Madonna


I read that Madonna’s response to people (tbf mostly arseholes) commenting that she doesn’t look like Madonna anymore due to the amount of work she’s had done on her face is that they are all ageist misogynists.

Does this mean that anybody who thinks i look like a baldy old twat in my bucket rain hat and anorak is an ageist, body shaming, man-hater?

Or do these things only apply to celebrities, or people who post pictures of themselves looking like twats on the inter web?

I’m curious is the only reason.
Post up a pic so I can tell
 
Of course she can do to her own body exactly what she wants and wear what she pleases but she is trying to pull the wool over our eyes. It's like saying I love dying my hair It's wacky and modern and empowering, but you are not doing it to be wacky or modern or empowering you are doing it to hide the gray. She is not getting that much stuff done to her face to be edgy, empowered or whatever she is doing it because she doesn't like aging. I would have more respect for her if she admitted this, but hey, she doesn't have to justify herself to me or anyone else.

I think there’s more to it than just this. If you’ve made your fortune partially by being controversial in the public eye, it’s arguable that it’s then difficult to step away from the public eye and all the corresponding scrutiny that brings. Of course, she can do what she pleases within the constraints of the law, but if you court attention then you can’t cry wolf if the response isn’t what you want or expected.
