The singer who shocked the world with her book ‘SEX’ has redefined herself once again, this time as a sexy 63-year-old woman who refuses to be pigeonholed
“Thirty years ago, I published a book called “SEX.” In addition to my nude photos, there were photos of men kissing men, women kissing women, and me kissing everyone. I also wrote about my sexual fantasies and shared my view of sexuality in an ironic way.
I spent the next few years being interviewed by narrow-minded people who tried to shame me for empowering myself as a woman. They called me a whore, a witch, a heretic and the devil,” wrote the “queen of pop” recently. In 1992, when the Madonna published ‘SEX’, a love book with groundbreaking images, shot by photographer Steven Meisel, the singer was 33 years old.
However, what do the 33-year-old Madonna have in common with the 73-year-old Madonna of today? Both have been insulted, humiliated and criticized for openly expressing their sexuality. Before, this was because of her job. Now, it’s because of her social media.
The work of the artist is well known: Madonna continues to wear the crown of the queen of pop. She is also the best-selling female artist in history, surpassed only by The Beatles, Michael Jackson and Elvis Presley. Beyond that, he is an idol, a star, known in all corners of the planet.
Throughout her career, she has been associated with two words: transcendence and reinvention. Now, however, the public has access to pieces of the artist’s life that until now remained hidden. Thanks to social networks, Madonna has been “reinvented” once again, this time as a sexy 63-year-old woman in tight clothes, who shows off her intimate underwear and collection of vibrators with complete naturalness and flirtatiousness.

As she once stated: “My pictures are very popular: “People thought that one day they would wake up and not be there anymore. But they were wrong: I will never go away.”
Madonna’s sexuality has caused discomfort since the beginning of her career. Initially, she chooses Madonna – virgin, in Italian – as her stage name, with which she begins to flirt with the theme of religion from the beginning. On her second album, in 1984, she released the single ‘Like A Virgin’, where she dealt with the provocative themes of virginity and female sexual desire.
In the 1980s, MTV appeared. She seized the moment. The artist’s music videos were all about sexuality.
Three decades have passed since the release of Madonna’s first album in 1983. And we continue to see a Madonna who enjoys the art of sexual provocation. Now, she is breaking yet another social taboo as a woman over 60 expressing her sexual desire.
Madonna breaks down cultural barriers, long considered biological, such as the myth that menopause is the death of a woman’s sexuality because she no longer has the ability to procreate. Here Madonna stands tall and breaks the stereotype. She shows herself as a sexually active woman who continues to dance on stage, compose and create as if she were 30 years old.
