It did not take Madonna very long to answer all the hateful comments about her looks at the 2023 Grammy Awards on Sunday night.
The Pop Queen took the stage in a jaw-dropping rebellious look composed of a black jacket, white shirt, black tie, and a long matching skirt that featured a slit in the front.
The singer and songwriter completed the look with two pigtails and two braids on the front. Madonna was there to announce the devilishly entertaining performance of Sam Smith and Kim Petras.
The fearless and iconic diva said this before the duo hit the stage: “Here’s what I’ve learned after four decades in music. If they call you shocking, scandalous, troublesome, problematic, provocative, or dangerous, you’re definitely onto something.”
Madonna’s appearance immediately lit up social media with thousands of comments. Many fans and foes said they were confused and concerned by Madonna’s new face.
Some pleaded with the “Material Girl” songstress to slow down with the plastic surgery that has left her unrecognizable.
Others laughed and asked if it was truly Madonna or an impostor on stage.
The “Material Girl” singer grew frustrated by the noise and slammed the critics on Instagram.
The artist shared a sultry and scandalous video filmed backstage at the Grammy and penned a lengthy caption to give the naysayers a piece of her mind.
She began: “Instead of focusing on what I said in my speech which was about giving thanks for the fearlessness of artists like Sam and Kim- Many people chose to only talk about Close-up photos of me Taken with a long lens camera By a press photographer that Would distort anyone’s face!!”
She went on to reveal why her face looks so different by saying: “Once again, I am caught in the glare of ageism and misogyny That permeates the world we live in. A world that refuses to celebrate women past the age of 45 And feels the need to punish her If she continues to be strong-willed, hard-working, and adventurous.”
Madonna warned the critics that she was always unpredictable, unapologetic, and inappropriate, and she has no plans to change her rebellious ways.
She said: “I have never apologized for any of the creative choices I have made nor the way that I look or dress, and I’m not going to start. I have been degraded by the media since the beginning of my career, but I understand that this is all a test, and I am happy to do the trailblazing so that all the women behind me can have an easier time in the years to come.”
Madonna concluded her post by saying: “In the words of Beyoncé, ‘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. Bow down bitches!”
The world is about to see a whole lot more of Madonna.
She has announced that she will be flaunting her talent, creativity, plastic surgery, and body on her upcoming world tour dubbed the Celebration Tour.
