Madonna Shrewdly Plays the Victim Card

Conservative News DailyFebruary 10, 2023

You can’t craft a career like Madonna’s without playing the media … and us.

The Material Girl She didn’t have the most captivating hooks or the best voice. She boasted a little of everything – an attractive figure, a radio-friendly sound and lyrics that nailed the zeitgeist.

Her greatest talent? She was able to grab people’s necks. She was a rare peer in this regard.

Time hasn’t dulled that instinct.

At 64, the star, who is loved by the world and has all the resources that western society can offer her, is now a professional victim. She’s following in the footsteps of Meghan Markle, who proved you can claim victimhood status no matter your wealth, beauty or privilege.

Madonna introduced future Grammy winners Sam Smith and Kim Petras on Sunday’s Grammy telecast. The shocking sight that viewers saw was not related to the Satanic performance by the pop duo.

Madonna looked puffy, distorted and her face was impossibly smooth. it didn’t take a plastic surgeon to note the singer has had some work done. Memories of the late Joan Rivers’ face floated to mind, as did fellow pop superstar Michael Jackson.

So Twitter did what Twitter always does … weigh in on the subject with less than kind results.

It’s only natural. She was most popular in her youthful years, when she showed off her curves on MTV and other media. She Literally, I wrote a book entitled “Sex” To stay young and lean, I worked out feverishly.

It worked.

Her sexuality became an integral part of her brand, as well as her songcraft. That’s hard to leave behind as the calendar pages pass.

Madonna, like so many stars before, medically delayed it.

Now, as the public reacts to her decision, she’s going on the offensive. She refused to age gracefully and her critics must be punished.

My power and stamina are threatening the world. My intelligence and my determination to survive.
But they won’t break me

She was quickly embraced by the media. Reporters echo her cries. “ageism,” Despite the fact that many laughed, comedians ridiculed President Donald Trump over his skin color.

The New York Times contorted itself into a pretzel to say Madonna’s visage was the singer’s latest blasts of performance art, Be empowering until the end.

…whatever her intentions, the superstar has gotten us talking about how good looks are subjective and how ageism is pervasive. It doesn’t matter if she was trying to make a statement, or simply to look younger. “refreshed,” almost doesn’t matter. If beauty is a construct, Madonna’s the one who put its scaffolding on display.

Vogue, the magazine, not the name of Madonna’s perky smash, similarly Her side was supported.

Instead of focusing on her rousing speech, however, which was all to do with radical self-acceptance and celebrating those who don’t conform, news outlets and the Twitterverse alike decided to hone in on her “unrecognizable” This is the appearance of Madonna amid thinly veiled accusations about extreme plastic surgery. Madonna, true to form is not having any of it.

Broadcast TV reports also followed suit.

Why?

Liberal tastemakers couldn’t turn on the pop princess, at least not yet. She’s been an “ally” For all the right reasons, from abortion to LGBTQ+ Nation. Scribes will do whatever it takes to get her back.

Here’s why they’re wrong.

Madonna could have been brave and accepted her wrinkles while defying beauty standards.

“Hey world, this is 64, and I’m loving every second of it.”

This would be powerful, as a former sex symbol looking down on Father Time. Yasss queen! Instead, she held on to her youth with all of her might. It is now backfiring. Sadly.

She’s just mad we noticed.

Buried under the star’s new look is a terrible truth. Western culture allows men to get wrinkled up without any collective tsk -tsking. Clint Eastwood, Clint Eastwood and Liam Neeson are among the most famous aging stars. The cruel insults, however, are kept under control.

Attracting more attention for the sinful act of getting old, female stars, including rock stars and actresses, is a common reason why.

Madonna could have defied the imbalance and dare us to mock her for facing the reality we all live with.

What a subversive choice! Instead, she chose the surgical path, which was only available to the wealthiest.

Madonna addressed her “changes” Social media

“I am happy to do the trailblazing so that all the women behind me can have an easier time in the years to come.”

Trailblazers don’t assume the fetal position and lash out at detractors. They continue to move forward, unaffected by the taunts coming their way.

Does she really want future Madonnas to spit on their faces in order to appease our youth-obsessed culture or is she just imagining it?

If so, that’s the most alarming part of Madonna’s new pose.
