I think it’s the fact that she looks like she’s been botoxed within an inch of her life. Rather than embracing her age (think that picture of Helen Mirren in the red bikini) she’s running from it, and as a result looks worse than ever.
Madge needs to embrace being fifty and accept that there are 25 year olds now in ‘her’ place now in the music industry and evolve forward...not try to hang on to 1983. And the smart girls on top now in the music business need to invest well; surround themselves with honest people; and learn from Madonna’s (and others—think Cher for one) mistakes...and learn to age gracefully. Helen Mirren rocks...she looks her age...but with a healthy gusto that she (HM) is comfortable in her own (read ‘own’) skin.
