Criticism of All Appearance-Bashing Comment Trolls
"Will Serve as a Pioneer for All Women"
American pop star Madonna (64) criticized malicious commenters who disparaged her appearance.
On the 8th (local time), Madonna posted on her social networking service (SNS). In the post, Madonna pointed out, "I am suffering from ageism and misogynistic stares," adding, "The world refuses to celebrate women over 45 and instead tries to punish them."
Madonna took the stage on the 5th at the Grammy Awards to introduce performances by LGBTQ+ singers, drawing attention for her changed appearance compared to the past.
In response, some netizens left comments on Madonna’s SNS disparaging her looks, saying things like "obsessed with plastic surgery," "don’t destroy yourself," and "where is the Madonna from before?"
Madonna criticized this by saying, "Many people are ignoring my words of gratitude to LGBTQ+ artists and only talking about my close-up photos taken with a long lens camera that can distort someone."
