116 She posted that as her 10-year challenge. I would hope they are both her or else she really is off her old rocker.

It's cuz the pic at R115 has different lighting, filters, photoshopping, angles, etc...

WTF is going on with her face? It's like she has a new face every time I see her.

R40, Can't "fix" hands or necks. Hence, gloves, scarves, high-necked tops.

she destroyed her lips and thats sad. She needs to get the implants out of her body. All of them. what is she thinking! there appear to be no adults in her life who can tell her to snap out of it.

Queen of Pop has followed the King of Pop in self-mutilation. It’s pretty fucking tragic. Jackson, Elvis, Whitney, Prince all succumbed to their legacies and who knows about her health but she is physically mutilating herself. Let’s remember that Joan Rivers died in her doctor’s office getting (allegedly) a medical procedure. This sort of medical abuse should be prosecuted.

Lady Gaga will be 33 in March, 40 in seven yrs. Time marches on for all of us,

Don’t forget, I ate her box.

[quote] Let’s remember that Joan Rivers died in her doctor’s office getting (allegedly) a medical procedure.

What? There was nothing alleged about it, Joan did the poetic death she deserved having plastic surgery. It' s not a matter of speculation, I don't know how you got that idea. It was only 4 yrs ago.

did = died

R89 and R90 She actually had a hip replacement.

I thought it was an in-office procedure, you couldn't do a hip replacement in office.

Is that Madonna or Pete Burns OP?

Did she actually cut and color her hair dark, or is that a wig?

What is with the giant dents around her eyes??

She looks like a drag queen

Madonna is fast approaching “too ugly to look at” territory. It’s frightening.

I hate to see anyone mutilate themselves.

Make up photoshop etc- who knows what she really looks like unless you see her up close. It’s all part of her schtick I suppose. It’s pretty boring.

At least it seems she is going with an Italia/European theme. It appears to suit her, and it is actually her heritage, so she can't be accused of appropriation

I always knew that Madonna would become the late-period Mae West, I just didn't think it would happen until she was older.

They can make hands look younger. I'm surprised she didn't do it. It's actually not even that invasive compared to all the other shit she had done.

Does she still try to sound British?

R23, i’m a straight super feminine woman, but i hope to age like Patti Smith . She’s the coolest, she’s smart, creative, and completely lacks vanity. As a woman, THAT is rebellion, that is punk. Desperate attempts to look young and sexy are sad.

How many facelifts has she had? It's so tight. Does it hurt?

Joan Rivers died during an endoscopy.

Living in Portugal has been horrible for her career. She seems so disconnected. And she doesn't even seem happy there.

Maybe she'll move back in 2 years when Trump is out of office.

She says her new album is inspired by Portuguese musicians she has met we will see if it is any good. That is where her true talent lies, she can take someone relatively unknown and propel them into stardom, based upon her own instincts. Current pop girls still employ music directors, video directors etc, she used back in the 90s. Or like she invited a old boyfriend from college to NYC to play in her band, Steve Bray, he ended up producing some of her biggest hits. He was a complete unknown.

[Quote] This will all be confirmed when her next cd cover is just a big close-up of her face with no makeup. How would that be for shock value?

Nothing new or shocking about that, R113. Madge would just be following another's lead.

R142 Neck lift from the inside, I say!

R145 Annie Lennox and Madonna are not interchangeable. Lennox puts on costumed spectacles, too, but she has a clear and strong sense of humor when she is being over the top. I have never heard her say serious self-aggrandizing things, and she just follows her muses without desperately seeking acclaim. Madonna needs adulation. She thought she could do standup comedy, but she has no sense of humor about herself and she made it clear that the one risk she is not able to take is to risk being laughed at. That makes her vain to her core.

I agree with the poster who said that the onstage kiss with Drake was the beginning of the end. She couldn’t tolerate no longer being the desirable sexpot. Too bad she didn’t transition into more Adult Contemporary-type music like she was starting to with Evita, Bedtime Stories and Ray of Light. She can’t seem to let the “Queen of Pop” mantle go.

R146, All I was pointing out was that Annie already did the no-makeup closeup album cover. Madonna would just be copying her.

WOW... if you had not put her name in the headline, I would not have known who that was.

What was a blow back from the Madonna/Drake kiss? I saw the clip, but it looks like he was up for it or at least knew it was going to happen.

[quote] She says her new album is inspired by Portuguese musicians she has met we will see if it is any good.

Talk about a load of crap. No one is using Madge’s music video directors and her albums always turn into typical shitty pop records. She has no talent. She’s only not followed trends twice in her career. Everyone she worked with was well-known.

[quote]At least it seems she is going with an Italia/European theme. It appears to suit her, and it is actually her heritage, so she can't be accused of appropriation

She ain’t Portuguese.

I think she'll go the Dietrich route. I mean, she's already fallen of a stage.

I can’t really believe she thinks she looks good. In some photos it actually looks like she is wearing a rubber mask.

As for Lisbon, she does not seem to know / socialize with anyone in town. All one hears is activities connected with the children and the ocasional outing to a fado house (which is the more turistY thing you can do in Lisbon). I don’t know what was her social life in other cities, but it does seem like she is mostly alone (except for children, bodyguards and plastic surgeons)....

She's turned into Joan Crawford, drinking nonstop and torturing her adopted kids.

I think she went mad.

Even billionaires can get brain damage from untreated syphilis. Let this be a lesson.

I think she'll snap out if this mess by the time her record drops. Sad to see her like this.

Yes to whomever says, she only follows trends. Massive Attack, Bjork, Diplo, etc. Right now she should copy Rosalía since she's attempting to do urban meets folk.

R158 She doesn’t choose good ones anymore. It seems to me that in the 80s and 90s she chose artist collaborators based on the music they make, and then she felt old and chose them based on their youth and young fan base—Britney was a stunt, the Justin Timberlake duet was kind of a hit but not a good song, and then everything since the poor choice of Nicki Minaj has been dreadful and embarrassing. She seems so desperate for relevance that I wouldn’t be surprised if she recorded a song with Cardi B and R. Kelly this year and rapped it topless in a thong at a fundraiser for children.

She is making an album inspired by Portuguese musicians? Hahahaha!

I usually dislike her in interviews, and I can’t stand Kelly Ripa’s gratuitously perky persona, but Madonna looks kinda cute here. I think she should stay chunky and STOP MUTILATING HER FACE. Do you hear me, Madonna? Please please stop. Please. Stop. Please stop.

R159, uhm, she already recorded song with Cardi B and Quavo. It's called Champagne Rose.

R162. Sigh. Yes, of course she did.

[quote]She’s the coolest, she’s smart, creative, and completely lacks vanity.

You need to read that years old profile of Smith from the New Yorker, I believe. She's not as saintly as she presents herself.

And this is coming from someone who thinks that Patti Smith live is as close to a religious experience I'll ever get.

Where's the "No one has done more for Gay Rights than Madonna" Troll?

R165 Speaking of that, there were several people posting here on DL three years ago that “Donald Trump is the most pro-gay presidential candidate in history.” Can anyone here admit to believing that? His campaign invested quite a bit into that propaganda effort and way too many gay people fell for it.

Yes, WAY too many gay people fell for that lie, too.

It was so scary here reading them agreeing with that lie.

I love how someone said Gaga overtook her career. Gaga is not Madonna. Gaga overtook Cyndi's career sure.

Everyone knows Taylor Swift is the next Madonna right down to the implants and the snatch eating.

[quote]—Try again

Yes, try again, r168, you retard.

Why the fuck did she move to Portugal? That seems so random.

Taxes and she wants her son to become a soccer player. Madge was named in the Panama Papers. She's a big tax cheat.

I think she’s gone crazy. Bitch’s way too delusional. I must admit she looked very good and sexy when being on stage with Drake who is gay anyway.

Her new album and tour will headline all over the world because she’s Madonna and no other artists are bigger than her. However, the album will flop hard and she will continue suicide. I can’t wait

*she will commit suicide*

[quote]I must admit she looked very good and sexy when being on stage with Drake

No she didn't.

[quote]Her new album and tour will headline all over the world because she’s Madonna and no other artists are bigger than her.

The public doesn't give two shits about her.

Mamacita

She probably lost her last wits when Gaga was nominated for 2 Oscars.

She'll be 61 this year. Can you imagine the stunts this broad is gonna pull to prove that she's still sexy heading into her 70s?! Then again, she may not even make it to 70.

[quote]What? There was nothing alleged about it, Joan did the poetic death she deserved having plastic surgery. It' s not a matter of speculation, I don't know how you got that idea. It was only 4 yrs ago.

HUH? Joan was having throat issues and was being examined! What facts are you making up in your Truvada/Meth haze?

Madonna soon

The 10-year challenge she shared at R107 really show the weird, unnatural point that appeared at the bottom of her lower lip (as R105 pointed out). That's probably the result of injections.

And she SERIOUSLY needs to update that tired fucking hair. I was hoping the short black hair was for real, but sadly it's just a wig.

Now I see what she was going for with her lipstick in the OP's photo.

I really think that it’s pills (yes, perhaps opiates) as well as alcohol . She’s sadly a mess right now . I hope she can get help.

It would be extra tragic if Madonna moved to Portugal for some sort of legal loophole, easy access to surgeries or medications, etc., and used her son’s interest in a sport as her excuse.

Look at r169.

I bet Lady Gaga would think that was an amazing comeback too.

......

I hope her new music video takes place in a supermarket where she goes exploring all its wonders with a little girl and her red weirdo.

I hope Madge will make a music video with her in retirement home getting in on with some old geezer.

Just put Aunt Frieda at a table by herself.

No one wants to hear stories about how she went on a date with that guy from Air Supply once.

R185 LOL! Spot-on

In her defense (?) it must truly be exhausting to need attention & external validation from the time you are a teenager up through your 60s. Could you imagine? The crazy thing is that the next generation, growing up now with snapchat / instagram on a daily basis, are being bred to turn out like her - without the genetic predisposition for narcissistic personality disorder she likely had.

Nothing is ever enough and she's never fulfilled. I can't think of why else she would do this. ("My substitute for love" was a pretty honest lyric.) I suppose you can say that about a lot of celebrities. She just seems to be one of the more vivid examples to me.

Madonna is a soulless sociopath. Which is why she cannot act. The camera threatens to catch her true self. So she freezes up and doesn't know how to just be.

What you don't see in the Drake/Madonna kiss gif is his reaction as soon as she steps away from him. He looks completely repulsed and horrified, and it's on stage in front of everyone.

All drugs are legal in Portugal.

....

I agree with R116. Those photos don't look like they are of the same person, and neither looks like Madonna.

Wow r192 you're not kidding. I hadn't seen that before. He looks like he's gonna barf.

Lmao thats hilarious grandma sucked the bejesus out if him

Britney's life force only lasted so long

The Madonna hate is tedious and something she's had to endure her entire career. These endless threads are proof she's a threat which is ironic because she is all about being true to yourself. Anyone can objectively see that she is a phenomenally successful artist that very few will be able to match and gives some much of herself to her artistry. Her image and energy has forced her to thrive off of people who loathe and underestimate her and I can't wait until she releases the new album and tour. She is a force to be reckoned with and will not be silenced.

What she did to Drake was pretty disgusting. Imagine the reaction if a man did that to a female performer, even if it was prearranged between the two. She should have been called out for that, no matter the arrangement between her and Drake, it looked abusive.

If Drake didn't feel like he was assaulted why should anyone else? Snoozeville-- old story from 2015.

Why did she decide to kiss a gay man? Stupid cunt

Well she did talk about the kids in the year 🤣

Drake Before and After kissing Madonna

I don't think she kissed him. think she vomited down his throat.

Are those grilled Jumbo Hot Dogs on the plate in OP's pic?

The sad thing is if she eschewed sll the weird affectations like the grillz, fish lips and odd clothing, and you saw her on the street in basic hair and makeup you would think she's a pretty cool senior citizen. It's her thirst to be seen as young and hip which makes her seem so old and out of touch. I am the same age and she is serving as an excellent example for me whenever I get the urge to buy something meant for a 20 year old.

[quote] The sad thing is if she eschewed sll the weird affectations like the grillz, fish lips and odd clothing, and you saw her on the street in basic hair and makeup you would think she's a pretty cool senior citizen. It's her thirst to be seen as young and hip

No, we’d think she’s a crazy bag lady.

R116, I think some of it is that she's positively terrible at doing her own makeup and taking her own photos, and no one has the guts to tell her. And I think she posts photos from a while ago that she says are new. Remember how she was positively chubby just a few weeks ago, then immediately wasn't anymore? And if you look through her IG, some supposedly new photos don't have that lower lip injection.

The face does change as you age, but 3 1/2 years ago she looked normal. She hasn't looked normal for a year or so now, and something is going on.

She needs to go power lesbian. Severe tailoring and fully covered. If done right she'd look fresh and appropriate.

I hope she isn't losing money on her ridiculous "skin care" line. That would be truly sad, deluded, and pathetic. There doesn't seem to be anyone professional involved in that, just a bunch of toadies. Massively tawdry.

r210 I've been saying that as well, for a while now. She needs to follow Dietrich's example. Dietrich looks fabulous as an older woman.

LOOKED fabulous.

Too much facial fillers! Her cheeks are huge and she's looking like a cross between the Grinch and a praying mantis.

Yes, r212 and r213,

And even when she was young and at the age when she could get away with exposing more, I always that she looked fresh in her tailored looks.

As for her hair, she needs bangs accompanied by sleek contemporary cut. Leave the long blonde locks to Mamie Van Doren.

Madge! Girl! Social media 101... selfies should NEVER be taken from a low angle looking up.

Remember Madge’s gross line of Hard Candy gyms? lol They were shut down.

Forgot to add, what r1 said really encompasses what I've thought for awhile but couldn't put it as well as they did.

Would have, could have, should have, but she should have announced that her 2012 Super Bowl performance is her closing curtain. For good. I know some would say it should have been even earlier but the Super Bowl is her single largest audience.

R210 Yes, I agree absolutely. A sleek short hairdo and a well made, streamlined suit and tie with a couple feminine touches (red lipstick, designer baubles ) would do fucking wonders. She doesn't seem to realize what suits her anymore.

That Drake gif...Looks as if Madge's false teeth must have fallen into his throat.

R218 She just can't let go of the spotlight it's like an addiction. Her psychology is so alien to me. If I had even a fraction of her money I would purchase a villa in France, sip wine in the sun and read all day.

"Her psychology is so alien to me."

r221, if you're ever in the mood to explore her psychology, I highly recommend Andrew Morton's biography. But beware. Once you enter the world of her desire, discipline, determination and drive, it's exhausting. I don't know how Morton kept at it. I stopped reading it during her divorce from Penn. I was too exhausted to go on.

Those characteristics served Madonna well on her way up, and they've disserved her now. Add Desperation to the four Ds.

Maybe she's an aging relatively unfuckable former hottie who is dimming the cognitive dissonance with alcohol. I think she is lonely - even if its of her own doing. No man, few friends. One would think she could rebuild based on the nuclear family unit - her kids are young. Where are the girls? Boarding school, or Sintra? Madonna could park those girls at le Rosey and split her time between Geneva and Lisbon. Jet around for her career as well. She would fit in with the freaky old rich crowd in Colony and Gstaad. She might even make some friends. She richer than most of them and probably has stories to tell.

Call me, Madge.

R222 "Those characteristics served her well on the way up, and they have disserved her now ". Very true.

They said I looked like Boris Karloff!

She is clearly drunk/drugged out in her Instagram posts. And did anyone notice how out of breath she was in the Kelly Ripa clip? She could barely get her words out.

Probably the spanx.

Is she still hawking her overpriced snake oil ?

"It's big in Japan!"

Yep.

I mean...

Oh..

Now you know why she got the butt surgery.

You gonna pay me now, grandma?

....

Madonna needs to start throwing an annual Razzie Awards party. It's more her speed.

....

It's the same look she's had for the past 10 years - an old and desperate mess

Awful. Poor old thing.

Did she have her first facelift in 2004? 45 is kinda young for a facelift but she changed a lot after this....if these dates are accurate.

I remember her brother making a bitchy comment in an interview about how "they shouldn't have pulled it all so tight" maybe 5 years ago, but by then it was obvious she had a lift anyway.

It seems like she can pull it together in some pics and still look really good - but then goes nuts and takes these hot mess pictures for her attention starved personality disorder.

I'd say when you need Kim Kardashian more than she needs you, it's time to call it a career.

Those pix make me sad.

I've always respected Madonna's stardom. There is something to be recognized in the fact that she took her minimal talent, and through sheer will, talent and luck at spotting those who could advance her, and extraordinary drive, became the most famous woman on the planet.

There's a reason all of the great, professional athletes have to retire in their late 30s. Tom Brady is an outlier. It's because aging causes the body not recuperate from injury as fast as it could in your early 20s, to lose that split second between the body responding to the command of the brain to throw that pass with speed and pinpoint precision. That was Brett Favre's downfall; the reckless passes he could make and connect on when he was young turned into interceptions in his late 30s because of the loss of body response.

The same is true of Madonna but it's not only body, it's mental, too; what r1 said.

r241. the 2004 photo is actually 2002.

I smell fish.

is she insane?

Poor Madge went cuckoo.

Resurgence of Gaga is killing her.

I want movie where Madonna and Courtney Love play sisters.

Whatever Happened To All The Cocaine?

[R249]

Cyndi Lauper looks terrible in that photo.

At keast she's not running for president.

R248- Courtney would be mistaken for Madonna, and Madonna would be mistaken for Mae West.

Here’s Courtney last year- butch has a better plastic surgeon than Madonna.

Bitch, not butch.

Courtney looks awful.

I always thought she was smart enough to age gracefully and had embraced her imperfections. I wish she'd stayed in that vogue stage or would return to it. Smart, stylish pantsuits, minimal but dramatic makeup to enhance her eyes and cheekbones, a layered bob in her natural color or an artfully styled (think geisha) bun.

She's overdoing everything here and nothing works. I'm sure she'd despise sympathy, but she has mine. All the money in the world and no wisdom, no self-awareness. Proof that money cannot buy everything is right here.

100% agree with you, R255. She desperately needs a stylist (not to mention a life coach, ANYONE to advise her to stop with the drunken Instagram posts, etc.) Remember a few years back when she was at Ultra and asked the crowd if anyone had seen "Molly"? Yeah, no one thinks it's cool when old people do drugs.

Madge is the Trump of Pop. Everything was a scam. She just slapped her name on other people's shit. She was never smart. She winged it. She got lucky. She took off her clothes and did things for shock value. She got married without a prenup and got sucked into a cult that's been under investigation by the feds multiple times. She hands over a large portion of her money to them. She's an idiot. She's still doing what she did when she was in her 20s and 30s and it just looks pathetic on an old woman. However, that's all she knows how to do.

You mean Kabbalah R257? I didn't know that was still around.

I remember having the same reaction to an elderly lady wearing white go-go boots in church in the 60's. No, girl, just no.

Yep. They're behind her Malawi crap.

And voilà: ready for your daily Insta close-up!

Madge

Perhaps this is the final version?

Her source of inspiration is clear....

[quote]She just slapped her name on other people's shit.

She did write a lot of her own songs, especially in the beginning. Others have attested to this.

Ever since she had a falling out with her brother she has done nothing but make a fool of herself. The press would rave about how "smart" and "strong" she is - at least we now know where the smarts and the strength really came from.

She is sad. Just plain sad.

She's back to painting in fake roots.

R267, she looks positively retarded here.

[quote] Madge is the Trump of Pop.

What a stupid analogy. I don't remember Madge making it her mission in life to destroy lives.

R269 is a moron.

No one has done more for Gay rights than Madonna.

Like Trump, r271.

DLers are among the very few paying any attention at all. And this attention is mostly witless. Plus the horrifying stans and haters. Madonna doesn't do anything clever anymore to reward attention.

Well... at least she's not wearing grills (or we can't see them ) in OPs photo. That counts as an improvement, doesn't it?

My first thought when I saw OP's pic: Vivien Leigh Ship of Fools

So what have the last couple of weeks with the black wigs been about? They've been obvious with the lace and even some seams hanging out.

She needs an intervention .

I guess it's too late for her to go after the Joan Bennett role in the Suspiria remake?

She’s been acting weirdly lately cuz she hasn’t had a young big dick inside her for awhile now.

R279, you mean there's already a web down there?

So ugly.

She does it because she knows it pisses people off which is how she's been most of her career and its worked judging from most of the comments here.

Sad.

Jesus Christ. That legitimately reminded me of the clown from American Horror Story

I think that the makeup at R283 is pretty cool

It’s again a filter effect.

If you want a good idea of what Madonna would have looked like at 60 with zero plastic surgery, take a look at her sisters Melanie and Paula. Both are on Facebook with semi-public pages. They look like Madonna without plastic surgery.

Is there a thread on her siblings? Isn’t one homeless? And she had a falling out with her other brother? Does her family hate her?

Oh! My!

I'm glad she's wearing gloves.

Is she working at a outdoor Bodega selling lace tablecloths and incense?

Madonna's sisters are Prissi and Cissi. Yes, they both have Instagram and FaceBook accounts.

Much like how Joan Collins was considered the poor man's Elizabeth Taylor, but aged much better. Kylie Minogue has been derided as the poor man's Madonna, but she is actually aging better both in looks and music. She is only ten years younger but looks twenty, and she has had cancer.

She's showing off another face today. Christ. Sad.

WTAF is going on with her hair on the right?

Aren't Prissi and Cissi her backup singers? Their daughters Pissi and Crissi are adorable.
