Madonna continues to do her thing, and not to get good comments. Fans of the former Queen of Pop are shocked by the latest "fashion statement" of the artist, who at 64 years old wants to continue to draw attention but in ways that have not been well received by her fans.

Through her Instagram, she posted an IG reel and several stories in which she sports a black lace balaclava, matching bustier and a lot of bling, as well as bringing in her hand a riding crop, very much in the style of how she appeared last week at Art Basel in Miami.

Fans still don't understand her behavior in social media

Despite her efforts, it seems that Madonna is determined to continue losing fans, who now do not understand why she wants to hide her face. "You're an amazing singer and you don't need to do all this! It makes you look old and desperate for attention.... please stop!" one commented on Madonna's post, adding, "You're ruining your beauty!".

"Listen to your fans - be yourself, not this," implored another, while a third simply said her latest outfit "looks weird."

However, there's always someone to defend her from all her crazy antics, with one of her fans commenting that the former Material Girl has always loved to provoke since she started her career.

"Everyone with something to say about her looks: aesthetics are subjective, arbitrary and irrelevant to substance," wrote one. "What you're expressing is your discomfort with her actions. That's exactly what art is meant to do - provoke. She is an artist playing with contemporary media."

She added: "Hardly anyone on Instagram posts photos that look like their natural appearance. Ask yourself why you care so much. Ask yourself why it bothers you. Do you think she cares what you think? Do you know what she thinks of you? Nothing."

She's being compared to a 'sleep paralysis demon'

It's not the first time Madonna has worn the black lace balaclava, as in May she posted a video in which she smoked hookah while wearing the same outfit.

But her video, as expected, sparked TikToks and memes, some comparing her to a "sleep paralysis demon."
