Madonna, 63, faces backlash over steamy bedroom photo

[mangalavara]

Conservative YouTuber, Abby Shapiro, tweeted this controversial statement, "This is Madonna at 63. This is Nancy Reagan at 64. Trashy living vs. Classic living. Which version of yourself do you want to be?" and she included a photo of Madonna's steamy pose on a bed and a quaint family photo of Nancy Reagan with her grandchildren.

Looking at the woman in the light blue top and blue dungarees in the Reagan photo, I think a lot of men in a certain part of the world would say she looks like a whore.

Do you think releasing this photo was Madonna's attempt to stay relevant and in the spotlight? What do you think?

If she wants to stay relevant and in the spotlight, her body needs to grow some curves, I think.

Abby Shapiro is now facing backlash herself, and she's accused of ****-shaming Madonna by Madonna fans, and numerous others who don't approve of her criticism of the Material Girl.

Madonna, 63, Faces Backlash Over Steamy Bedroom Photo As She’s Compared To Nancy Reagan At 64

My question is, do you agree or disagree with Abby Shapiro's criticism of Madonna? Personally, I wouldn't dress like Madonna in her steamy photo or how she dresses otherwise, and I never have. I'm more modest in the way I choose to dress and present myself. That being said, I still don't approve of ****-shaming women. I also don't approve of people sticking their nose where it doesn't belong. Admittedly, I can't help but wonder why Madonna would post a steamy photo like that if she wasn't trying to draw attention to herself. Surely she realized that there would be some people who would criticize her for the photo. It is provocative.

Of the two, I find Madonna much more attractive and relevant.

But then, I don't see a problem with a 63 year old being steamy. In fact, I think it's a good thing.

On the other hand, who is surprised when Madonna is controversial? She sort of made a living on it.

I remember overhearing an older lady at church say that Madonna would make Jezebel blush, and then this pious lady lambasted Madonna by calling her the "Queen whore." She also said that Madonna should stop pretending to be a Catholic, because she's no better than the sleazy prostitutes on the street corner. I didn't say anything in reply because I didn't feel comfortable putting myself on the spot when everyone around her was shaking their head with approval and saying "Amen!" Several of the parents spoke up and said that their children weren't allowed to listen to Madonna. They all agreed that she's a terrible example for teenage girls and young women. I was never banned from listening to her or to other artists while growing up in the 80s. I just didn't like her music.

**yawn**

We need a word that combines "yawn" & "ew".
"Yewn"?

If I look half as good as Madonna does at 64, I'll be happy.

If I look half as good as Madonna does at 64, I'll be happy.

And she can carry a tune!

Imagine having a job where you're getting paid to pretend to care about these things.

I suppose we take the opportunities life gives us, but I don't envy Ms. Shapiro for her job in the slightest.
