Madonna Posts ‘Heavily Filtered’ Photo While In Recovery—Fans Are Uneasy About It

It appears the Queen of Pop is recovering just fine following her medical emergency weeks ago. Madonna has done an excellent job reassuring her fans and those concerned via her Instagram page. The 64-year-old recently posted an unrealistically flawless photo of herself hugging beautiful pink roses and got both snide and encouraging remarks in the comments.

Madonna also posted heavily filtered snaps of herself hugging a stuffed toy on her Instagram story that same day. In the photo, Madonna braided her hair into two pigtails and closed her eyes as she embraced the cluster of flowers.

Reactions to Madonna’s recent photo

“A single rose can be my garden A single friend my world. Thank You,” she quoted author Leo Buscaglia in her caption. Her comment section was soon filled with mixed reactions of fans pointing out her unusually smooth skin and others simply complimenting her.

“Roblox,” a user chipped, insinuating she looked like an animation. Another user thought she “was Ariana Grande,” while someone else wrote that she looked “younger” than her 26-year-old daughter and begged her to “cut off the photoshop.” However, others cheered the pop icon and wished her good health. “We’re glad to see you doing amazing, we can’t live without you… we’re so blessed to still have you with us. You’re such a warrior & a fighter,” someone commented with heart emojis.

Other fans were left uneasy as they commented saying she looked like a child. “How many filters die one need to make them look as though they are 12 years old,” one fan says. Another writes, “That’s a 17 year old.”

Madonna is trying to get back on tour amidst health issues

Madonna’s Celebration Tour was put on hold due to her medical emergency, but the 64-year-old singer plans to get back on the road. She announced via Instagram that she would be back in Europe to perform in October; however, her management does not support it. “Madonna told everyone she wants to do the whole thing soon, but her management team and her insurance company kicked back,” a source told Page Six.

A friend of Madonna’s also told the outlet that although she is back on her feet, the “Material Girl” crooner is still “weak.” “She gets exhausted when she walks. She was telling everyone she was well enough to do her US dates. However, no one wanted any sort of relapse and she was essentially overruled,” they said.
