OMG Madonna un-photoshopped. This obsession with perfection is out of hand.

1. Photoshop can make any corpse look like Madonna

The beauty of technology!

[rocktivity]

2. I don't refer to Lady Gaga

as "Mandonna's Granddaughter" for nothing.

P.S. Remove the "?w=500&h=375" from the pic's URL and it should come up in the post.

4. you know...i don't see anything wrong with either of these photos. she looks like a woman

crying in color and black & white. they're both interesting photos. the b/w one, with the post-processing work is more appropriate for the ad. the color one is more interesting to me.

7. I was just thinking.....

I am 47 and I wish I looked that damn good. **sigh**

[nashville_brook]

9. 44...and me too! sigh, is right.

[IcyPeas]

5. maybe the one on the left is photoshopped .............

to make her look worse? :shrug:

[MrScorpio]

6. She's going the way of Iggy Pop for sure

A little body fat is not a bad thing

[mitchum]

14. I expected her to break into "No Fun" or "Cock in My Pocket"

[Swamp Rat]

20. LOL!

:D

8. An individual photograph is untrue ...

as much as I dislike Madonna ....


A photograph is a moment out of time. It might be generally true, completely false, or somewhere in between

The photo on the right is retouched.

The photo on the left, due to the extreme light angle (which most people will not understand the meaning of) exaggerates the size of the veins on her arms.

Neither might be true of how she looks on the street.

10. I think she looks pretty damned good for her age. Most women

I know who are her age don't look nearly as good. Of course they don't have the $$$ she has. She seems to be very strict on herself when it comes to her diet and exercise. Not a bad thing always, but she could definitely stand a little more meat on her bones, IMO. That ages her more than anything else.

[Saboburns]

11. She looks very, very healthy

Good for her, it's not easy.

[Codeine]

12. She looks fine.

Dig those arm muscles! That's a fit upper body.

[seabeyond]

13. yes, she looks good at her age, she is fine, so why the fuck do they need to make her 2 decades

younger.....

thru photoshop

people are defending her looks at her age. hooyah. absolutely. and the need to take two decades off her to make her presentable to the public is an issue.

[Shell Beau]

17. It is the industry unfortunately. The shop the hell out of even teenagers.

Sad really.

[Generic Brad]

15. She looks terrific for 72

[GoneOffShore]

16. We've always retouched pictures - stop whining.

[FormerDittoHead]

24. At least they don't use the expression "air brushed" anymore.. n/t

18. I find it entertaining that many liberal women

enjoy attacking other liberal women because of their success. They will excoriate them over the most minor of critiques.

Not only are these two diffrent editiorial shots, the treatment the B&W photo received is no different than the touchups the majorty of actors get when securing headshots, if you have the $.

There's a word for women who are overly critical of other women...I believe it starts with a 'J'...

[seabeyond]

19. i believe you are about as off as you can be. but then you wanted to make a post of ugly

so you made up your own story in order to present the image you wanted to, regardless of the truth.

hey, kinda what we are talking about on this post

and this picture isnt a "touch up"

[elehhhhna]

22. Wow Jack you're an armchair psychiatrist? KEWL.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

21. Fuck, her ARMS, what's wrong with her ARMS?

(The face looks normal, actually.)

[Onceuponalife]

23. What's the matter with her arms??

She has junkie arms, ewww.

[bigwillq]

25. Give me those arms any day.

Damn. Mine don't look nearly as good.
