As Bedhead discussed last month, Madonna managed to see Miley Cyrus’s new look and Madge decided that she too needed a “grill”. As much as we say that Lady Gaga is always copying Madonna, we still have to remember that Madonna was The Original Copycat. So, Madge thinks she’s Miley Cyrus now. Madge thinks that she can do it BETTER than Miley. Is she right? These are photos of Madonna in Rome yesterday – she was visiting a new Rome branch of her “Hard Candy Gym”. Madge wore her grill. Because of course she did.
Madonna just couldn’t wipe the smile off her face earlier this week, and little wonder – the pop legend was keen to give fans and photographers a closer look at her distinctive grills. While the unusual fashion accessory is a common feature in the mouths of younger stars like Justin Bieber and Rihanna, Madonna – who celebrated her 55th birthday last week – clearly puts no limit on what she can get away with. Indeed, the Borderline singer cheerfully showed off her glittering grills when she paid a visit to the Rome branch of her Hard Candy fitness studio chain on Wednesday.
Wearing a black mini-dress, black tights and those fingerless leather gloves she’s so fond of sporting, Madonna called in to the Colosseo gym for what amounted to a quick inspection, but all eyes were inspecting her mouth as she made her across the threshold.
The singer and actress let her hair down in France recently at the Menton music festival before celebrating son Rocco’s 13th birthday with a game of paintball that included young boyfriend Brahmin Zaibat and her teenage daughter, Lourdes. Her own birthday fell on August 16, and Madonna celebrated by throwing a raunchy fancy dress party themed around the French Revolution.
With the party over she’s now getting down to the series business of managing her gym empire – with her latest visit to the Rome studio her second in as many days. The superstar previously ditched her workout attire for a chic designer outfit when she visited her fitness centre on Tuesday.
Madonna turned on the style big-time in a tight black skirt teamed with a black and white blouse and black Christian Louboutin heels. The singer accessorised with sunglasses, a gold chain and black leather bag as she entered the building flanked by two bodyguards.Madonna seemed in good spirits as she left her car and was surrounded by a throng of waiting fans and photographers as she rushed inside.
Yes, you read that correctly. Madonna’s 55th birthday party in France was “pre-revolution” themed. She dressed up as Marie Antoinette. And then she dressed up as Miley Cyrus for a trip to Rome. When did Madonna become less “the Mother of Reinvention” and more “that crazy old lady who is desperately trying to remain relevant”?

Wow! Look at her face! So young and fresh looking!!! I can’t believe she’s 55!!! She’s totally relevant and hip, er with it, I mean, happening… uh… dope… Quick – what are the kids these days saying for “cool”???
Hahahahaha, for a second there I thought you were serious. Honestly, I feel bad for Madonna – it must not be easy for her to have to face the fact that she isn’t the ground-breaking, uber cool young thing anymore.
This all just really smacks of desperation, IMHO.
Ugh. I feel second-hand embarrassed for her kids.
And, seriously, did she have to hike her breasts up to her neck? The woman just reeks of “desperate to be young”.
A little dignity would look better on her than a grill.
She is just inches from Mae West territory and that is sad. She is seriously diluting her incredible impact on pop music and pop culture by doing these ridiculous things like getting Miley grills. An era has ended – I am no longer envious of Madonna.
@Meredith,
Funny you mention Mae West. When I first saw these pics, that is exactly who I thought of.
But I must say I was impressed with her boob-positioning. You mean they’re hiked up?!
Comment of the day.
I think it’s perfectly easy for Madonna to be her age. There’s nothing desperate about her. She’s now got the time to bask in all her wonderful years of extreme success and enjoy every minute of it which she appears to be doing. The thing too is she has been successful for decades – not many can lay claim to that. She’s a brilliant business woman.
I prefer to admire a strong woman’s success rather than bash her for it with jealous comments.
Jealousy has nothing to do with it Sabrine. I’m not so far from her age, and I think it’s ridiculous. You wouldn’t catch me with a grill for love nor money.
It’s called dignity and she ought to try to find some.
Hahaha.. couldn’t have said it better myself. Methinks its time for her to grow up – I mean she doesn’t have to dress like a Grandma or anything but come on Madonna you aren’t 20 anymore either.
All I can think about is that she is my Moms age and if my Mom wore a grill I’d check her into an institution. #saynotothegrannygrills
She’s groovy! Lol
Grills and gristle.
Grills and Gristle – sounds like a great name for a Madonna inspired fashion line.
Wish I’d thought of that :0
LOL Tara~best comment so far!! Sounds like her new restaurant/sports bar name. Personally she reminds me of the super tall guy named Jaws from the James Bond movie “The Spy Who Loved Me”. This is NOT a flattering impression…
The Spy Who Loved Me!! Love this :0 a good name also for a drive-thru chicken place. But the cutlets go in your face!
+1
Wow. In 1999 she came out with Music and was rocking these looks for well over a decade before cyrus, beiber, and the rest. Long term memory issues much?
No offense…but what the hell is that running down her right arm in the top pic? a vein? jeez!!!
Madonna is ridiculous, she looks like a dumbass.
Red? Is that you? lol
She looks like a witch for Halloween in the first picture? The angle of the photo makes her nose look weird… Gosh, the upkeep must be tremendous.
Everytime I see her and Lourdes I think to “Fedora” the Billy Wilder movie of ’78.
Oh crap, you’re right. When Lourdes starts to wear gloves everywhere we’ll know for sure.
She looks ridiculous!
The word that first came to mind was pathetic.
Insane! She looks insane! Like she’s off her meds. Wow, just SMH at her. She’s lost it.
Miley and Madonna did not invent wearing grills.
Flavor Flav had a grill before they did.
Yeah, and I’m pretty sure Rihanna has been sporadically tweeting herself wearing them throughout the years.
I don’t think anyone thinks they were the originators of this stupid fad.
haha…She looks like she’s wearing some of those ugly fake teeth people wear to be funny. So weird that people now think this is a ‘cool’ look!
Madonna has always copied everyone and everything, and attempted to co-opt urban culture early on; this isn’t new. Miley Cyrus is not that relevant and it’s hilarious that she has everyone thinking she’s being copied when she’s completely unoriginal and copying what she thinks she understands. I don’t think being 55 means you have to settle into elastic waist pants, but Madonna is looking ridiculous. Certain things just don’t look good in middle age, and you have to pick and choose what’s hip right now. She looks asinine, and I think her daughter’s beauty and youth are making her feel insecure. It’s like seeing herself 40 years ago.
+1000. Her career is filled with tepid music and shameless appropriation. She’s never done a single original thing. Yet, she acts like she invented the things she’s ripped off because she’s the current oldest living person still pushing the looks.
As for reinvention, unless you’re talking about her pillow face she hasn’t really had a new look for 15 years (Ray of Light) and seems to have regressed back to her well-worn 80’s schtick.
The Original G, Lia, and Jayna are all the same posters. Nice try!
No. No,we’re not. There’s nothing about Madonna that would make me take on three anonymous personalities.
Doubt that. I have been on some CB threads with Jayna before where people were a little nasty (Will and Kate stuff, long story)
If Jayna were three people she would have used her other handles to cyberslap the mean girls. I dont think this buggery you speak of is her style. Is it yours?
Good point regarding her being insecure seeing her daughter’s youth and beauty.
Maybe she’s just being silly for her kids? Maybe she lost a bet?
Those are my theories and I’m sticking to them, because I don’t want anything else to be true.
I can’t let go of my love for Madonna.
Ha ha lost a bet – love it!
That grill looks gross. I wish she would turn the page already. It’s time for another one of her famous reinventions — hopefully into something less grating and annoying, with better music to go along with it.
A 55 year old woman shouldn’t be copying anybody, or be worrying about anyone copying her. Madonna could still be such a trend setter if she embraced her age. Her “cool” days are over, but she has the potential to bring so much more to the table; dignity, humor, life experience. As far as I can tell, she spends her life wishing she was Lourdes.
Yes! What happened to the strong, fearless woman she used to (pretend to?) be? She’s making herself look desperate, and it’s just sad.
Actually I know a lot of *cool* people who are over 50 (most just happen to be artists or creative types) so it is very possible to still be cool… If you act your age and embrace who you are. Obviously Madonna can’t do this which makes her look incredibly desperate and foolish. And wasn’t she showing her bra 20 years ago? Isn’t she done with that yet?
Actually it was more like 30 years ago but who’s counting 😉
Now it really feels that all her supposed strength was very much just an act. Doesn’t she really have anything better to do than “I’m shocking you with my grill”? If she wanted to shock people she should just let the wrinkles come and be old. That would be something new.
Agree with @Vesta-if she really wanted to be shocking and groundbreaking she’d embrace aging naturally.
It’s really sad that she can’t accept that she’s no longer 25. She’s had so much success. It’s a shame that she still is so ridiculously attention seeking.
I agree with part of your statement and I saw a lot of that with Madonna during her Ray of Light era, but Madonna was very cool in her 40s and could still be cool in her own way now. She’s different and I expect her not to be the typical 55-year-old. She’s a strong woman and marches to her own drum and is a pop diva, and I love her in her shows. I don’t need a tame Madonna. Dave Gahan is still taking off his shirt at 51 and nobody says a word in concert except scream. So Madonna can be different. I just never expected that hitting 50 and at the same time getting divorced to affect her so strongly to the point she messed up her face so badly at first and took up with babies and grills, and asking the people at a concert if they knew Molly. I mean, what happened to her? It is a midlife crisis I keep expecting her to snap out of, but she seems to be getting worse.
Exactly. I’m embarrassed for her. I’m not far behind her in age- and I want her to be someone who makes being in her 50s look cool and interesting-not chasing ridiculous trends.
Is she talking about “Molly” really? I thought Madonna was famous for “no drugs, no alcohol”?
Madonna, stop it! Now. Her daughter is gorge tho!!!
Agreed. I saw the picture of Lourdes and thought “Who’s that pretty Indian girl”. Then went “Doh!”.
I don’t get the grill thing. From a distance it looks like her teeth are rotten.
Lol. I was thinking the same for a moment when I saw her in the picture smiling broadly.
Or that she has a mouth full of metal braces.
That’s what it looks like to me as well! Metal braces. Nothing wrong with them if a person needs them, but in this case they look incredibly stupid!
LOL, meth mouth…
it just reminds me of my granny’s dentures, so the opposite effect that Madonna is aiming for
Those grills are not cute. It looks like she has rotten teeth.
Why would anyone want teeth that look like a meth heads. They make her teeth look dirty and gross.
Yes, exactly!
So. Damn. Ridiculous.
She was busting this in the nineties. Not a copycat. She was the first female star to wear gold tooths and grills. It is happening. She’s a pop star not Mrs. Romney. Go on Madonna!!!!
She looks fabulous. Lourdes is stunning wow.
I was just thinking that she was the one of the few pop stars back in the day other than some female rappers who wore grills so lets get off this copycat thing ok lol like really
+1
Madonna copying Miley? Please.
Thank god someone said it! Madonna had gold teeth during the girlie show and emmaculate conception days. Bow down b-tches.
She is just beyond tacky. You are not a young pop store anymore. Let it go, Madge!
*star, not store.
I just can’t.
The original try-hard.
Perfect description.
Whatever. I love her.
Lourdes is beautiful.
Madonna cannot just age gracefully.
she is what she is and has never been tasteful and discrete.
It served her well getting rich and famous, but might not be what she needs as she ages.
And I think she will always be driven for attention.
She is in great shape for 55 , but a large part of her looks are artifice.
She can never stop, and will end a laughingstock.
Yeah, shades of Norma Desmond or Baby Jane. It’s too bad really, I feel kind of sorry for her.
Yeah, I’m embarassed for her – this whole thing reeks of desperation.
Madonna’s behavior is pretty much the opposite of aging gracefully.
Wow..Lourdes is so beautiful. May she grow up to be nothing like her mother!
You mean hardworking, cunning, business savvy, confident, seductive but not conformed to society’s view on what seducative and sexy is and most of all: a good mother???
She has bad sides too but let’s not act as if she’s the devil incarnate for wearing a stupid grill.
And all of her children are said to be well-behaved and they have a strict upbringing so I don’t know what you expect them to become when they are already good people it seems. Thanks to Madonna, especially Lourdes. She is their mother after all and geneticts + environment are pretty hard to beat.
+1 You go girl!
Great post.
Oy, that is so not attractive. I adored Madonna right up until Ray of Light, and then I guess the rest of the pop world caught up with her. She was once dubbed the Queen of Reinvention, but lately, she hasn’t been reinventing as much as revisiting her old schtick, or worse, trying to blend in with the pop tarts half her age.
wow. she has become the embarrassing mom.
No she isn’t. Lourdes (and her other children probably too) already know that it is part of her job as an entertainer. She explained it to Lourdes and since her daughter is almost always with her (as are her other children) I assume they don’t care at all. She is their mom not ours so who are we to say her children must be ’embarassed’ with her?
Also, if they’re so embarassed, then why are Rocco and Lourdes often with her on tour? Visibly. Or Rocco with her on the Ellen Show when she’s in full ‘Vogue’ gear? Or Lourdes posting pictures of her mom on her blog? Although she doesn’t like her children seeing her grind on stage sexually, a grill is hardly the end of the world for a woman who has a Sex book and pretended to masturbate on a bed or hung on a cross. LOL.
As if she wears those grills when she’s working at home or relaxing and in ‘off-mode’. In her docu and other documentaries, you can tell she does these stunts merely for publicity because this woman WORKS a lot and hard and looks quite plain and tired when she’s doing business.
Not to Rocco. They were on Vine together recently and they were cute together. He obviously adores his mom and she him. He loves performing and so I think there is a tight bond there. He’s the one taking after her I think as far as loving to be on stage. The little ones, how could they be embarrassed by her. They’re small. She’s just mom to them. Lourdes at 16 is the only one that is probably mortified at times, but it doesn’t seem so on their vacation or at her birthday party. She seemed happy. At 16 I was mortified by my parents at times and they were conventional. Madonna at home is far different than the Madonna we see out for an event.
Who’s the corpse with the bad teeth?
LOLOL! She looks like one of the gals from the Meryl Streep-Goldie Hawn movie Death Becomes her.
lol….LOVE that movie and you are so right!
It’s funny, Grace Jones is nearly 10 years older than Madonna and is sexier and more ‘youthful’…
Grace Jones is everything.
like they say, black don’t crack
It’s a stupid fad but Madonna will copy anything to seem “relevant”. It only draws attention to the fact that she’s got a toxic addiction to attention-seeking and a completely overblown ego.
Her smile actually reminds me of Richard Kiel, the guy who played Jaws in the James Bond film The Spy Who Loved Me. He had a whole mouthful of metal, not just a sissy grill 🙂
Hahaha! A sissy grill, that’s what is is compared to Jaws 😀
Your so ****VAIN****- Carly Simon
It’s gone from ridiculous to just sad and pathetic. Nothings more unattractive than a woman trying too hard to be 20 again.
oh dear, she should have had the wisdom to retire as a legend instead of making a food of herself
This makes me so so sad. Die hard fan, but look at the state of her; her face alone is a train wreck. But then if you will see Dr Brandt, the man who has modelled himself on the creepy ghost preacher from ‘Poltergeist’, then what you expect? Yeah, he doesn’t look 70-odd, but then he also doesn’t look human so age is irrelevant! Madge, get a new cool, dignified but hot image and stop trying to be 25. You’re smarter than this bollocks.
these grill ,do they hurt like braces??they look painfull to me ,as madonna ‘s grill they look like those old gold cap replacements for teeth
I see Madonna is still expressing herself. 😉
Besides the grill, there’s the face completely deformed by fillers, and the breasts lifted to her neck. She looks utterly ridiculous and actually older than she is!
She has officially crossed from desperate into so, so sad.
What horrifies me the most is the top picture with the vein bulging out of her arm. Is it trying to escape?
EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!Her FACE.
Wow. In 1999 madonna came out with Music & did this well over a decade before mylie, beiber, & the rest. Tighten up people. Long term memory issues much?
It was gross and desperate then too
lame.
This is so try hard and sad.
Maybe it’s time for Madonna to quit pretending to be in her 20’s and start acting like the 55 (?) year old woman she is. She can be so tiring.
Grills look like braces to me. But I got to admit after 50 the teeth do start to migrate, so maybe she uses this to move them back into place.
UGH. I hate this trend. It reminds me of Tuco in Breaking Bad. :/
So. Fug.
Her face is making me nauseous.
I think it was VERY shady of Lourdes to tell her mother that this is ‘the look’.
Hahahahaha that’s funny though!!
Good one 🙂
Umm. HER FACE!!!!!! Holy crap. Too much. TOO MUCH!!!!!
I hate grills. They are so tacky and make your mouth look rotted out…However, I’m not going to fault Madonna for no longer being so original and boundary-pushing as she used to be. She’s been in the business for such a long time, at some point you kind of just…run out of ideas. She’s only human. It would be nice if she can stop with this copycat business (yes, I know she wore grills first… but she’s only just pulling them back out??).
Lourdes is GORGEOUS!!!!
And I so wish that Madonna would stop trying to cling desperately to youth culture, we all get old and those who embrace it get all my admiration. I so wish she’d go back to the 40’s and 50’s styling she had around the time Evita came out. It would really soften her look and body and she’d look younger and great.
Madonna is looking pretty again.she was looking so bad with the implants that I think she actually looks softer here and prettier than she has for a while, so I disagree with others. Her pillow face is gone. Her eyebrows are great. Her big eyes are back (eye job?), and I love her lashes and not heavy eyemakeup. Her face is more settled, and I like her outfit and hair. Why oh why a grill? Beyond her young gay fans who adore what she does on a juvenile level, no one else is impressed. She has so jumped the shark, and as a massive fan, I am so disappointed in so much of what Madonna has become in her 50s. I pray she can at least give me a great album one last time, because I no longer care what she’s up to otherwise.
Madonna isn’t always likeable but she was always fascinating. Not anymore. A freakin’ grill? It makes me sad, too. The cheek implants were the first thing that really made me sad and now this. (Sigh) I keep thinking if she found a more age appropriate man, someone she looked up to, that she would leave behind this gettin’ down with the kids phase, and become something interesting again.
Hi Jayna–I am also a HUGE Madonna fan. I love her and have been fortunate to see her many times. Here’s the thing, I have been a fan since I was 18, I’m 48 now. I stay in good shape and really take care of myself and no one ever guesses my age. I actually got carded earlier this year with no irony. I couldn’t have been more thrilled. However, if I showed up in skater kid clothes, I would look ridiculous and old. You can look fabulous at any age but you need to know what the limitations are. A Grill? Seriously? I hate to break it to her, but she’s not 25, 35, or 45 anymore. I don’t want to see Madonna dress like a granny, but I do want to see her as the confident fabulous 55 year old that she is. And concentrate on your fan base. You are not going to be pulling in 18 year olds anymore. We are all still here and want to hear great music from our Dive Queen!
Ugh. Ugly. Like there is food stuck everywhere on her teeth, or they’re rotted to the point of nearly falling out. What kind of mental illness would cause someone to do something like this to their looks? She was starting to look normal again, and then she became her own worst enemy.
I don’t understand why people give Madonna such a hard time. She is an inspiration to my mentally handicapped son and my husband Kevin likes her too…although he doesn’t LOVE her like I do.
I adore Madonna. I collect so much stuff of all her eras, have all of her music. My fandom is forever. But I’m not blind. I hate this phase of hers. I have been to all of her concerts in the 2000s and been in awe of her as a performer and as a woman in her forties and as a trailblazer from a young age on in a man’s world in the music industry. I haven’t always liked Madonna, but she has always been my favorite popstar. I loved her fearlessness. Her MDNA album, past a few great songs, was a waste for someone her age and fanbase. I even liked Hard Candy and many didn’t, but MDNA, no. And I didn’t like part of her tour. I thought it was selfish, not putting enough hits in when her album sold poorly and force far too many songs on the fans. I have never seen so many complaints about her concert on Ticketmaster reviews as I did MDNA World Tour. She was still amazing, but I think selfish in the setlist.
I fear that by the time I am not poor anymore I will not be able to go to a Madonna concert (a dream since I was 15) because of her insistence on singing recent songs. Especially MDNA, that was horrible. If she gets worse, what’s the point of going?
The visuals and dancing will always be great but I want to bop to good songs!
Bahahah. Hahaha. My mother is five years older than Madonna and I could never imagine her wearing grills. Give it up. This is absolutely terrible. She has definitely crossed over into the realm of sad and trying-way-too-hard.
Can you imagine bringing your friends over and your mom is sitting there with a bright grillz smile waiting for them
Sorry – I think she looks ADORABLE! I LOVE HER, have been a fan since that Borderline video came out in the 80’s, became an even BIGGER FAN when my little sister dragged me to one of her concerts because my other sister and she got into a fight (this happened twice – YAY FOR ME!)
Where can an ordinary woman get herself a grill – anyone know? I want one. My teeth are really bad.
A Madonna – Cruise coupling would be gossiptastic.
Oh goody. Out goes the dignity and in goes the grandma grill.
she’s becoming a loser. I’d be mortified if i was her daughter
She is so desirable on these photos. Sex icon adds danger to oral sex routine.
oh man… it just gets worse and worse with her. the plastic surgery was bad enough; but this grill thing is ridiculous. all i can think when i see them being worn is the bad breath they gotta cause — just nasty; not to mention way stoopid.
Grills look bad no matter who wears them. They just look like icky teeth! What a waste of money.
From Tom and Lorenzo……
How on earth does this look … good to you? How do you go from being a worldwide style icon, influencing major designers for decades, to … this: crazy old lady who doesn’t own a mirror? What part of this getup is pretty? Why do you think racing gloves will make everyone forget you have the hands of a woman past 50 when in fact, all it does is highlight how you’re trying to hide your 50+ hands, which only makes you look vain and silly? Way to tell the world that 50-year-old lady hands are something to be ashamed of, girl.
Don’t even get us started on the grill. What is this, 2003? Honey, that trend ship has sailed and this is only one more thing to make you look out of touch and desperate.
And the irony of it is, physically, she looks pretty great here. She’s in fantastic shape and her facial work has settled down. There’s not a reason in the world she can’t rock chic gorgeousness a la Sharon Stone, who’s the same age as her. Piling on the gloves and the jewelry and the gimmicks in order to distract everyone from your aging only draws attention to it in a negative way. How Madge, of all people, doesn’t know this by now puzzles the hell out of us.
Also: those shoes are hideous.
I read what you wrote I seriously doubt Miley is something Madonna thinks about. Who would?
Yikes. I almost feel sorry for her. ALMOST. Maybe if she wasn’t such a superficial cretin she’d read a book once in a while and learn something useful. All these needy ‘celebrities’ who must be photographed on a regular basis really need to be spending some of their ill gotten gains on therapy.
Oops. I saw the photo before I read the headline…thought Madge had a new set of braces on her teeth.
Shaking my head and remembering how awesome and relevant she was, up to and including “Ray of Light”.
I think she’s “Borderline…think she’s going to lose her mind”. If she thinks these teeth things look good.
huh.
ok who here’s old enough to remember when ole Madge interviewed Tupac Shakur for Baby Daddy but he passed and Carlos Leon won the … um .. prize?
If I’m remembering correctly didn’t Tupac decline after Lenny K hit it and quit it?
Well, I said possibly her younger gay fans thought this was cool. Guess what, I went on a pop site and they were mortified for her, not one saying it was cool.
The ageism here is kind of funny and ironic. This 50-something POP STAR wears her costumes and the usual wild outfits and get-ups, and is called try-hard, desperate, and most importantly, is reminded that she isn’t 20 anymore. (uh-oh. Better check the age limits in my state… I’m 21 🙂 But when an actual 20-year-old pop star like Miley Cyrus wears the costumes and fun experimental fashions that she does, it’s not only called desperate and try-hard, but she’s also called trash (and worse) and it means that There Is Something Intrinsically Wrong With HerTM. When Rihanna, who is about 23 or 24, wears what she wears, she also called try-hard trash.
It all just goes to show that no matter how old she is or what her background is, there will always be silly, boring little rules about how these women dress and there will be Problems if the Rules are broken. I say more power to Madonna, Miley, Rihanna, Cher, and every other female celeb who breaks the Ladylike Fashion ‘rules’.
I still say grills are ugly on everyone, though.
Not me. I loved Madonna at 50 on the Sticky & Sweet tour with her skimpy leotard type outfit and boots singing and dancing to the mashup of Four Minutes and Vogue. Her lessors couldn’t touch that performance and body. I loved Madonna in her last tour in her man’s slacks and white shirt singing Human Nature regarding she can’t be sexual in her 50s and showing her ass at the end as an Eff You to all the dried up granny remarks. I loved her in your face to critics about that.
I don’t want Madonna standing around a whole conert in a safe outfit just being a pop singer with no element of surprise because that’s not who she is. She doesn’t conform and I love that.
But I would even rather have Guitardonna back singing one of her amazing electrofolk ballads from American Life than see Madonna hanging out with a grill in her mouth and putting out some of the crap songs she did on her last album with generic processed vocals. It does make me sad.
Nothing Fails about her love for Guy – 2004 tour Guitardonna I love this song and it moves me the most because it’s how I felt when I first fell in love with my husband.

WORD UP.
She has no women friends, so there’s no trusted best girl to pull her aside and say ‘I love you so much but we have to talk about your look…You deserve so much better.’
Not true. Her best friend since before she was really famous is Debi Mazar, the actress. Their close friendship has spanned three decades. She just said the other day in an interview when asked about Madonna that they are like sisters and argue because they are both strong-willed. She is very close to her sister also. And she is close to Rosie O’Donnell. I’m sure she has other friends. Madonna doesn’t share her private life when she’s off stage much at all and doesn’t feel the need to.
Have any of them talked to her about the grill and such and how silly it looks? Who knows.
She is too old for this foolishness. Seriously?! This is just sad…
Do any of you realize that Madonna is in a different business than you. Seriously shut up all of you. “Showing” is her business okay. She doesn’t work at the library. If you all want to be sitting in rocking chair fine, but I want to be partying like Madonna when I’m 55. Seriously get a clue. Everyone calling her “old” here is really the hags.
Don’t you have a summer reading list to finish?
No, no, she’s absolutely right. Her (accurate) opinion doesn’t make her a middle-schooler…. although the name-calling at the end was childish, everything else she said was true.
Madonna was too old for the “kitten w/ a whip” routine 20 years ago. She was never a drunk nor a druggie, so why is she aging so horribly? Yuck! No wonder Goop can’t stand Madge’s pathetic ass.
I just can’t get past that ropey vein on her arm. If I had that, I’d wear long sleeves!
I feel bad for Lourdes. 🙁
STOP IT M!
Sad to see the self-possessed Madonna I remember from Borderline to Ray of Light so desperate for youth and relevance. Smells of Massive Insecurity.
I would be sad for her but I. just. cant.
