Madonna, 67, Sparks 'Plastic Surgery' Debate With Racy Lingerie Christmas Photos

It was a 'naughty or nice' Christmas for Madonna, but the internet is debating more than her holiday spirit. The 67-year-old pop icon ignited a firestorm on December 24 after posting a series of sultry lingerie photos to her Instagram. The shoot, featuring her family, has drawn both praise for her boldness and sharp criticism, reigniting rumors of plastic surgery.

A 'Naughty' Family Affair

The photoshoot featured her twin daughters, Stella and Estere, and her boyfriend, Akeem Morris. Madonna sported several vintage-inspired lingerie outfits, from a pink satin corselette with fishnet tights to a frilly white nightie. In several intimate shots with Morris, the couple embraced the 'naughty' theme. "Santa wants to know... have you been naughty or nice? Merry Christmas everyone!" she cheekily captioned the post.

Backlash and Surgery Speculation

The images quickly drew criticism. Some accused the singer of "trying to cosplay a teen," with one social media user writing, "But it IS just weird wanting to look in your teens when you're practically in your 70s." Another commented, "How do you feel when you know you don’t really look like this in reality? Masking all this aging skin…"

Her appearance also sparked a wave of plastic surgery rumors, with users comparing her "new face" to her look at the 2023 Grammy Awards, which was described at the time as "puffy." "Plastic surgery is amazing!" one commentator wrote. Madonna herself had previously addressed the Grammy controversy with a joke on Instagram, posting, "Look how cute I am now that swelling from surgery has gone down. Lol."

Fan Praise: "Timeless Queen Energy"

However, many fans celebrated the photos. "She’s serving timeless queen energy this holiday season! Madonna never misses," one supporter gushed. Her Old Hollywood glamour also drew comparisons to pop star Sabrina Carpenter and the Marvel Comics character Emma Frost, also known as the White Queen, who is known for her lingerie-inspired costumes.
