What do you think of Madonna's body, specifically her pipes? Unfortunately, the quote that sticks in our minds is when her former husband Guy Ritchie said hugging her was akin to cuddling up to a piece of gristle. Well, he would know, wouldn't he? Or would he? If you believe tabloid gossip, the rest of the story goes that Ritchie was habouring resentment over his wife's daily four-hour workouts that left little time for him. The couple split up over a year and a half ago and Madge is now famously spending her time with 22-year-old Brazilian model, Jesus Luz, who we are going to guess doesn't have any complaints about cuddling up to his very rich, very famous girlfriend.
While we admit to preferring a slightly softer female physique, Madonna is 51 and she is likely very healthy and she looks good. Thus, she has little reason to explain herself to anyone, yet, she recently told British TV show, GMTV why she is so dedicated to her exercise routine.
"(I do it) for health reasons, and for aesthetic reasons. If I have to go out on stage and, you know, jump around in a pair of hot pants I better look good and also when I perform I'm like an athlete and I have to be in good shape. I'm not panicked, I just know what my job is and I know that if I want to be able to wear whatever I want to wear on stage then my body better look good."
What are your thoughts? Is Madonna inspiration or cautionary tale?
