Madonna made waves at the 2025 Met Gala on May 5, not just for her fashion choice, but for a noticeable return to a more natural, softer look that had fans and critics buzzing. At 66, the Queen of Pop embraced a more refined aesthetic, toning down the dramatically plumped cheeks and lips that previously sparked controversy.

Her transformation came after a wave of backlash starting from her 2023 Grammys appearance, where her puffy face triggered widespread speculation. In response, Madonna hit back on Instagram, writing: “Once again, I am caught in the glare of ageism and misogyny that permeates the world we live in.”

Later, in a February 20, 2023 selfie, she cheekily added: “Look how cute I am now that swelling from surgery has gone down. Lol.”

Her Met Gala ensemble was a sleek cream silk suit by Tom Ford, designed by Haider Ackermann – perfectly aligned with the year’s theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” and the “Tailored for You” dress code. She completed the look with smoky eye makeup and a cigar, fully leaning into the edgy elegance she’s known for.

Adding to the buzz was her red carpet debut with 29-year-old boyfriend Akeem Morris. Although the pair previously appeared on the August 2022 cover of Paper magazine, they didn’t publicly confirm their relationship until July 2024, when Madonna posted photos from their Independence Day celebration in New York.

Madonna, who has six children, including Lourdes Leon, was once again at the center of attention – this time not for controversy, but for a stunning reinvention that had many fans applauding a more classic version of the pop icon.

Madonna’s Met Gala appearance sparked a wave of reactions online, with many social media users weighing in on her refreshed look. While her appearance has been the subject of harsh scrutiny in the past, often criticized for being overly enhanced and unrecognizable, her Met Gala look drew a different mix of attention.

On May 6, 2025, a Facebook post by Entertainment Tonight garnered plenty of praise as fans appreciated what they saw as a return to a more natural version of the pop icon. One fan enthusiastically wrote:

“She’s mother.” 

“She looks fabulous for once I am so pleased to see how great she looks!” another commented. A third user chimed in:

“She looks fantastic. It appears she has had some filler removed.” Someone else noted the positive change by saying:

“That’s the most Madonna’s looked like Madonna in years, praise the Lord!”

However, not all the feedback was kind. Some critics continued to express disapproval. One user remarked:

“I didn’t know that was Madonna! She’s not looking so good.”  

“She’s 66! I guess after a certain age cosmetic surgery won’t help and you have to cover up,” another wrote.

A third even drew a dramatic comparison:

“Reminds me of a Vampire from the older Vampire movies.”

Among the sarcasm, one comment stood out for its blunt tone:

“She looks great with her old face back....whew I thought she ruined it.”

Despite the mixed reactions, one thing is clear – Madonna’s evolving appearance continues to generate buzz, and many fans seem hopeful about her embracing a more natural image again.
