SHE is the Queen of Pop and shock – and Madonna has lived up to her name with her latest bizarre behaviour.

The singer posted a video on Instagram of herself sitting naked in a bath with rose petals, calling coronavirus “the great equaliser”.

Madonna said: “That’s the thing about Covid-19. It doesn’t care about how rich you are, how famous you are, how funny you are, how smart you are, where you live, how old you are, what amazing stories you can tell.

“It’s the great equaliser and what’s terrible about it is what’s great about it.”

But the 61-year-old’s puffy, wrinkle-free face baffled social media users almost as much as her rant.

Here Emma Pietras looks back at Madonna through the years to see how she has frozen time.
