At the 65th Annual Grammy Awards, which were held on February 5 at the Crypto [dot] com Arena in Los Angeles, Madonna continued to astound her fans with her constantly evolving look. When she took the stage to introduce a performance by Sam Smith and Kim Petras, she essentially appeared “unrecognizable.”
The ever-ready to weigh in Piers Morgan maliciously posted a close-up of the vocalist of “Back That Up to the Beat” on Twitter with the remark, “I thought Halloween was in October?” He wasn’t alone, though, as many Grammy viewers also shared their thoughts about the 64-year-old musician’s appearance on Twitter.
On Twitter, fans talk about Madonna’s Grammy appearance.
One admirer exclaimed, “Whaaaaaat happened to Madonna’s face?” With images of the real Madonna in the backdrop, this appears to be a legitimate Madonna impersonator. Another person said, “She really [expletive] up her face.” Another joke said, “If Madonna is a 2,700-year-old vampire who eats babies and small animals alive, she looks good for her age.” Someone else asked, “Has Madonna been nominated for ‘Best New Face’ at this year’s Grammy Awards?”
A fan commented, “I don’t believe for a second this is an actual photograph of Madonna,” which was echoed by several other users. Another admirer stated Madonna had “Bratz Doll vibes.” “Madonna harming herself doesn’t make me hate her.” Another admirer stated, “I’m sorry everyone who thinks that Madonna somehow pressured by society doesn’t know Madonna.” Still another said, “I hate that we live in a society where she thinks she has to do this to herself.”
An Expert Plastic Surgeon Assesses Madonna’s Changing Appearance
To try and eliminate some of the rumors and find out what she could have done to contribute to her present appearance, many admirers and critics have been eager to learn what the professionals say about the “Frozen” singer’s new look. Many professionals in the industry believe she has had everything from “excessive filler and Botox” to a facelift and even a nose job, according to the Daily Mail. Dr. Michael Horn, a board-certified plastic surgeon from Chicago, Illinois, told the pub that he thinks she had recent surgery to achieve her current appearance.
“It seems like Madonna has had a lot of plastic surgery procedures over the years,” Horn conjectured. “It’s obvious that she had a facelift,” he added, because her skin looked “tight and pulled back with no wrinkle.” “Her eyes also seem smaller, likely due to being pulled during a facelift,” he continued.
“The most different-looking Madonna we have seen appeared at the Grammys last night,” he said, going on to say that he thinks she also had rhinoplasty. “Madonna’s natural nose fit her face well back then. This version has a pointed tip and looks overly thin, so it looks like she had a rhinoplasty,” he stated.
Has Madonna Received New Fillers and Botox?
Horn noted that there were “minimal facial movement” and no “expression lines and wrinkles” on her face, indicating that “Botox was also evident on many areas of her face” while she spoke. He went on, “The most obvious and remarkable change in Madonna’s face shape is that it now has a more V-shaped structure.” Over time, it appears that she has overdone filler, which has made her face appear fuller and obscured her previously attractive and natural bone structure. Her cheekbones seem abnormally high and are more noticeable than ever.
Is Madonna Getting Her Brow Fixed?
Additionally, Horn mentioned her hairline and eyebrows, implying to him that “she had a brow lift which is made more noticeable by her thin eyebrows, which were thick previously.”
Madonna Responds to Critiques of Her Appearance: “Misogyny” and “Ageism”
The seven-time Grammy winner shared a current photo of herself on Twitter on Tuesday, February 7th, along with the following statement: “My power and stamina are threatening the world.” My wits and my determination to live. They can’t break me, though. All of this is a test. The same day, she also used her Instagram account to respond to criticism of her appearance, which she thought overshadowed her statement recognizing Smith and Petras as examples of “fearless artists.”
She continued, saying, “Many people chose to talk about close-up photos of me taken by a press photographer with a long lens camera that would distort anyone’s face!!”
“Once again, I find myself engulfed in the glare of ageism and misogyny that envelop our society,” continued Madonna. a society that feels the need to punish a woman who is 45 years old or older for having a strong will, perseverance, and adventurous spirit. She said, “I have never apologized for any of the creative decisions I have made, nor the way I dress or look, and I’m not going to start.”
“Since the beginning of my career, the media has denigrated me, but I recognize that this is all a test and I’m happy to pave the way for other women to follow in my footsteps and have an easier time in the years to come.”
As Beyoncé famously said, “You won’t break my soul.” “I look forward to many more years of subversive behavior – pushing boundaries – standing up to the patriarchy – and most of all enjoying my life,” she said in her closing remarks.
In Thanksgiving photos, Madonna’s face is described by fans as “unrecognizable” and “looks like a Bratz doll.”
Only a few months ago, Madonna stunned the public by showing up at Thanksgiving with all six of her children: Lourdes Leon, 26, Rocco Ritchie, 22, David Banda, 17, Chifundo “Mercy” James, 16, and the twins, Stella and Estere, ten. Fortunately for her followers, on November 25th, the “Vogue” singer posted some photos to her Instagram account showing her enjoying the holiday with her family!
Adoring long, wavy, red hair and a black corset dress—quite the unusual Thanksgiving outfit, we must say—Madonna posted multiple photos of herself with her kids, one of which features the entire family posing for the camera! Fans of the “Hung Up” singer couldn’t help but comment on her truly “unrecognizable” appearance, with one saying she “looks like a Bratz doll” because of all the alleged plastic surgery, Botox, and fillers she *must* have had done, and many, many others pleading with her to stop! Her 18.6 million followers were grateful that she shared a little clip of her beautiful family’s Thanksgiving meal on social media.
Madonna is unrecognizable to some fans.
One admirer said, “Can’t even recognize Madonna anymore.” Another person said, “She doesn’t even look like herself anymore.” Why, oh why, are fillers and Botox everywhere? She has changed completely,” said one more admirer. Another added, “I don’t know what she did to her face, but the Madonna we want now is long gone.” Nice family, but Madonna has such an odd appearance! One admirer cried out, “Doesn’t look like Madonna at all!” Another commented, “Clearly that’s not the real Madonna.” Another fan remarked, “Artist formerly known as Madonna,” while yet another posed the query that many followers had been dying to ask: “What have you done to yourself?”
“No One Looks Happy” in the photos, according to fans
Some others believed that the family and the “Material Girl” hitmaker appeared incredibly depressed in the holiday photos. “Where’s the happiness? The smiles, where are they? Madonna is where? One fan remarked, “(All that work on her face has made her unrecognizable).” Someone more said, “These are the creepiest photos ever.” “Where is the Mother Goddess? Why does everyone appear to be so unhappy? Odd,” inquired another. “These photos don’t seem happy,” observed a perceptive fan. Another person said, “It’s really creepy how no one looks actually happy.” Another fan remarked, “The children look miserable and traumatized sad.”
Adoring public implores Madonna to cease her plastic surgery.
Some admirers went so far as to implore the “Like A Virgin” singer to cease getting cosmetic surgery done because they were so unhappy with the way she changed! “Whatever became of Madonna’s face? It appears awful. So sad,” a disgruntled fan remarked, adding a sobbing emoji to her post. “Madonna, you need to quit having surgery. It’s not a nice look, someone else begged. Another user pleaded, “Please stop ruining your once beautiful face with plastic surgery.”
It’s Not the First Time Madonna’s Look Has Drawn Criticism
A few months earlier, Madonna’s fans responded to Instagram videos of her on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in the comments area. She had gone on the show in August to promote her album Finally Enough Love: 50 Number Ones. “I loved her then and I love her now, but she should reconsider how she looks. Grow aging gracefully, Gorgeous Queen, please, not like this,” pleaded a lifelong follower of the performer.
Madonna looks alien because of how many fillers she uses. If she hadn’t changed her face, she most likely would be extremely gorgeous. Someone else remarked, “As someone who grew up on Madonna, this is HARD to look at,” and someone more stated, “Her plastic surgery is terrible.” Ouch!
