Madonna Nude Pic – Why?
Madonna, who turns 64 in August, worked with @Beeple in May to launch the world’s first Madonna NFT – which rather than being a full-on Madonna nude video was a three dimensional, digital version of her body and vagina.

Madonna explained after criticism that her ‘Mother of Nature’ NFT artwork was intended to empower women around the world and represent the female form ‘doing what women have been doing since the beginning of time – giving birth’.
Some fans and NFT youtube channels on social media weren’t impressed.
For those who she understands may have been ‘weirded out’ by the NFT art, Madonna also commented: ‘On a more existential level, I’m giving birth to art and creativity, and we would be lost without both. A lot of thought and conversation went into creating those videos.’
Last week Madonna bought her first NFT, a Bored Ape.
That may be a sign Madonna wants to show a deeper interest in non-fungible tokens beyond just nude pics of herself – she now joins a long list of many celebrities who bought NFTs such as those in the Bored Ape Yacht Club collection.
Did the nude Madonna NFT mark the top of the bull market cycle for NFTs? BAYC hit an all time high floor price of over 150 ETH in early May just before Madonna released the video – and today have lost over 33% of their value, with a 95 ETH floor on OpenSea marketplace.
