Madonna Stuns at NYC Fundraiser with Kids, Shows Off Ageless Beauty at 66!

BBG News

On Tuesday, I took to my social media platforms to share some dazzling photos from a high-profile event I hosted – a fundraiser for the remarkable organization, Raising Malawi, which I co-founded with Michael Berg back in 2006. This non-profit close to my heart continues to make a significant impact in the lives of many.

As a lifestyle expert, I must say, at an intimate gathering in Manhattan on March 11, the timeless Queen of Pop displayed a noticeably firm facial and neckline, underscoring her unwavering commitment to wellness and vitality. This event, aimed at rallying supporters for Raising Malawi, encouraged guests to make regular monthly contributions to this noble cause.

Makeup artist Kali Kennedy accentuated the 1940s-inspired waves created by hairstylist Andrew Fitzsimons, while also enhancing the seemingly wrinkle-free, sixty-year-old appearance of Madonna.

As an overjoyed fanatic, I couldn’t help but be thrilled when the seven-time Grammy winner graciously invited five of her six precious offspring to the charitable event. Among them was my beloved 19-year-old idol, Chifundo ‘Mercy’ James Kambewa Ciccone, who enchanted us all with a heartfelt piano performance and a powerful speech about the hospital that bears her namesake.

In the year 2007, Mercy, an orphan of four years old who was battling Malaria, was taken in by Madge, a woman from Michigan. This act initiated a lengthy, three-year court case because Madge had been married and divorced twice previously.

I’d like to express a heartfelt appreciation to those friends and relatives of mine who came,” said Madonna, with an impressive following of 53.9 million on social media, as she titled her Instagram post.

Building on the work we’ve been doing for seven years, focusing on shielding the vulnerable kids in Malawi, particularly at the Mercy James Hospital which I established, has united us.

The self-made celebrity deliberately included her 28-year-old daughter Lourdes Leon, who is with fitness trainer Carlos Leon, as well as her 19-year-old son David Banda, in the photos she took.

I, as a devoted follower, had the privilege of witnessing Madonna accompanied by her 12-year-old twin daughters, Estere Ciccone and Stella Ciccone. However, unfortunately, there was no sighting of my dear 24-year-old son, Rocco Ritchie, who I share with my second ex-husband, Guy Ritchie.

Madonna received contributions, with the assistance of her friend Amy Schumer. April Townes, Amy’s makeup artist, might have done Madonna’s makeup as a token of respect towards Lady M.

43-year-old comedian divulged a heartwarming episode with fashion designer Diane von Furstenberg, who previously encountered pop icon Madonna at age 19. This encounter took place during a dinner gathering that von Furstenberg attended. She donned a substantial brown hat, and the guests were unaware of her identity… Throughout the evening, she engaged in extensive conversation with von Furstenberg’s mother.

On March 2nd, the actress from Desperately Seeking Susan met up again with Julia Garner, a two-time Emmy winner who will portray her in the biopic Who’s That Girl that she herself is directing. This encounter took place at Guy Oseary’s residence in LA, where they attended her 17th annual post-Oscars party.

Since last July, there hasn’t been any new news about the movie that Universal put on hold in 2023, which Madonna mentioned then was being rewritten by her and screenwriter Erin Cressida Wilson.

Previously, the actress from Desperately Seeking Susan directed two movies that received poor critiques and underperformed at the box office – Filth and Wisdom in 2008, and W.E. in 2011.

Madonna is planning to bring back her sixth studio album, Bedtime Stories, for another release. This album was previously nominated for Best Pop Album at the Grammys and produced two Top 3 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 chart with Secret and Take a Bow in 1994.

Instead of merely reminiscing about past achievements, this longtime AIDS activist is pouring her heart and spirit into the creation of new music. This music will be part of a sequel to her 2005 dance album, Confessions on a Dance Floor, with Stuart Price serving as the musical director.

Madonna, who continues to draw approximately 37.3 million listeners per month on Spotify, wrapped up the 81-date, $225.3 million grossing Celebration Tour on May 4, with an impressive conclusion.
